You really can’t be to surprised by how Jets’ quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick (57 fantasy points, 4 TD, 10 INT) is playing. When Fitzpatrick is doing Fitzpatrick things, you know all is right in the world. He’s just balancing out the season he had last year (285 fantasy points, 31 TD, 3,905 YDs). If you played Fitzpatrick against Kansas City when he threw 6 interceptions, I’m sure you smashed your phone and can’t play fantasy football anymore, anyway.
We’ll ignore the 4th quarter of week 17, with the playoffs on the line, which was the most Fitzpatrick thing he could have ever of done. His performance so far this season lets me know that Earth is safe from annihilation for at least the rest of this year. 2017 is still up in the year, I guess. I’m sure there will be a rouge asteroid that is destined not to destroy our planet. A select few, not so bright “scientists,” will go nuts over it and try to ruin one of my weekends. But, you know, you’ll have that.
You can’t be to surprised with how the Jets handled their QB situation. The Jets historically make terrible personal decisions, you know, something that is pretty important for NFL teams. The Jets are gonna Jets and that’s alright with me. They say when you’re looking for your other half that you should try to look for someone with common interests. So, it makes sense that the Jets and Fitzpatrick would fall for each other. However, as we know, the divorce rate is as high as Geno Smith’s gambling debt to teammates that eventually end up on the Bills roster. I don’t think we’ll see this once inseparable couple celebrate their 3 year anniversary.
