I know i'm going to come across as a Fitz homer, which i'm not, but we talk about he sucks at accuracy, how much does 5% make in the success of a QB? I would say alot. But what about 1-2% difference in completion rates?
He's comparable to Eli Manning and Matthew Stafford career completion wise. He's actually above both if you just take Fitz's time in Buffalo.
Fitz Career in Buffalo only - 59.9% (in 2011 - 62%)
So against what has been said on this board, he's improved completion % wise.
