If you don't root for that crazy gunslingery bastard, you're doing football wrong.
And it's not like he even has a cannon - he just doesn't have a conscious to speak of. Dude's a blast.

Fitzpatrick is just good enough........to keep you from drafting #1 overall
He’s too streaky to ever lead a team to the playoffs He always follows up a 4 TD game with a 4 INT game.

Then he took the job and the Jets went 10-6. Buffalo was a similar situation; they were profoundly mediocre in 2008 and had Trent Edwards at quarterback (after Losman busted out). They signed Fitzgerald and were...still profoundly mediocre. It wasn't as though Perry Fewell is an offensive mastermind there. And that's the BEST situation he ever found himself in. He never had a truly good spot to shine and did well in a number of situations where nobody expected him to. Some slightly better franchise luck and he could've been something more than the journeyman he turned into.

From what I remember he had the opportunity to take the Jets to the playoffs, then blew it in the final game of the regular season. He has one of those 3-4 int games

But at this point he should be considered the premier backup QB in the league... I bet Miami keeps him around another year to be the bridge for whoever they draft this year |

Fitzpatrick seems like a fun person that is probably a hoot of a teammate. That time he came out in a teammates bling and shades was awesome.
As far as the on the field player, from a production stand point he seems like the guy that is going to keep your team at or just above .500. The worst part is he is not bad enough to get a team into the top 5 to draft his replacement without some team help nor is he good enough to get his team to the SB.

In the time it’s taken me to read this thread, Derrick Johnson has picked him off three more times.

Game 1 - Came off the bench for an injured quarterback while trailing 24-3. Became the fifth player to throw for 300 yards in his NFL debut (and three of those four won Super Bowls or NFL championships). Led the team to a 33-27 overtime victory by throwing a 56-yard touchdown pass. Game 2 - Lost, threw for only 163 yards. Game 3 - Threw 5 interceptions. Game 4 - Benched at halftime.
