I think the book on Fitz is pretty agreed upon .. can he limit his YOLO moments to calculated risks. Will he take the gimmie 5 yard route on 1st and 10 or hold off hoping a longer play will develop.

If we get into 3rd and long/predictable bc we went 2nd and 10 when it could have been 2nd down and 5 .. that pattern may be an issue.

If we get in trouble will he go YOLO and just flick a ball out to a guy he only sees a flash of while hes scrambling? in PS game 2, he was in trouble and tried to get teh ball to a guy in the middle who was just standing flat footed and Fitz basically threw it to a defender who dropped it.

We dont need him trying to make every play a positive play. If its not there and its not 3rd down .. dont force it to a guy you only saw a flash of when youre on the run. Kill the play and move one. Worst case scenario is we hand it off to our pro bowl punter and our top5 D.

That forced throw was the exact thing we dont want to see but hes a vet and its just in his DNA.

If fitz consistently passes on the guaranteed short yards looking for longer developing routes that may or may not be won, I dont think he fits Turners playbook.

if Fitz forces balls in our own end, he doesnt compliment our punter and D.
