mattsox Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 If Kolb plays well during the rest of the preseason, he probably will start week 1. If he struggles and Manuel is recovered, Manuel will likely start week 1. Agreed.
BillsMakeMeShout Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Long time reader. First time poster. I hope and think the EJ era officially starts on September 8.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 No Tuel votes so far? #tueltime its not tuel time
Rocky Landing Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 You're going to need to do this pool again after the Deadskins game. "Deadskins" is a derogatory term that denigrates zombies.
iinii Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Unless Kolb plays very well against Washington or EJ is not ready, Manuel starts. Sounds strange so I must be wrong.
White Linen Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Ask me again after this weekend's game, and my vote may change. As of right now, though, I lean towards EJ. To me it's about one thing, if EJ's knee is ready to go he starts. I wouldn't even entertain the idea of Kolb playing well enough to let EJ rest one more week. If EJ's not quite ready and Kolb plays terrible Kolb plays anyway. If EJ's healthy and Kolb lights it up, EJ starts. Thus for me making this game irrelevant. What were your thoughts on this game possibly changing your vote?
Luka Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 I am gonna go with EJ (if he's healthy, which it sounds like he will be) because I can't see Marrone starting Kolb unless EJ is missing a leg.
Matt in KC Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Long time reader. First time poster. I hope and think the EJ era officially starts on September 8. Welcome! I agree with the first part, but not the second.

If EJ's healthy and Kolb lights it up, EJ starts. Thus for me making this game irrelevant. What were your thoughts on this game possibly changing your vote? EJ has had two games, this will be Kolb's second game. If Kolb lights it up, I could see the coaches going with the veteran and the (possibly) healthier player at the moment. No matter what, though, I would prefer EJ to play, since I don't like Kolb.
ReturnoftheBuffaloBeast23 Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 DIdn't Tuel throw 2 - one to Rodgers and one to Kaufman? Maybe I'm remembering wrong. Your right its Manuel 2 Kolb 0 Tuel 2... Thats even worst for Kolb he needs a touchdown ASAP...

l< j Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Gotta read the Manuel before using the Tuel. (Sorry.) kj
Clutchwarfare Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) It all counts on the knee. Cant answer without an injury update. Gotta read the Manuel before using the Tuel. (Sorry.) kj Great post! ^ Edited August 22, 2013 by Clutchwarfare
Meatloaf Sandwich Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 But who do you think will start ? Okay So you think Tuel will be more ready than EJ ? ...E. J. M a n u e l
26CornerBlitz Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 The outcome of this poll is going to be close.
machine gun kelly Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Bottom line is Manuel if they feel he is healthy for the game. If not, then does Kolb blow it, or does Tuel light it up? If one is so strong and one so light you could eithere thing happening. I don't think Marrone will give it to Kolb if he is horrible the next two games, but at the same time, I don't see him ginvign the keys to Tuel unless he is absolutely lights out. The real answer is Manuel, figure it out, but get out there week 1. I can't wait to see him live as I'm flying my boys up to buffalo for their first home game. Can't wait to expose them to Mighty Taco, Blasdell Pizza, Beef and Weck, and a Teds of course. Yes, my wife told me we'll run 5 miles each day to compensate. We'll need it with the Gennys, and OV's I'll be drinking with the family. Go Bills!
mountainwampus Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Just taking a shot in the dark with Tuel. It seems like Kolb has a good chance of injuring himself during preseason, and EJ may not be ready, so... Tuel Time. Doubling down on this prediction.
Fan in Chicago Posted September 4, 2013 Author Posted September 4, 2013 This poll is about as simple as it gets. I want to see who TBD predicts will start against NE in Game 1. This is not about who should start or who you want to start . This is about who you think will start. I want EJ to start but think that Kolb will start (Marrone may take the safe way out against a division rival). So I vote Kolb. Have at it. In light of today's announcement that EJ will start, I thought it appropriate to resurrect this thread. The majority of you were correct - 62% voted that EJ will start. I was wrong. Go Bills !!!
