All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
If this deal gets done, there is no question Chan likes Fitz & Buddy likes Chan. I would still expect them to draft a QB in the next draft if one is available that they like.
how is it not smart? lets say fitz stays the way he is the past 2 years. basically a good qb? would you just let him walk? then what do we do? you have to sign him, and then MAYBE draft a qb in the next few years to groom...
I'm predicting a lot of people will be regretting this deal more sooner than later.

This is a no-brainer. We have no one else remotely close who can play QB besides Fitz, and although he has looked pretty human lately, he still is an above average QB in this league. The only question is years. I'd like to see it be three years, but I could totally understand four.
I'm fine with it. No doubt about it - he has his shortcomings. But he's also the unquestioned leader of this team and he's brought an offense back from the dead. Gailey's been great as coach, but Fitzpatrick has been great with execution outside of a few bad passes.
How many times have people discussed what poor shape we'd be in if Fitzpatrick went down with injury? He's valuable to our team right now. Fitz will be starting next year at the bare minimum, possibly for the next 2-3 years.
