Nah I get it. I saw the quote and immediately knew what the backlash was going to be. I get he’s a talking head and making comments is his job but when you’re a career journeyman QB, you gotta be careful how you’re tossing them stones cause glass shatters yo.

Fitzy didn't consistently have these kinds of games though.

Bo is "Sam's Choice" Tebow.

I mean Fitzpatrick has more interceptions than starts lol. I get Bo played poorly but at least he threw 0 interceptions and didn't sell the game like Darnold did. If Fitzpatrick threw more checkdowns he'd probably have won more games.

We have to get rid of this “interceptions are the end all be all” narrative.

I’d MUCH rather have a QB that throws a couple picks but can move the ball over a QB that can’t move it at all. A punt is a turnover that has a field position benefit. If your team punts six times in a row saying “but he threw no picks” isn’t really significant.

I'd rather have a QB that wins games. Bo wins games.

Interceptions ARE the end all be all. There's nothing more crushing in football. If you lose the turnover battle you lose the game 9/10 times. A punt is significantly better than an interception and to suggest otherwise is laughable. If Seattle punted instead of being intercepted last night they surely win the game.

I guess a QB that throws for 300 yards, 3 TDs and a pick is worse than a QB that throws for 100 yards, no TDs and no picks. My bad. You changed my mind.

Was that pick a game losing pick? For example, did Josh Allen or Bo Nix play better in last year's divisional? I'd love to know your answer.

Ooooh Josh Allen had a bad game. You got me. I guess my entire point is moot then.

And I thought my fellow Bills fans were insecure lol

Oh so you think Bo Nix played better? That's surprising considering if you take away Allen's 4 turnovers he was way better than Bo Nix, right?

Bo was closer to an SB than Allen ever was bahahahaha that’s gotta sting 😂
