    Ryan “Mr.September” Fitzmagic. Amazing he has been around al these years. I always liked the guy for making fun jokes about but he annoyed me last year when he was rooting for Tua to get in the games, did a fist pump when he relieved him then the next week cried to the media how he was hurt over Tua playing over him lol

    My goodness that is a hairy man.

    Doesnt Fitzpatrick have the record for most NFL touchdown passes from an Ivy league QB?

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

    Yes, I think he does have the record. I forgot he is a Harvard graduate. My favorite Fitzpatrick moment was when he played for the Bucs, and he walked up in that press conference looking like Conor McGregor!

    Another classic Fitzpatrick moment was when he showed up to practice in those tight shorts. He looked absolutely ridiculous.

    average to below average QB who only hung around as long as he did because someone is always getting hurt.

    I just hope he shaves, the beard is ridiculous.

    BREAKING NEWS: Ryan Fitzpatrick's beard just announced it will probably be retiring as well. It will retire as the all time leader in games worn.

    If my beard grew in like that I would never shave it off. That is one robust and luxurious beard.

    To each their own, but in my opinion that is a lot of negativity to throw towards this guy. I always thought he was kind of interesting. He plays at Harvard. Has possibly the highest Wonderlic score ever and they say he did it in record time. So he's obviously smart, but could he have a career in a league that basically eats QB's for lunch? It turns out that yes, he would be productive, and make a ton of money, going from team to team, always able to integrate himself. Basically, I saw him as a QB mercenary. A lot of fun to watch. And the NFL always needs these types of stories being injected and intertwined within the narrative to make it truly great. Plus the beard . He grows a very good beard. Every year or five I grow out my beard until my wife tells me to shave because she hates beards.

    in short, if QB's didn't get hurt he would have never played. that isn't much of a resume to me and I just never cared for the guy. it's also worthy to note what Teams he played for, with the exception of a couple seasons he was a rented QB on losing Teams, and most of them were pretty bad. if Fitzpatrick were any good, doesn't it follow that he would have been able to sign with a winning Team and stick for awhile??

    No, don't do it Fitz, don't retire!

    Noooo...there’s goes 9% of the Patriots Starting QB in 2021 poll. Seeing that LarkinCollector was the only one that voted for Ryan Fitzmagic does it still count as 9% or now that he’s retiring is it really just 5? :D

    He could of hid the football behind that beard and pulled off the most impressive QB sneak play.
