NEW YORK -- Fitz is still in for the New York Jets.Ryan Fitzpatrick will remain the teams starting quarterback for its game next Monday night against the Indianapolis Colts. Coach Todd Bowles made the announcement a day after the Jets lost 22-17 to the New England Patriots and fell to 3-8.Hes our starter, Bowles said during a conference call. Its no different than anybody else on both sides of the ball right now.Fitzpatrick was mostly solid against New England, going 22 of 32 for 269 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions, but fumbled on New Yorks final drive when he was hit by Chris Long while attempting to throw. The Patriots recovered and ran out the clock.Bowles was noncommittal to Fitzpatrick after the game, but he said Monday that he wanted to speak only about the loss. He added that he knew all along that Fitzpatrick would be back under center this week.There was no debate, Bowles said.With the Jets all but eliminated from playoff contention, some fans and media are calling for the Jets to play Bryce Petty and, perhaps, eventually Christian Hackenberg to evaluate the young quarterbacks.We get looks at them every day, Bowles said. As a coach, you weigh trying to win ballgames first, and theres a time and place that those guys will get a chance to play. It just wont be next week.Petty filled in for Fitzpatrick two weeks ago against Los Angeles when the veteran was sidelined with a sprained knee. The fourth-round pick out of Baylor last year went 19 of 32 for 163 yards with a touchdown and an interception in the 9-6 loss.Hackenberg was a second-rounder this year out of Penn State, but from the beginning, this season has always been generally considered a redshirt type of situation as he develops and learns the system. While Hackenberg is likely to remain on the sideline, there remains intrigue over what Petty could do over a series of games -- and not just in practices.Theres a curiosity to all the young guys that are backing up right now, Bowles acknowledged. But that doesnt mean Im going to start them all right now. ... There are a lot of guys backing up right now that probably want to be in games that are not ready to play yet. Ill go from there.I have a timetable in my head for certain guys that I want to see at different positions. When that time comes, Ill make those decisions.For Bowles, the goal remains to win games now -- despite the growing public sentiment that thats the least important thing as the season continues to spiral.Were all fighters, Bowles said. Were all trying to win every game, whether were trying to get to 8-8 or whether were trying to be 16-0. Were trying to win. Its not about Bryce. Its not about Fitz. Its about our team trying to win ballgames.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Stitched Rays Jerseys .
