It wouldn't surprise me. It was pretty clear last year something was wrong with Fitz's mobility and as a matter of policy, Fitz and the Bills coaches don't seem to want to discuss it.

Any Dr. that would reveal details on the health of one of his patients should lose his license.

That said, I've wondered about this for a couple of weeks now. Fitz took a HUGE shot to the chest in that game and hasn't thrown the same since.

Yup, that is why I was laughing about this. Doctor/Patient confidentiality.

I have to ask - are you really laughing out loud or are you rolling on the floor laughing or are you just laughing on the inside?

You guys act like as if a Doctor would not reveal anything to family or friends. I have a friend in the NHL and he tells me alot of **** that isnt out in the media.

I believe this guy. The hit he took against Fletcher ( I believe ) was huge!

That would explain the poor decisions and terrible throws. Are you sure your friend who is a good friend with Fitz's doctor didn't say he hurt himself lifing his wallet after he signed that ridiculous contract? It is kind of ridiculous, since it is against the law for a doctor to talk to someone else about a patient no matter who he is.

Big deal, a yeast infection hardly equates to a broken rib.

Doctors probably cant even find his rib. He is four foot five and his retarded looking beard goes almost four feet long.

Is your friend a physician or a player?

My best friend's sister's boyfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with this girl who saw Fitzpatrick pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Probably explains alot. My biggest beef lately (and I'm a big fan of Fitz) is that he falls backwards when throwing...especially deep balls. Maybe it's the body's way of protecting itself from a rib injury. throwing off the back foot may alleviate some of the pain. In any event, he has seen better days.

Oh my gosh, that was a good one and so refreshingly original. I am totally shocked it took so long for someone to use it....

Is that why he's running around more and making plays by lowering his shoulder into runners at the end of a run?

Broken rib since Toronto? How about unread playbook since contract?
