I know he did. My point was he started year 2 even after Alex Smith had a good season the year before. I was pointing out that regardless what Fitz does this season that Tua should be the starter next year.you
You are using mahomes as an example and yet he sat for a year.
Do people want good QB play or do they only care about which QB gives it to them?
He's 5th in QBR. He's been streaky in his career, but if he continues this he should absolutely be starting 2021 as well and that's coming from someone who championed taking Tua ALL last season.
Thing is he's only top 5 in QBR, which espn wont say what they use to come to that number... For example, Russell Wilson with his 19 TDs 3 INTs maintaining a 8.9 YPA is somehow behind Fitzpatrick in QBR who's boasting an impressive 7/5 TD/INT with 7.9 YPA... Seems legit...I love Fitz and I think he's having a solid year so far but it's still too early for stats to have any significant meaning. Fitz is also tied for 20th in touchdowns and only three QBs have thrown more interceptions. So is he 5th best QB so far? Or in the bottom third? Hypothetically speaking if Fitz finished the year as a top 5 QB across the board (TDs, yards, rating, etc.), I'd absolutely want him back and keep Tua on the bench until Fitz declines. But I think we all know that's not going to happen.
We’re trying to accomplish something this year, Fitz earned the right to take the team as far as he can this year and we have our future franchise qb learning from a smart player..I already know that. That's why I want Tua to start ASAP!

You think Fitzpatrick would retire as a player and then take on a coaching position here? No way he stays on as a coach, putting in just as many hours as he would as a player. When he retires, he'll be at home raising his kids. As well, he should. Tua is a sponge learning from Ryan right now. He'll be more than up to speed come 2021.They just need to get him on the coaching staff when his playing days are over.
Yeah, his posts never really make much senseNow you are comparing Fitzpatrick to fricken Aaron Rodgers? LOL That's a good one. Not only that, where was Jordan Love drafted? Oh that's right, somewhere in the mid 20's. He wasn't a top 5 pick like Tua was. Jordan Love was never drafted to be a starter right away and that's why most people hated that pick because they drafted someone who won't help them for a few years at least.
Right but my argument was for the people who think Fitz should start next year as well. Tua needs to be the starter in 2021 at the latest.We’re trying to accomplish something this year, Fitz earned the right to take the team as far as he can this year and we have our future franchise qb learning from a smart player..
there is no negative here, and we might make a run at the playoffs this year..I’m gonna enjoy that with the youngest roster in the league That has oodles of upcoming assets.
I got you..Right but my argument was for the people who think Fitz should start next year as well. Tua needs to be the starter in 2021 at the latest.
