This was bringing back the second HOF'er that the Jets have drafted. Riggins was never brought back. It just looks good and feels good to have Revis back in green and to retire in green Yea it felt real good seeing him get torched by Hopkins and Watkins too.

prime21 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I would like Fitz to come back but no way should we pay him 2/36. We would be lucky if he came close to any of the numbers he put up last season. It was a Fitzmagical season but he won't be able to get better than he was.

SoFlaJets Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 So it comes down to this; either the Jets sign Ryan Fitz or this family doesn't spend dollar one on watching the 2016 Jets. If Geno Sh-it somehow manages to be under Mangold's butt taking 1st team snaps in September I will be doing something other than wasting my precious time, energy, money, and emotions watching one more year of no super bowl not to mention or even a playoff appearance from the New York Jets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 What a situation we are in 2016 discussing a 33 year old QB hitting free agency and ending all hopes of a successful season. I love the Jets lifelong fan but theres never a dull moment here. God Bless us ALL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which I was eviscerated for. Right again, as usual. Your scenario was completely unrealistic. Why would Fitz's agent go for that late in the season when he knew Fitz would have a lot of value if he just waited another couple of weeks? It was obvious he was having a good season. Any agent worth his salt wouldn't let his client sign for cheap when he saw a big payday coming for waiting until the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike135 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Besides, may not be the most important point, but... no Fitz = opportunity for Devin Smith. Marshall, Decker, Enunwa, hopefully a healthy Amaro combined with a legit deep threat QB to make Devin an option would be damn fun to watch.

God Bless us ALL. 33 years old doesn't mean what it meant 10-15-20 years ago JW12, especially for a guy like Fitzpatrick who hasn't taken the hits that a guy who has started 11 years worth of NFL games. Fitz has only started 3 complete seasons at QB-the wear and tear isn't as extensive as say what a guy like Peyton and Eli and Rivers and Brees have taken.

All I heard is the Jets weren't interested in anything until after the season. Show me some evidence to the contrary and I'll gladly consider it but everything I read put it on the team. Slats can enlighten us since he said at the time only a moron would try to sign him before season ended. We got into it pretty good back then. But being right is its own reward sometimes.

A poll to ban jgb from JN if Fitz doesn't resign here seems appropriate. The soppy diatribe we've all had to endure for his crusade of self-righteousness ought to dictate it so. I think he called me a "retard" at one point for suggesting there's other options than paying fitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
