    Fewell optimistic that Fitz will play

    Bills hope to have QB Fitzpatrick back for finale

    ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP)—Bills starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick(notes) will test his sore ankle this week to determine whether he can play in Buffalo’s season finale against Indianapolis.

    Saying “we think he’ll be better,” interim head coach Perry Fewell was optimistic that Fitzpatrick can play on Sunday after missing one game, a 31-3 loss to Atlanta this past weekend.

        I hope the game is blacked out locally, if Fitzpatrick is starting. I turned down free tickets like I did for the Pats for a good reason, I see.

        The only thing Fewell is good for now is fulfilling the Rooney rule...and I'm not racist.

          Swell, maybe we'll score more than 3 points against backups now.

                  Who even cares, Perry? This game is a joke. The Colts aren't even going to be making a half-hearted effort on the field.

                  Fewell would be better off playing Brohm, because we've pretty much already seen everything that either Fitzpatrick or Edwards have to offer. Neither of them is the future of the team - they're well established as thoroughly mediocre quarterbacks.

                  The only somewhat unknown quantity on the QB roster is Brohm. Best at this stage to see if he's worth developing for next season. If Fewell doesn't play him, it would be a big mistake.

                  This lowly cart.... it hits harder and has a higher yards
                  per play average than the Bills' offense!

                    Fitz gives us a better chance at winning, Brohm gives us a better chance at a higher draft pick.

                      Honestly, Fewell is an idiot...unbelievable.

                        There is no reason to start Fitz over Brohm other than Fewell wanting to get one more win and being stupid enough to believe Fitz is a winner.

                        I doubt Brohm could beat the Colts, but at the same time it is my opinion he deserves another start.

                          I am not convinced that is true.

                            I'm not trying to be defensive, but more so for conversational purposes... Which option would you realistically assume would give you the better shot? A seasoned veteran who has been in the NFL for 5 or so years, or a 2nd year player making his 2nd career start?

                              Fitz gives the team a better chance due to his experience and it would be very demoralizing to get beat down by the Colts 3rd team. they want to win this week. wanting to win is no reason to call a coach such bad names.
