Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Mac caved on this one, that's alot of coin for a 1 year deal, 15m with incentives? with no other bidders in the room, I valued Fitz as a back up to teach Petty and Hack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have loved to see Geno get his chance this season, but I will support whoever is QB'ing for this team. 10-6 last year with Fitz, and the chemistry can only improve in year two. J E T S! :Look, Geno will get his chance. Maybe even this season.There are injuries esp the way Fitz plays. And Bowles is not the kind of HC who will countenance mediocrity. If Fitz's play is terrible he'll go with BAP. And that's what I like about him. I really think we can win in 2016 with Fitz. And now we're giving it our best shot. So much for the naysayers who predict we'll lose most of our games. We're at least going for it. Not over-analyzing and being pessimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleedin Green Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Meh... nothing I find overly exciting, but certainly don't have anything against it either. Simply put, my expectations for him are not very high, but the Jets would still likely be worse off without him. In the end, at least he got signed today because if he wasn't here for camp, then it absolutely would have had to been time to move on. Now it's going to be a matter of who the Jets like better between Geno and Petty in a little over a month from now. I also wouldn't be at all surprised if Petty gets some "random" unexplained injury at the end of preseason that lands him on IR for the year.

cant wait Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I think it's a gross overpay but it buys the jets the most important thing they need right now and that's time for the young players to develop. Putting fitz out there should keep the wolves from howling like they would if the jets started out 1-5 or 0-6. personally I'm just happy that we won't have to hear about the legend of ryan fitzpatrick beyond this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JETSfaninNE Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 So I think there is enough evidence now to know that Macc really operates against the deadlines. He likes to draw these things out to the 25th hour. I hope Fitz proves me and everyone wrong and lights it up against the top defenses. Personally I've had a nagging feeling all off season that Fitz won't stay healthy if he was our starter this year which kills me when I see fully gtd. Hope I'm wrong about this but its a gut feeling.

joewilly12 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 DUMB move by an organization that hasnt won anything since 1969 and fans wonder why? Look no further signing a 34 year old gypsy journeyman QB who has never sniffed the playoffs. J-E-T-S SAME OLD JETS making poor decisions that have cost this organization for years. I hope Geno Smith beats him out in camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupz27 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Great another year of unwatchable football with that goon under center. Unfortunately for us Jets fans the Jets schedule will expose him for the fraud that he is, and this will make Macc look bad, and put a lot of pressure on Bowles when this team can't beat the good teams on the schedule early, and Bowles will have to make a decision whether to stick with the loser Fitz, or give the young Geno 1 last chance to prove, or disprove he has developed. If Bowles keeps plugging Fitz in week after week with the Jets losing 5, or 6 of the first 7 games he should be fired IMO, but we will cross that bridge WHEN it comes.

faba Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Jets management has shown for this coming year they think Fitz gives us the best chance to succeed- not saying we will with the schedule we have but it really can not be questioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I can't knock the deal, Geno is like the ultimate boom or bust project leaning heavily away from the boom lol. I didn't want them to lock 35 - 40 million into Fitz. But they were special on offense last year. Now Fitz gets a chance to prove he can beat the top teams and if he does, he will get a big 3 year contract next year. And the Jets will be happy to pay it. Otherwise they can walk away and look at Hack or Petty. Camp will be a lot of fun now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetlife33 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 If you didn't want Fitz that's one thing, but to say Mac caved is silly. He imposed a deadline and offered a ONE year deal at 12 million. Less years and dollars that Fitz wanted. Fitz is the one who caved and ran to florham park right before the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
