Ryan Fitzpatrick: Week 3 Player of the Week for the Buffalo Bills

Fitzpatrick, Ryan 3

Rick Osentoski-US PRESSWIRE

In week three, Buffalo Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick looked superb today despite only having 208 yards passing. His mechanics looked mostly better than previous weeks where this week he actually lead receivers on more passes than his usual of throwing behind the receiver.

One thing I really loved about what Ryan did today was that he passed the ball to seven different receivers including fullback Corey McIntyre.

Besides the passing yards, he did throw touchdowns to three different receivers; Stevie Johnson, rookie T.J. Graham, and emerging star running back C.J. Spiller. I was elated to see T.J. score his first NFL touchdown today in person here in Cleveland despite the weather and even though it was only for nine yards for the track star. C.J. Spiller’s touchdown was a very nice series of moves on a swing pass from 32 yards out. Finally Stevie Johnson’s pass was much more direct then the other two from nine yards out.

I’m excited to see if Ryan can find T.J. Graham in space because his speed burst I have seen is tremendous, or even use him on a Jetsweep run from time to time and possibly catch a defense off guard.

Also Fitzpatrick didn’t get sacked once again, and that’s three consecutive games where the offensive line has kept his blue jersey immaculate. Also with this sheer dominance of the offensive line, Ryan Fitzpatrick has the ability to take off and run if need be when going through the air isn’t feesable.

It also seems since week one, Ryan has relaxed, since he hasn’t forced any stupid passes that could be and have lead to interceptions and subsequently has helped other teams  score cheap points versus us, just like the New York Jets. His turnovers in that game was the difference in the 48-28 route in week one.
