Why was this ever a question?

Several reasons why, at that time, it was a question.

First, EJ was injured and it was unknown how serious it was or how quickly he would be game ready. It is heartening to see the kid put in the effort and come back fairly quickly

 

Second, it was not not entirely clear what was happening behind the scenes and whether Marrone would decide who is more suited to win more games this season. In my mind, it wasn't just about winning the first game. It was about who would win more this entire season.

 

In any case, as you can see 38% of those responding thought that Tuel or Kolb will start - not an insignificant percentage. Hence, it was a question in several people's mind, including mine.

 

Having said all that, I am happy I was wrong because the decision tells me that Marrone is convinced about EJ's potential and readiness.

While I was wrong about Tuel starting... I absolutely nailed the Kolb injury prediction. :thumbsup: I mean, not that I'm glad the guy got injured or anything, but it was just so obvious that he was an injury waiting to happen.
