AFJF Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Of Course Fitz having best snap to pass time helps, but none of it will matter much if they keep turning it over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I can hardly wait how bad our oline suddenly becomes when Geno or Petty get back there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the Stat Man!! And, yes, I'll avoid the "with the best pass blocking OLine FitzScatterGun can't even complete 56% of his passes" argument because, let's face it, if Smith were playing it wouldn't be the best pass blocking OLine...

Yep, even with Fitz's quick release, I've been pleasantly surprised with the O-line...especially the right side. Good job keeping it on topic. Far too much to ask a few folks.

I think they do a decent job of moving him around back there at times so that probably limits the pressures. They also ran quite a bit last week which would limit pressure as well.

Spoot-Face Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Mangold (to the O-Line): "Alright guys, our priority this season is to keep Fitzy upright. If we're gonna win, we need to keep him healthy." Fitz: "Don't worry guys, I've got a plan. When I snap the ball, I'm gonna quickly throw it to the other team. I've got this."

Or maybe he just intends to do that in the Red Zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New York Mick Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Maybe Fitz should take a half a second more to actually look at who he is throwing the ball too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxAF Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Interesting stat AFJF. Wasn't aware of that. O-Line has held up well. D-Line 1st week was scary. They need to return to their potential. Hoping the Jets turn it around this week especially since it's my first trip to the stadium this year.

He can't. Because if he waits any longer, he won't be able to reach them. Most of his passes are "back shoulder" (lol) passes as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet Nut Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 And yet we have a thread trying to blame the OL for allowing too many hits on Fitz as an explanation for why he's played poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough to say if it's a fair argument or not. Prior to last week's game, Fitz was number 1 in the NFL in getting rid of the ball in 2.08 seconds, so I'd like to see how the line does when he's holding on to the ball for 3-4 seconds. Same as last season, their sack numbers are low because Fitz gets it out quick. That being said, if he's getting it out quick to the other team, it doesn't do a whole hell of a lot.

We saw a bit of that last season. Leading up to the Oakland game I believe Fitz had been sacked twice, maybe three times, in the first 4-5 games of the season. Geno came in for Fitz and was sacked 3 times in less than one game. In fairness, few first team reps could have contributed....or it may have been Geno being Geno.

BigRy56 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 This is not super surprising to me. We have a good offensive line and Fitz is great about avoiding the rush and getting the ball out of his hands quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was half kidding but it was said. He was also the least hit QB last week, the one he used for his evaluation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
