Summary

Quarterback Rank: #16
Overall: #85

Fitzpatrick had a career season but struggles with turnovers marred an otherwise fine season. He set career highs in completion percentage, yards and touchdowns. Fitzpatrick had eight multiple touchdown games and three 300-yard games. He had a great start to the year (nine touchdowns to three interceptions first three games) but really struggled with turnovers down the stretch. He had multiple interceptions six of his last nine games. He even had three games during that stretch with three or more interceptions. Fitzpatrick needs to cut down on the turnovers if he hopes to remain an NFL starter. He has 3,000-yard seasons two straight years and averaged 24 touchdowns per season during that stretch. Fitzpatrick doesn't have a great arm, but runs well for a quarterback and has a knack for making plays. He has 210-plus rushing yards three of the four seasons. Fitzpatrick doesn't throw a great deep ball and will force some throws, but does a good job of hitting his receivers in stride and knows the Bills' offense.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Fitzpatrick is a top No. 2 quarterback worth some spot starts for fantasy teams. He has a good group of young receivers to work with in an emerging offense. He might not build a whole lot on last season but should at least cut down on the turnovers. He'll get you near 4,000 yards and 25 touchdowns. Plus, you can count on him to run for 200-plus yards, which is an added bonus for fantasy owners.

Notes

Buffalo Bills general manager Buddy Nix made it clear to QB Ryan Fitzpatrick his role as starting quarterback was secure before the team signed QB Vince Young. 'Buddy Nix has been a guy that has been very fair to all his player, he's been a guy who's been trying to create a competitive atmosphere,' Fitzpatrick said Wednesday, May 16. 'Buddy caught me in the hallway one day and said, 'We're looking to create some competition for the number two spot at quarterback, we are bringing in Vince Young. We made him an offer. We'll see if he comes. But just to let you know, obviously, you are our guy and we are just trying to get better at every position.' And when people are upfront and honest with you and telling you what is going on, then it makes everything go much smoother.'

Buffalo Bills head coach Chan Gailey said he believes QB Ryan Fitzpatrick will cut down on his interceptions next season because he will get some of the team's injured wide receivers back and the team should not be facing big deficits that would require them to throw more than they want. Fitzpatrick threw 10 of his 14 second half interceptions when the team was losing by at least 10 points in a game.

'I think disappointment is probably the best word to describe it,' Fitzpatrick said Monday, Jan. 2. 'It was a very up-and-down 16 games obviously for me, but I think I learned a lot.' Head coach Chan Gailey said he has a 'great deal of confidence' in his QB.
