no more geno debates thank goodness
LOL

I was a Geno guy, and definitely not a Fitz guy, but you can't be stubborn and close-minded, Fitz has done a real solid job, more than enough to win with this defense, so it would be nuts to disturb what we have going here. I'm glad Bowles came out and squashed any idea of a QB controversy and just said its Fitz's job now, he deserves that show of support.

Well deserved too.

If Fitz blows up then Geno will deserve a shot, but ideally Petty will learn more about being an NFL QB from Fitz than Geno.

I have high hopes that Petty will become a good QB for us if given the correct grounding!

This is what true coaching and management is about and the way it should be. Bowles is making the right decision and great he is nipping it in the bud and eliminating even the thought in everyone's mind, including Fitz and Geno of what happens when Geno is healthy. BESIDES, GENO DOESN'T DESERVE THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT AND DID NOTHING TO DESERVE IT THE PAST TWO YEAR HE PLAYED. OR OVER THIS OFF-SEASON OR TRAINING CAMP!

I was also a huge Geno supporter and Fitz hater but Fitz is doing his job very well and deserves to remain starter. I'm so disgusted with Geno I don't even want him on this team anymore. I'm hoping if Fitz gets hurt or starts to flop and hopefully neither will happen, Petty will be ready to come in and give us average play. Learn and remain the starter for the next 15 years or so. Geno is a distant memory and I'm guessing will be gone come next year.

This is a non story. If Bowles would have gone with Smith upon his return then thay would have been dumb

This is not a story if you paid attention. Bowles made this clear when Geno got hurt

This is true, I remember it well, Bowles said if the team is winning and playing well, Fitz remains the starter. He made it clear from day one that this was now Fitz's job to win or lose, and he's done more than enough to keep it.

For now. If Fitz starts playing poorly he will have a short hook. But the right thing to say at this point.

I think Fitz has some slack. Bowles, like Parcells, doesn't prescribe to QB juggling. He wants a clear cut starter.

I am in same boat and agree 100% with everything you said here. It's all about the team right now and Fitz is doing a good job and deserves to be the starter, no question.

it's fitzpatrick's team

it's fitzpatrick's team

I favored Geno as well. But I favor winning, most of all. So im all in with Fitz.

I also think Geno would improve under this regime

When Fitz goes through a little rough spot and the fans/media are calling for Geno, that will be a true test for Bowles. Let's see how he does.

It will get tough at some point. It'll be windy at the meadowlands, rainy and snowy.

I thought the same thing but he did play in Buffalo and had pretty decent success there. Maybe the early/late season splits might give us the answer.

If you want to see how well Smith does in foul weather, watch of tape of him in the Pinstripe Bowl

I agree. My post was more about that Fitz will probably hit a rough patch this year and people will be calling for Geno to start. That will be a challenge for Bowles.

Think the only thing that gets Smith out there again is a horrific 4 game stretch by Fitz, Which I don't see happening, a game here of there maybe, but doubt it will be a run long enough to get him benched. Or an injury, which is possible.

Think at this point Bowles is looking for stability. That is why the job was given to Smith in the first place. If nothing else Smith has shown himself not to be a stable, accountable. person.

Don't see many people calling out for Smith. Maybe Petty

Let's just hope that there is no need for calls for Geno or Petty, as that would mean that Fitz is performing well. I really don't want Petty playing yet, he needs the 'clipboard' time and will be better for it in the long run.

I like Petty, but also agree with Gailey, "I like where he's going, he's just not there yet"
