Ryan Fitzpatrick is what he is — nothing more, nothing less.
Yet there are people out there who are critiquing him like he’s a franchise quarterback.
You have to stop.
The reality is Fitzpatrick has never been a star. He wasn’t one when he was selected in the seventh round of the 2005 draft out of Harvard and certainly hasn’t been one at any point over the last 10 years.
There’s no sugarcoating how poorly Fitzpatrick played in the Jets’ 24-17 loss to the visiting Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, but he remains a capable guy who can do an adequate job as long as the team he’s playing for has all of its ducks in a row.
