  • You could both drop C2K and Fitz and see how long it takes someone (Berz) to pick them up ?

      I'm asking a honest question. What do people see in Fitz? I drafted him this year because I had him ranked there on my board. Right now he's lost his starting spot till the byes for Desean. I always looked forward to playing whomever had Fitz every week because they would invariably start him and he's suck and I'd win.

      I held off on the ass-stapling benchings because of the win.

      Please, tell me why people like him?

      • 1) Last year he help make Kevin Kolb not look horrible.
        2) With even a mediocre quarterback, he is one of the most talented receivers in the league.
        3) He is a great player on a REALLY bad team (which should help him in targets, but doesn't help him in coverage).

        Haven't you been accused of looking at individual players before without considering the team as a whole? I think this may be another example.

        • Haven't you been accused of looking at individual players before without considering the team as a whole?
          Not me. Usually I get accused for homerism. IE, picking too many chargers. This year I didn't pick ENOUGH Chargers.

          IDP had him rated in the top ten and either the number 1 or 2 WR. I had him ranked around 30. His play so far ranks him as undraftable (out of the top 500).

          And Jag of all people praised me drafting him.

          I don't like Fitz. I hate him, he's always overrated and he's on my 'let someone else deal with his bull****'. This year he fell to me and I was like, huh? Usually some other sap gets him.

          3) He is a great player on a REALLY bad team (which should help him in targets, but doesn't help him in coverage).
          He's not getting any targets at all.

          Compare him with Amendola who has been a stud? Makes no sense to me why people praise Fitz. He's not just a great receiver on a bad team, he's just a mediocre receiver at best.

          So where's the talent?

          3) He is a great player on a REALLY bad team (which should help him in targets, but doesn't help him in coverage).
          Arizona is 8-8. I figured they'd turn the corner this year and Fitz would be a beneficiary. I was right - they have turned a corner - but Fitz is still doing nothing. What gives?

          Anybody here can give me insight as to why? I really don't get the hype.

          • Crap, I lose by less than 1/2 point to Matt to a IDP guy who was listed as Questionable going into Monday night? I'd rather lose by 40.

            • Should've started Rivers over Ryan this week... they play each other on Sunday. Rivers or Ryan?

              • Would it be funnier to start Romo or RG3 against Sloww? Cowpats QB vs Baylor kid that Sloww wanted to take...

                Alternatively, one could argue that beating him with either would be funny, so will Romo score more against the Bucs or RG3 against the Bengals?

                  On further review, I win by 1.05. Not sure how that happened since I didn't seem to get extra points, but I will take it.

                      • Look at QB performance vs. CIN and vs. PHI this season. Two guys have played both. That should tell you something about whether you should start a QB vs. CIN or not.

                          It looks bad, but it's been two weeks. This might end up being an off year for Fitz, but he's making it to 1100 yards, one way or another.

                            So will antonio brown. That's not a good thing for the #2 WR in the draft.
