billsfanmiami(oh) Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Why this guy is even on a roster is laughable.
CSBill Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 I'm sure he's a nice guy. I'm sure that his family loves him. But Jeff Tuel is obviously not an NFL-quality backup, and never will be. Get Flynn ready, and find someone else on the waiver wire. We don't need any more data or practice reps. He can't play. I'm glad he got that TD pass, because even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while and he'll need something to show his grandkids. But he needs to be released. Of course, he won't be because Ralph is concerned about full stadia and refills on tapioca. But I digress. just stop
J-Bo Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 If I'm the coach, I run it a third time from the 1 yard line and either score or kick the field goal to go up 13-3. KC's offense would have to respond, and they did not do squat through that point!!!!
Dorkington Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 I think he's fine, just not starter material right now. Once Thad and EJ are back, see if you can put Tuel on PS, and get rid of Dixon/Flynn.
todd Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Huge mistake by marrone and whaley having two QBs with zero inexperience going into the season as our QBs. Stupid mistake.
tito1 Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 He played about as well as Thad has been playing. He played bette than I thought he would, but I couldn't disagree anymore.
Rob's House Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) Oh my !@#$ing God. What did you guys expect out of a UDFA rookie? Yeah, he was bad. It's funny because when our first round pick sucks ass we're all reminded that he's a rookie, but when a guy who's lucky to make the roster plays a similarly poor game we get unbridled outrage. Simmer down, people. I know it's aggravating. I'm mad too, but let's not blast this kid for being in this position. Edited November 3, 2013 by Rob's House
RussellDopeland Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 It's amazing how mant Tuel apologists there are on this board. If, after that dreadful showing, you can say "Oh, he tried" or "Oh, he made a few mistakes", I honestly don't know what to say. I'm dumbfounded that anyone would defend such atrocious QB play.
5 Wide Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Doesn't look like he has the arm strength to play in the NFL.
Keukasmallies Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Defense looked good, improving with each passing week. Tuel was OK in my book; he played as well as Lewis, probably better than any of us expected. Drops are on the receiver, not the thrower. But for the penalties, dropped passes, etc, most of us wouldn't even question the play calling. Get over it, the Bills are in transition from a decade of awful to being an actual NFL team--two years to go!
Gray Beard Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Embarrassing thread. AgreeWas it Tuel's fault that so many passes were dropped? He floats balls, but he didn't stink the place up by any means. He showed poise by throwing the ball away, running a little, and calling time-out at a smart time. He's not starter material, but as a THIRD STRING he's not that bad.
JohnnyBuffalo Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 He played as well as I expected. He didn't fumble for the TD. And that pick was blown coverage that was such dumb luck I can't stand it. Figure out how to power one in from the friggin 1 foot line and there are 2 more wins this year! Oh yeah someone needs to ask Chandler if was up for playing football today. That candy a$$ can't fight for YAC with the smallest db on him and nice hands today dude. What a giant wuss.
DefenseWinzChampionshipz Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 He's not good but who is healthy and better? This loss is on Hackett much more than Tuel. Missing Stevie in the endzone and throwing a pick 6 was the game. All Tuel, not Hackett. Sorry man. You wrong on that one big time.
RyanC883 Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Thad didn't have 8 drops by his receivers. Thad took 5 sacks a game, Tuel took zero. Thad had 2-3 turnovers per game, tuel had 2. They played about the same. Tuel's turnovers handed KC 10 points.
Security Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Thad has completed 60% of his passes and has a QBR of 80. It's not even close I wish we had Tarvaris Jackson still. I think QBR somehow needs to include fumbles, Thad puts the ball on the ground. QBR needs to computer fumbles and fumbles lost somehow.
LB3 Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 I guarantee there are at least 20 guys who could be in uniform tomorrow better than Jeff Tuel. Horrible comment. Name twenty 3rd string qbs off of the top of your head.
DefenseWinzChampionshipz Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 When was the last time you saw a Bills offense put up 500 yards on offense?
Nyghtewynd Posted November 3, 2013 Author Posted November 3, 2013 Oh my !@#$ing God. What did you guys expect out of a UDFA rookie? I expect a semi-competent NFL franchise to never have to start a QB as bad as an UDFA rookie. When they do, it's on them.
