BuffaloFan68 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 I like Tuel. With the right coaching he'll be our #2 this year & then ready to push for a starting job in 2015.

Bills Fan since '64 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 He did! I believe he knelt the ball down 2x's for the win!. LOL Â Correct. In baseball he would have been credited with a save.
#34fan Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Everyone except Dennis Dixon. Why doesn't he get to play? Â Strikes me as weird too. I don't remember Dixon being that bad.
The Wiz Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Â EJ has never thrown a bad pass with Tuel in the game. We were talking about Tuel. Come on Kelly. You know better than to think a thread can go on without someone chiming in about EJ (good or bad). Â I'm still waiting for his name/play to come up in the art voice stadium thread though.
eball Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 IMO it was a perfect pass to a receiver that needed to go up and get the ball. Easley was in position until he stumbled. If Easley does not fall, the ball is not intercepted and there is a good chance that it results in a TD. I like EJ as our #1 and Tuel as the #2. As the game slows down for them, and the O line improves, I think the Bills have got their QB's. Â The only person who thought that pass was perfect was the DB who caught it. Perhaps a QB just "throws one up there" to a HOF receiver who has proven an ability to go up and get the ball. This was not such a scenario. As a QB you simply cannot be so careless with the ball. Tuel turns it over in scoring territory like nobody's business.

I do not think they are mentioning his name in the HOF. Easly sucks is the real problem.

Williams had position in front of the DB and a size advantage -- plus he is specifically known for going up and "high-pointing" the ball. EJ's throw was going to be caught by MW or no one. Â The plays are night and day.

Â The plays are night and day. I watched both of them several times. When the ball is at the 7 yard line it looks like a TD, then Easly falls. Easly should have had it. Watkins, Williams or even Hogan in at receiver, at its a touchdown. Edited August 10, 2014 by OldNMBillsFan

I do not think they are mentioning his name in the HOF. Easly sucks is the real problem. Untrue. On the Tuel pass the DB was looking at the QB and in perfect position as soon as the ball was snapped. He had a better chance at the ball the entire play. The DB in the Mike Williams play was never a threat to intercept it. Tuel's ball was lofted way more, too. It was a turible decision and pass. If you watch it again, watch the DB, not Easley or Tuel a few times. He has the play all the way.

I do not think they are mentioning his name in the HOF. Easly sucks is the real problem. Â That was my take too. Easley running into the ground and not breaking like he was supposed to seemed to be the issue. It's not like Tuel didn't see the CB, I would think. Â I would really like to hear the coaches' take on that play.
djp14150 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Is this some foreign concept of having Lewis and Tuel alternate playing with 2nd and 3rd stringers?

BetterNextYearRight? Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 I'd still rather keep Lewis especially after seeing that the HOF game was a result of playing with a bunch of 3rd/4th stringers. I'd keep Tuel as the 3rd QB, just don't see a big difference between him and Thad. For now especially with how critical this year is the Bills should have the more experienced QB in. Â Thad kept us in games and gave us a competitive chance, the guy is a baller. Â Not a Tuel hater, just really don't see the upside some posters mention.

3rdand12 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Maybe? The guy could have called a fair catch. Lol. My toss was just as weak and you snatched it . fair deal. easley still did not execute his steps
