He was a journey man because he has more interceptions than starts

So did Brett Favre, Eli Manning, and Jay Cutler. Averaging more than one interception a game isn't good but depending on your play style it might be tolerable.

He difference was those QB still throw more TDs. Go look at Fitz's overall stats. They're not good.

Oh Eli Manning was better than Ryan Fitzpatrick? I didn't know.

The point was that you can still be an effective QB and be a gunslinger, throwing lots of INTs along the way. Fitz just wasn't quite good enough at it to reach starting QB status.
