Coastie Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I dust off my Fitz Bills jersey on occasion when he is starting and the Bills aren't playing. I am sure I will have a few chances this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Defense is unreal and they have good weapons on offense. Fitz always will give away a few games. How do people still think the narrative is going to be different than the other 15 seasons? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would take some work to look it up, but I don't think he's ever had a defense like this one before, so he might not have to be his bad impersonation of a gun slinger. I get it leopards don't change their spots. I'll be routing for him and WFT this year. Edited August 13, 2021 by qwksilver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a journeyman QB that has had one of the greatest runs in pro sports for someone with his comparative ability levels to the elite players. Please stop acting like he is going to be anything different than what he has been. A QB that can put up numbers and win games but once teams catch up to him, a QB that doesn't have the physical skills to overcome that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsherd Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 So for those of you that have the Athletic sub , how do you find out what your next charge will be? I signed up for it last Aug for $1.25/month deal, it should be coming to an end this month. I have checked "My Account" but it only has the past billing info. I wanted to know what my subscription fee will be going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2nd header on that page is "Subscription" and should list your next billing date and payment amount. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry. They chose the wrong industry. It's a dying breed. This has happened to many industries and it will continue to happen. Might be MY industry next.

Those 2010-2012 rosters were laughably bad. So true. People love Fitzpatrick because he is an awesome dude and he is funny. He is also smart and a good leader. But he has always been sub-par as a QB. He WILL throw a pick if the game is on the line. But he always makes it interesting. He is great entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I love Fitzy but man, that W-L record is brutal. He's also about the only guy I'm not mad at for having seven kids because at least he can afford them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benderbender Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 They still have haven’t pinned a single Fitz thread like I suggested years ago. The response at the time was something like, “there aren’t THAT many Fitz threads every season.” Here is proof they won’t end. To the Bill Braskey of TBD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sub par quarterbacks, don't have 35,000 passing yards, and 220 TDs lol He may be physically limited especially compared to guys like Rodgers or Allen... But he's got a better arm than Fromm I'd say his 220 touchdowns would say he's a pretty good quarterback with limitations .. certainly above average and it's not like he's been on great teams his whole life There's some 90 some quarterbacks in the NFL He's been one of the top 25-30 for a decade+.. I would never say that's subpar Chase Daniels been in the league for over a decade and thrown 261 passes ... And He's respected... Maybe you can call a guy like that sup par..
