drsamuel84 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I hate bashing the guy because I appreciate the year he had for us but this is obviously him playing the only leverage he has left. Macc is playing this right, why bid against ourselves? If he had a better offer he would've taken it right now. Sorry Fitz you coming off a little desperate now.

Bleedin Green Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 If he simply wanted to retire for any of the number of good reasons NFL players have been doing so younger and younger these days, like Brick, I could certainly get and appreciate that. If he really wants to play, but is just being pouty because he thinks he deserves more than absolutely anyone who actually pays the money thinks he does, then screw him, he can have fun watching from home.

Adoni Beast Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Good. Thanks for last year but we're not winning a championship with you anyway, so lets save the cash for people who will help. On that note, Mac could have easily have made room and paid him for a year and made his contract cap friendly and cut him after this year. The fact that he didn't makes me think he has something up his sleeve...and its not Geno Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Especially because by all accounts, the Jets are the only one who even floated an offer. Beggers cant be choosers...but they can retire.

FidelioJet Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Could it be a face saving move for him? Knowing the Jets are going to take Lynch and their offer is going to be pulled...and no one else is going to sign him.. So instead of being disgraced as a guy that bluffed and lost...he simply retires and says it was because he didn't get the ridiculous amount he demanded?

Bottom line, if you don't want to play here, I don't want you here. This!! Fitz is being offered $10 Million Dollars to play football and acts like this is an INSULT!!! $10 MILLLION DOLLARS............ Insulted... What a Joke!! I blame his agents. Their job is to gauge the market and to get their client as much as they can without distorting his thought process. EMMMMMBARRRRRRRRRRRASSING!!!!! Good Grief!!!

Fitz's strength was getting the ball out quick, leadership and knowing the offense. Not really anything else. Surely these skills aren't exclusive to him...

AFJF Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 If he bails, QB spot is wide open with no viable replacement on the roster. Draft a pro-style QB like Cook? Go get Glennon? Hoyer or McBrowns guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Jet Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 LOL at people giving him sh*t for this. Do people even watch Fitz play? I can fully understand the guy being reluctant to come back for anything less than he wants. I'll call it a bluff when we see it's a bluff. He doesn't strike me as someone who was stupid with his money, I don't blame him for putting a high price on his healthy. That said, I fully support the Jets on this. He's not worth what he's asking for, especially with no long term solidity which he's admitting himself with the retirement stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
