davspo Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Let the best man win. Whoever performs the best gets the job.
BUNCH OF MULARKEY Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Two works for me. That means we gotta keep brad smith in case things go...ught oh !! Lol
NDBUFFCUSEFAN Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 This reminds me of the Jasper is going to be the best DT/OG OF ALL TIME hype.
Prickly Pete Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Good grief why does everyone think the world will come to an end if we cut corn kolb. Oh no two rookies going in.. Who cares.? Why take reps and an extra talented wide receiver away from them(who the patriots will sign) , for what.. Kevin kolb? I see why they signed him ,but with what the rookies have shown, its what ya call a good problem to have. I agree. This team isn't expected to make the playoffs, and it ain't happening if Kolb plays anyway.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 I know.... I'm certainly not implying that he will be Peyton Manning, just that way he was maneuvering and coordinating the offense in that hurry up reminded me of watching him I was just teasing but we could only hope he turns into Peyton ,
BillsWatch Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Jeff Tuel is more like to become Bills' version of Kurt Warner than Manning but I think he did a great job with what he was given.
Pilsner Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Not sold on Tuel Time. Saw him play college ball for years. When he wasn't choking, he was stinking. He performed surprisingly well against 2nd/3rd string teams, and it's awesome he can get onto the field without hurting himself. But unless EJIII is the next coming of Russell Wilson, I'm not looking to Tuel Time for any big wins this year. I hope I'm wrong. I agree with you blzrul in that I hope you are wrong as well. Tuel seemed poised and had command of his situation. On average in this game he played against higher caliber competition than he did in college. It is not out of the question that new coaching which might understand his strengths played a possible part in his progression. Players who have been average in college for whatever reason have been known to progress to a new found level with the right coaching. Don't get down on your Tuel so soon. A proper Tuel in the hands of a skilled craftsman can provide surprising results. It is yet to be known what quality the coaches are but so far so good.

It'll be interesting to see how they handle the reps against the Vikings this week. Kolb's probably wishing he signed with the Jets right about now. He could take that job.
RuntheDamnBall Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 Jeff Tuel is more like to become Bills' version of Kurt Warner than Manning but I think he did a great job with what he was given. Oh yes, he'll only become one of the better QBs of all time, not one of the greatest and most gifted.
SPILLERmadeUmiss Posted August 14, 2013 Author Posted August 14, 2013 Oh yes, he'll only become one of the better QBs of all time, not one of the greatest and most gifted. The excitement might be over the top, but the kid has talent and he played well. We've waited a long tme for a single QB capable of playing at a high level and now we MAY have two. Gotta smile.
Buftex Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 Just to give you an idea of how crazy Tuel-mania (or this Tuelishness?) has become: About 3 weeks ago, I purchased an autographed Jeff Tuel Upper Deck rookie card....for a whopping 4.99 + 2.50 for shipping...total: $7.49 I was the only bidder. Today, on EBAY, the same card (or ones just like it) have bids going up to $43.00 (22 bids) and rising! Another for $41.00 (7 bids) Both have 3 or 4 days left to bid...crazy! So, if this is a joke, not everyone, it appears, is in on it!

SPILLERmadeUmiss Posted August 15, 2013 Author Posted August 15, 2013 Some solid stuff here... http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-2/Joe-Cool-Tuel-looks-to-add-to-his-game/c44a7a23-965e-4258-b651-6c2c5c41d96b
HeHateMe Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Does anyone know when we can start voting Tuel into the Pro Bowl?
SPILLERmadeUmiss Posted August 15, 2013 Author Posted August 15, 2013 Does anyone know when we can start voting Tuel into the Pro Bowl? Hopefully we trade him to Miami for a 2nd rounder like Philly did.
bobblehead Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 I like that article , but that play to Rogers would have had "pick 6" potential with a real corner in there.
SPILLERmadeUmiss Posted August 15, 2013 Author Posted August 15, 2013 I like that article , but that play to Rogers would have had "pick 6" potential with a real corner in there. Nah. Look where the CB is when he throws it. Plus, Rogers had the body to keep the CB away from the ball. Good throw.

Wow...this is crazy...it is up to $102! http://www.ebay.com/...984.m1423.l2649 Um...even if this guy turns into the next Joe Montana or Tom Brady, that card is not going to be worth a $102.00 a month from now, let alone 5 years from now!

I wonder if it'll go higher now. Looks like we may find out just how valuable Tuel is. Not the way I wanted it to happen though.
Alphadawg7 Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Jeff Tuel is more like to become Bills' version of Kurt Warner than Manning but I think he did a great job with what he was given. Kurt Warner was a much better Post Season QB than Manning who is a choke artist in the post season
