“Yeah, you know that he’s (Watt’s) going to get his hurries and his hits and all that”, Fitzpatrick said in a conference call Wednesday.

“I think that’s why so numerous guys respect him in the locker room”, wideout Brandon Marshall said a few minutes later, “because at this point everyone’s banged up”. That being said, Thursday night against the Bills was one of his worst performances of the season, and if he continues to play like that, the Jets should be looking for new quarterbacks elsewhere.
NY Jets quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick will start against the Houston Texans on Sunday, barring any setbacks with his surgically repaired left thumb. However, if you believe such a thing can happen, you’ll want to root for Texans defensive end J.J.
Watt, who recorded a sack in Monday’s 10-6 win over Cincinnati, passed Derrick Thomas (66.0) for the second-most sacks in a player’s first five seasons in National Football League history.
For all practical purposes, the Dolphins don’t have a prayer when it comes to them making the playoffs this season and especially when you look at their remaining schedule. I think areas that we need to improve are third downs and red zone. If the Jets are to make the playoffs, he needs to be in there leading the offense.
Despite having surgery, Fitzpatrick is not expecting to miss a game, especially their Week 11 matchup where they will take on his former team, the Houston Texans.
Added Decker, “We both got caught up”.
“He’ll do more (Thursday)”, Bowles said. “We’re just going to see how this thing progresses”. Richardson said he’s “optimistic” about playing, but Bowles said he’ll likely be a game-time decision…. “Every now and then you can see the ball loose and you go for it, but you better get it. More importantly, you better secure the tackle before you try to strip the ball”. And while Ryan’s sidelines antics were anything but modest, the fact that the Bills rallied and played for him as a team simply cannot be overlooked.

“It was a thought, but it wasn’t a serious thought”, Bowles said. Regardless, another loss on Sunday should about do it for them, so we’ll root on the Eagles in this early game just to be on the safe side.
