Fitzpatrick shocked at benching

[ForksPhin]

I just hope the comment about this being “forever” means Fitz knew Rosen wasn’t going to keep the job long term, because he saw what Rosen was offering in practice and in the QB room. Whereas now he sees what Tua has been offering in practice and in the QB room and he realizes that Tua is not going to be giving him his job back at any point.

Brother that was anything but Emotional Intelligence on display there I mean Rosen had his world turn upside down 2 -3 times in 2-3 years and he sauntered off like a pro

Rosen never had anything invested in any of the teams he played for.

Fitz is a smart dude. He shouldn't be so shocked by a decision from someone who has shown they have no idea how to manage QBs.

 

[opticblazed]

Damn . I feel so bad for him. Hope this doesnt fracture the team

 

[LargoFin]

Did I also hear BF didnt address the team about the change before it was all over the news? That right there could add bad chemistry especially to the guys really behind Fitz

Yes, because the news was leaked before anyone had a chance to discuss it with the team.

And I still can’t believe it’s not butter.

Of course that's why. He's on record saying Tua can make 100 throws he can't, he knows Tua's talent is in a completely different stratosphere than his. He know's he's done.

You're 37 years old. Get over it.

Fitz will be traded to Dallas for a 7th by next week

This is going to be a problem.

It wasn't a problem when Warner had it done for Elli. Warner said he called Fitz last night and talked to him. Fitz is a pro, he knew this was coming just caught him by surprise. I expect him to handle it in the same classy way Warner did.

I know what he’s said “on record.” But let’s face it, sometimes guys talk BS to the media. I want this to be the truth.

 

[Pitbull13]

I'm shocked at the timing

There was apparently a leak; word got out before Flores wanted it to. He's said he'll apologize to the team.

It happens.

 

[NBP81]

Clearly this wasnt something planned like most of us thought... Once that theory is out the window, Im not sure how anyone could expect him to feel differently.

 

[Shula Fan]

Fitz has carried himself very well.
