Week 4 is about the little brother stuck on the JV team, trying to make a name for himself.Little bros? JV?Well, how else to describe the SEC East, the ACC Coastal, the Big Ten West and the Pac-12 South? Or Tennessee in its rivalry with Florida? Or UCLA and its futile California weekenders with Stanford?Well start with Tennessee quarterback?Joshua Dobbs?and what we should expect from his matchup with Floridas ferocious defense. Well provide one way to stop UCLA QB?Josh Rosen. Then well ask hard questions about Wisconsin and Clemson QB?Deshaun Watson. The personnel matchup?of?the?week comes from the Arkansas-Texas A&M clash in the SEC West.

Colin Wilson had two goals and an assist, and Mike Fisher scored a goal and helped set up two others in the Predators 6-4 victory over the Red Wings on Monday night. FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- With his focus on the present, not the future, coach Todd Bowles announced Monday that the embattled Ryan Fitzpatrick will remain the?New York Jets starting quarterback.After sitting on his decision for seven days, through the bye week, Bowles opted for Fitzpatrick over fan favorite Bryce Petty even though the team is out of playoff contention at 3-7.Hes healthy, hes been our starter, Bowles said of Fitzpatrick. I dont see anything that could change that right now.Fitzpatrick sat out the last game (Nov. 13) with an MCL sprain, but hes healthy enough to start Sunday against the New England Patriots, according to Bowles.The Jets fan base has been clamoring for Petty to start. Fitzpatrick, a free agent after the season, is a lame duck. But Bowles isnt ready to give up on the season to evaluate players for 2017.I dont think anything of that argument, he said, referring to those who want him to look toward the future. We take it week by week. Well try to get four [wins]. If we get four, well try to get five and well go from there.I dont give away jobs, Bowles added. You have to take the job.Fitzpatrick, who signed a one-year, $12 million contract in July, is having a terrible year. He has only eight touchdown passes and 13 interceptions, tied for the league lead. He has the lowest passer rating among starters, 67.6. He has been benched once, but he regained the job when Geno Smith tore his ACL.Im excited to get out there and play versus New England and try to rally the guys, Fitzpatrick said. This is something I really enjoy doing, and I enjoy doing it with the guys in this locker room.Petty blew a chance to wrest tthe job from Fitzpatrick, falling to the Los Angeles Rams?9-6 in his first NFL start.dddddddddddd. He received lukewarm reviews from Bowles after completing 19 of 32 passes for 163 yards and one touchdown -- and the touchdown came on a hook-and-ladder play. He threw a late interception that killed the Jets comeback bid.Bowles said he always planned to go back to Fitzpatrick.Obviously, you throw 10 touchdowns, you have to take a look at it, Bowles said of Pettys chances. Barring anything outstanding, Fitz wouldve been the starter.Petty refused to say he was disappointed, adding, You know what? My feelings are irrelevant. Im not going to focus on me because that takes away from the team.Nothing has changed for me, he said. Thats Coachs decision. Im going to respect that. He knows whats best for the team.Just last week, general manager Mike Maccagnan called it a complicated decision, saying its a delicate balance between trying to win now and evaluating for the future. He consulted with Bowles, but the coach had the final say.Petty and rookie Christian Hackenberg, a second-round pick, are the only two quarterbacks under contract for 2017. Its the biggest issue surrounding the future of the franchise.Bowles said hes in no rush to get either player on the field.I actually know quite a bit about both of them, he said. Its not paramount for them to play right now.Right now, Fitz gives us the best option. You dont play a person just to see what they have. Pettys time will come. Well have to be patient with that.
