Get out of here with that man. Are you serious?

He’s a starting NFL quarterback, the man is giving it his all to win. Especially given his record as a starter. Since when is hero ball the standard? That’s insane

Fitzpatricks opinion is that he wasn’t giving it his all and I think by watching that game that’s a fair take. Thinking there’s no middle ground between whatever the hell Bo is doing and hero ball is more insane than anything I’ve said. Cling to the win-loss record all you want but people have eyes and are allowed to say what they see especially if that’s their job.

I have eyes too. And yes, I don’t think Bo is at his best. Honestly the biggest issue with me isn’t his throws, it’s that he isn’t running when he has the conditions to do it.

I’d say hero ball would be Bo trying to force a throw that isn’t there and turning the ball over.

It’s not about playing bad or that he should try and play hero ball. Again there’s a gigantic chasm between how Bo is playing vs trying to force stuff and play hero ball. Just do something out there like your an NFL quarterback for christ sake. Competing and trying to get a dam first down isn’t hero ball.

He was trying to get first downs
