Chloroform Rx Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 For what it's worth, the Bills have the #3 overall offense in the league while sitting towards the bottom in defense. I don't think a teams record is the best way of gauging the success of a QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrab Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Good move by the Bills, he's been a big part of them turning the team around. Not sure why some don't see that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 If only St. Louis or Cincinnati would've held onto him, they could've beefed up other areas of their team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTSuper7 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 If only St. Louis or Cincinnati would've held onto him, they could've beefed up other areas of their team Well, IMO, Chan Gailey has a lot to do with Fitzpatrick's success. I highly doubt he is anywhere near this successful if still a Bengal or a Ram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I am not so sure. I think he'd be doing well in either spot, especially Cinci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby's Hubby Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 with 27 starts, the Bills know what they are paying for. It's not like KC throwing money at Matt Cassel when they traded for him, or anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markgugs Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 (edited) Attributing a QB's "won-loss" record to the overall value of that QB is akin to using a "won-loss" record to gauge the overall value of a starting pitcher. In other words, it's a bush-league sports "analysis." Edited October 29, 2011 by markgugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
