Re: not good press on Fitz going into bills game
i think you are right justa. he struggles with long ball accuracy. if you can make him throw that 10 yard sideline toss, that's where his lack of arm strength and his long windup get him in trouble. make him throw that pass under pressure and he will throw the INT.
i didn't know he was under performing schaub throgh3 games. schaub was terrible last year through3 games.

back up running backs come and have great days against the bills.
former players have big days against us.
former washed up players on their final season with a new team (think emmitt Smith, even thurman with the dolphins) have big days.
Fitz fits into two of those categories. it just makes me nervous. especially with bad press and week 3 talk about transitioning to a different guy.

Of course.
$7 million, I believe it is. Correct me if I'm wrong. Dumbest thing in the world to sign Fitz to that contract, let alone let that money bleed into this year. This is not an opinion I express only in hindsight.

Originally posted by justasportsfan View PostMarrones mistake was that they didn't expect Rivers to go deep as often as he did. Bills got burned.
The game plan should be the same for Fitz. Defend the short-mid field and force Fitz to go deep but expect it this time.

Re: not good press on Fitz going into bills game
Passing talent aside, Fitz is quick on the uptake -a skill honed during his time in BUF and the offense they used - and he took off down field to good effect. In another thread, a poster mentioned BUF's tendencies to play man pass D, and noted that Fitz may well take off what with pass defenders pursuing receivers and their backs to the LOS.Fiat justitia ruat caelum. Noli timere. Laus Deo.
