Why was this even a question ?
agreed..

fitzpatrick played with a thumb that needed surgery with a healthy smith in the wings..

then fitzpatrick had surgery on said thumb & doesn't miss a start with a healthy smith in the wings..

then fitzpatrick appears to get concussed yesterday & stays in the game with a healthy smith in the wings..

Not a question, but starting a fact that Bowles is standing by Fitz. Stupid Media stirring up crap for a story & forced Bowles to come out & shut down the Medias lip flapping.

Stick with Fitz this year.... Sign him to a 2 year deal.... Let him and Petty battle next summer for the starting spot

This is the win-win scenario. If Petty still isn't ready by opening day next year, they still have a dependable middle of the road vet.

If petty is ready he will have an extra QB coach in his hip pocket, who unlike most vets QB's will be happy to guide him.

Exactly...I think Petty will be ready next year..but if not I am ok with Fitz..

Absolutely

And draft another prospect in 16, bring in an insurance vet in FA and cut Geno in January

QB issues resolved

Or we could follow Gary Moron.Myers headline "plan" of total desperation on the back page of his bankrupt rag today and draft a first round QB and give NO multiple draft picks and get 35 year old washed up Drew Brees


Seriously Myers is a total dumbass

Think the only thing that might change lou's plan is if they trade for a Q like Glennon. I'm sure he'll be on the market next year at a reasonable price. Winston looks like the real deal

This must mean Petty must not be 100% ready or at least 75% ready to take over the job. If the Jets are not putting him in there, they're idiots if they know he is ready to play. They're not making the playoffs this year with Fitz or Geno at this point anyway, so if Petty is ready to play and their not going to play him at this point their idiots.

Aaron Rodgers wasnt ready to play in year one

Neither was Brady

Some QBs unfortunately arent ready in year 3 or 13 or 30 or ever

“I am extremely invested in Bryce’s career,’’ Fitzpatrick said.

“With [Fitzpatrick] watching film with me and us getting together on Tuesdays and game-planning together, I can tell you that I would feel confident playing right now,’’ Petty said. “There are so many guys that are not like that — guys who maybe had to learn on their own so they just feel like everyone should learn it on their own, too.

“Fitz isn’t like that. It’s a pay-it-forward kind of deal. Hopefully, if I have the career that he’s had I can do that for somebody else.’’

this is why we should not see geno again I am sure fitzpatrick invites all the QB's where is smith?

"But for all of the curiosity that exists about how good the kid might be, his presence in a game represents a worst-case scenario, because it would mean either starter Ryan Fitzpatrick is iinjured"

The only plan that makes sense for the Jets until next TC when Ryan, Bryce, a FA insurance vet and a 2016 project draftee compete for the starting QB job

That is a lose-win situation. Even contemplating starting Fitzpatrick again is ludicrous beyond belief. You CANNOT win with this fucking loser JAG. Bowles is a coward for continuing to play him. Bowles also sounds drunk on that audio. Seriously. Or just woke up.

LOL

Really angry at Bowles, and the whole world, for saving your son from the embarrassment of actually going on the field again.

Don't worry Mrs smith, your little boy will be home for good soon

Has absolutely nothing to do with Geno, They could cut Geno tomorrow and I would not care much, though I do think he should get a last chance,

What pissed me off is continuing to trot a QB out there who has proven over TEN years that he:

1. Cannot be a winning team (once since 2011)

2. Cannot lead a comeback (9 total in 10 tears)

3. Has never won more than 6 games and right now looks like that could continue

4. Cannot stretch the field and move the safety out of the box

5. Despite his "harvard" education does not make good decisions on the field

6. Locks on to receivers

7. Threw 3 interceptions in the last 2 weeks in situations at the end of gameswhere he needed to step up

8. Has shown no ability to adjust plays in key situations, usually going for the quickest option he can find

But the supporters will say "teammates love him!", "Decker has a Fitzmagic shirt" and the best one:

"He is a leader!", not even sure what that one means anyway other than being an impressive soundbite:

"Ryan Fitzpatrick, a HARVARD graduate, is a natural leader that has the unflagging support of all his teammates. In fact, they are so behind him that they do not even care that other teams just like in years past have completely figured out how to stop him. No, "Fitzgerald is our QB" Bowles says, pointing out that none of the slide is on Fitz, because "he puts it all on the line" and his "teammates are 100& behind him because he is a "leader". So expect to the Jets to continue to slide and miss the playoffs because there really is no one better to lead them there in truth than a weak armed dump off artist that has never won more than 6 games in his career. No, there is just no better choice for mediocrity than Ryan Fitzpatrick, Harvard man, leader"

& what would you have bowles do?? put in smith to save the season??

bowles, the team & an overwhelming majority of the fan base want fitzpatrick starting & nothing to do with smith & that makes them/fitzpatrick supporters idiots??

fitzpatrick is the team's best option this season to try & make the playoffs..

do i need to rattle off a laundry list of reasons why smith should never take another meaningful snap for the jets again??

but hey, who knows, maybe most everyone has this wrong & you have it figured out..
