The Ryan Fitzpatrick Curse

Case file: Cincinnati, 2008. Quarterback Carson Palmer, who had started 51 consecutive games, mysteriously came down with sore elbow. A little strange, but nothing that set off alarms. Not yet, anyway.

2009: this time the scene was Buffalo. Starting quarterback Trent Edwards got a bump on the head.

There was Tennessee in 2013. Two men came out of nowhere to nearly break the leg of Jake Locker. A few weeks later, Locker's luck got worse when he was the victim of a foot injury.

Next: 2014 in Houston. Quarterback Ryan Mallett tore his shoulder.

New York City, 2015. Jets quarterback Geno Smith was punched in the face, suffering a broken jaw.

2017, Jamais Winston injures his Shoulder, misses 4 Games

In each of those instances when a quarterback was injured, what was the common theme? Fitzpatrick was the backup quarterback.

Most of the games we had last year were very close as well. As long as we have Russell Wilson, we are capable of winning every game.

Not just that. He needs help at WR and RB. There needs to be some other offensive threat on the team other than him.

But MOST of all he needs some sort of an offensive line. Been going downhill ever since they traded for Graham.

If I were him, I'd lay down an ultimatum-protect me or trade me. He's gonna get seriously hurt one day.

I think there was a UFO sighting over the field too when all of these things happened.
