Popular Post chirorob Posted June 2 Popular Post Share Posted June 2 Now he is someone I would want to hear in the broadcasting booth. He played forever, on tons of teams, tons of coaches, tons of different offensive systems. Very intelligent, went to Harvard, I believe he had the highest Wonderlic score for years. 12 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuscanyTile2 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Congrats to Fitz on his retirement. And while he flamed out here, he gave us the only excitement we've had at QB (other than Mike White) in the past decade. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CrazyCarl40 Posted June 2 Popular Post Share Posted June 2 I know there are a lot of opinions on this guy, but that one season was probably the most excited I’ve watched as a Jets fan in a long time. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Beerfish Posted June 2 Popular Post Share Posted June 2 late 7th round pick from harvard, played in the league for many years, never good enough to be a long time starter but for sure good enough to take over from guys that got hurt or faltered. Made a ton of money, quite an accomplished career. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Warfish Posted June 2 Popular Post Share Posted June 2 The 2015 Jets were the most fun I've had as a Jets fan since the AFCCG's under Rex, or the Chad/Vinny era before that. For that alone, I thank and appreciate him. Shame 2016 was so mismanaged. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post UntouchableCrew Posted June 2 Popular Post Share Posted June 2 People like to hate on him because of the 2016 holdout/contract stuff but... 1) Considering he played in the Ivy League that's a hell of a career. 2) I love the moxie he played with. Tough, hardnosed guy who played football like he loved the game. 3) He's responsible for the best QB season we've seen as Jets fans in the last... 20 years at least? I wish him well in retirement. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggs Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 82 plus million in career earnings. Very smart guy with limited talent who figured out how to maximize he's value and stick around. He had some great moments and he seems like he loved being a team mate. Love to see him get a gig broadcasting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’d be a natural. I know Fox is going for the A+ name brand with Brady but I’m not so sure his personality will translate to the booth. Never found him terribly interesting when he spoke. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady tells a story, "yeah, and then, we had all the plays on video, and BB was mean, and we won, and I went home to my super model wife and our goat." Fitz has stories about 10 coaches, good teams, bad teams, funny stuff, comebacks, teams that disappointed. He's more of an every man (ironic, he went to Harvard). A 7th round pick who lasted 17 years. Brady doesn't come off as interesting to listen to for 3 hours at a clip once you get past the initial few games. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 17-year career with 9 teams. 223 career TDs. Not bad at all, especially for a 7th round pick. Now he has a Harvard econ degree and a wife who also went to Harvard to lean on. Not too shabby. Rest easy, Conquering Hero. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your boy Sanchez may have thrown some playoff TD passes that Fitz never got the chance to, but Fitz's career only just ended whereas Sanchez hasn't thrown an NFL pass since 2018. Sanchez's career spanned about half the length of Fitz's career, despite the former being a top 5 pick. I think Fitz wins in the end. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark's legacy is that he held back a Super Bowl caliber team, IMO. He didn't play for 17 years for a reason -- when he didn't have an elite team around him he wasn't good, and frankly wasn't very good when he did have a Super Bowl caliber team around him. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
