    Laundry sucks!. Even with him knowing the system. I know Fitz is having a pretty bad year but he brings veteran experience! and the Jets seem to be getting desperate, I believe with our weapons he would mesh pretty good or at least give the other burger a chance, seriously why in the world wouldn't the front office address this problem in the off season.

    To be fair, Naf, Landry hasn't really played any this season. He threw one pass in the last game, handed off a few times and took a knee. There's no gauge on where he is as a player.

    What we know from last season is that if the rest of the offense are on form, then he can run the playbook to the standard you would expect of a back up QB on a rookie contract. The question for me is less about Landry stepping up, and more about Decastro, AB, Coates, AV, Pouncey et al. remembering how good they actually are.

    Last season for Fitzpatrick was the exception, not the rule...... most of his career has resembled this yr., which basically puts him a half step above Landry jones

    Totally pointless to bring in a QB with no experience in Haley's playbook.

    Bringing in a QB mid-season TO START is basically a non option

    I agree though. Unless there's another injury no reason to bring another QB in.

    While generally this is true it's not unheard.... Even this season look at Bradford and the Vikings.

    Fitz is a serious non issue......

    Why do fans think the Steelers need another QB right now? Fitzpatrick is hot garbage, so hell no.
