Throwing behind a player on a crossing route over the middle. Awesome. After Larry catches the pass off his butt he can then turn around and get plastered by a safety in the zone.

Damn you Warner... why did you have to retire a year earlier?

 

[LarryStalling]

Forgetting Fitzgerald rule number 1 will get Da benched if he is not careful.

Have you seen our OL play? Warner was no fool.

Have you seen our OL play? Warner was no fool.

Plus the defensive exodus was written on the wall and we're 38th in spending this year.Just imagine what and who we'd have if Warner played for his 11 Mill.While Brady&Manning are making 19 Mill. a season.

Well, we know who made whom look good. IMO without Kurt, Fitz is just a slightly above average receiver (just as he was before Kurt got here).

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Have you seen who his qb is? Jerry Rice would have a hard time catching passes out there.

You're kidding me. Fitz is still great. We just have an absolutely horrible quarterback.

Lol, such blasphemy.

Huh??? [Scratching my head on this nugget]...

Fitz tore it up in the Pro Bowl after the Super Bowl - and it didn't matter who was throwing him the ball. Eli for one TD, Drew for another...

No, no, no.

DA is just flat out TERRIBLE...he can't place a football to save his life. His completions (half his throws) are often due to a receiver making an adjustment, or turning them around so they have to about face to move upfield and are by then tackled.

A half decent QB would dig throwing to Fitz, but DA simply can't locate a ball to his receivers. It is maddening.

The fact that I paused the game to show my wife when he FINALLY put the ball in front of a RB (Howling) on a short pass says a lot. It's a freaking everyday standard play, but DA has a hard time doing it. EVERY short RB pass prior to that one was behind the RB, so they had to stop, turn around and usually lean down to catch it, then turn and get whacked by a defender. I had been so upset about this problem (saw it in the preseason too) that when he finally put the ball in front of howling and he had to run and catch it (and gained 12 too) it was a "highlight play" for me.

And he's worse with crossing routes and practically everything else. He can throw a really nice seam route though.

Don't confuse DA's utter incompetence with Fitz' talent, please.

That was his rookie season. the next year, he led the NFL in receptions, and Kurt started only 10 of those games. A year in which Kurt threw for 11 TDs and 9 INTs and no one thought he was more than a stop gap.

 

[conraddobler]

Fitz can be a monster, even Warner could not get him the ball properly all the time.

A real QB, a strong armed QB would torment the NFL by raining TD's down on it through Fitz.

The only weakness Fitz has is that he isn't real fast, but he almost always is open simply because of his size.

It's a real shame to waste him with the likes of DA throwing the ball.

I have seen Fitz play since he was a freshmen in High School.. He is a great receiver.. As a freshman he was better then all the seniors on the field and he still is better then most guys on the field today.. Saying Warner made him is crazy talk

Fitz was a pro bowler when it was McCown and a Warner pre renaissance.

Consensus: DeAnna is wrong.

To be fair to DeAnna, you could say that about pretty much every football player who makes it to the NFL. Mike Vick was better than every player that he faced off against, and is probably one of the 10 or 15 most talented guys in the NFL, he just never wanted to work for it. We had a DE (?) who was a varsity starter in his Alabama(?) high school when he was like 12. I can't for the life of me remember his name, although I know Duck or Russ will.

Fitz is a great player, and DeAnna is wrong. But I think that Lee Evans is a great player in Buffalo and thinking of how his career has gone for the last four or five years makes me sad, too.

I think that Fitz is going to regret getting #7 fired by not standing up for him, but he has to live with that choice.

 

[TheHopToad]

Damn you Warner... why did you have to retire a year earlier?

This is why...

 

[DeAnna]

ok, ok, ok ... maybe I was a wee bit harsh in my assessment

But you can't convince me that without Kurt he will continue to be an elite receiver.

and I get the last word, ha!

With DA, we won't have an elite receiver unless they practice catching with their but cheeks in practice so you win!

 

[DemsMyBoys]

I've been listening to the Talking Heads pretty closely on this subject. (I'd been wondering if they were going to take DeAnna's position.) Not one person has said Fitz is (will be) worse without Warner. If anything, I'm hearing a lot more "Fitz is the best in the game right now" from them.

And, independently, I'm absolutely agreeing with them.

I think you are referencing Dennis Johnson, but I believe it was Kentucky, not Alabama.

See Brett Farve.

It doesn't last forever. You just can't outrun old, and with a really bad hip it is even harder.

Warner's window closed when Boldin chose to jump up and down to complain instead of running after J.Harrison, and when half the Cardinals secondary decided not to push Santanio Holmes in the back.

That was the window, and it slammed shut.

Welcome to the present, and we are re-building, and watching the growing pains.

Come to grips with it.

That's right. Man, he had good character.
