Since Marshall hasn't made the playoffs he must be worse than guys like Troy Brown and Ted Ginn (2 SB appearances), right? Both had kick return duties in addition to WR. Brown played some CB too. Bad examples and not really relevant to begin with considering they're not QB's who have never made the playoffs in a 12 year career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, if you want to talk about "multi-purpose" guys.....Fitz is a better runner than Geno. No QB ran for more first downs/attempt than him last year, not even Russell Wilson topped him in that category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longer than any of Fitz's runs. If you extrapolate that out, he ran for 544 yards which is more than Fitz. Geno is basically Michael Vick in his prime whereas Fitz is more like an old John Elway.

slats Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I'm a little surprised that players gravitate more to the outgoing, gregarious, social QB over the mercurial, introverted one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't missed any time and he's clearly been in contact with the receivers all offseason. But what if he plays bad? Sure in camp it'll be a Fitzpatrick love fest but if the team gets off to a bad start and he's part of the reason it could get ugly for him. At least with Geno no one will have any expectations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't perceive there to be true hate for Fitz(JoeWilly12 excluded) . Its just that some fans think we've seen his ceiling and if that wasn't enough to crack the playoffs how's he going to elevate this year. The Jets will have a clearly tougher schedule and DC's will have a year of the Jets version of the Gailey offense on film. Now Geno on the other hand there's tons of downright hate towards him.

Maxman Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 2 hours ago, AFJF said: Marshall and Decker made a "please come back, Fitz" video in the same locker room where Geno was while Fitz was absent. Decker and Marshall miss camp time together when Geno is trying to make some headway, but it has "nothing to do with Fitz" (wink, wink). Decker says publicly that Fitz is "the best QB for this team right now" Marshall is taking pics with Fitz the day before reporting while Fitz is still unsigned. Plenty of love for Geno on the Internet...not a ton of it from his top two WRs. Well they should take pay cuts since Fitz wants to be overpaid. They can pay him because the Jets don't seem to want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FO has a set value on the guy and they are right to stick with it....now if players want to pay him then that's fine but strictly from the cap space we have now?

I'll take this kind of running any day: I don't think he was ripping Elway either. I think he was comparing him to an older player who could still run and get a short first down as to Vick-Geno who can rip a 20-30 yard run.

He knows the Jets only other option is Geno, so he's working from a position of strength as he's already been named the starter. Sure, Fitz could've signed by now, but he hasn't. I don't know why, and I do wish he had, but all that matters to me is that he's there to compete when the bullets start flying. He'll sign the deal when he's ready.

Villain The Foe Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 2 hours ago, Jetsfan80 said: Brandon Marshall is a QB slut. Whoever is throwing him lots of passes lately is "his boy". Whore. And what, do you really think Geno would snap that no playoff streak for Marshall? Fitzy is his best shot. Just let it happen. Maybe in 2017 Marshall will be whoring himself to Hackenberg or Petty. That "best shot" statement is pure opinion. Fitz had a legit shot last season. One of the best Jets teams talent wise especially on offense, one of the easiest schedules in my 20 years of following the team, the qb considered the "best shot" has never done it himself while having 10 consecutive cracks at it...

bealeb319 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Fitz probably takes the money right before the jets pull their offer. He has nothing to lose by waiting it out at this point in hopes we pay him more. I don't see him ending his career though after the season he had last year it was probably the first time he felt like a real NFL qb Sent from my LG-D850 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
