– Fitz Magic is Alive
It wasn’t too long ago that there were rumblings about whether or not Ryan Fitzpatrick should remain as the starting quarterback in New York. After throwing four touchdown passes against the Miami Dolphins, those talks have disappeared.
Overall in 2015, Fitzpatrick has exceeded expectations, as he has totaled 2,476 passing yards, 20 passing touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. Having some talented players at wide receiver has certainly helped Fitzpatrick this season.
Against the Giants, Fitzpatrick draws a favorable matchup against one of the worst defenses in football. The Jets have appeared to have switched their offensive philosophy in recent weeks, as Fitzpatrick has been slinging the ball around the field.
The Jets really need this win against the Giants, and Fitzpatrick will likely have another good game.
Prediction: 300 passing yards and three passing touchdowns.
