Captain Hindsight Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 RELEASE THE SHIFT KEY AND TAKE A FLYER ON PROPER CASE.
Homey D. Clown Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Matt Shaub released. If I were the Bills brain trust I would release Tuel and bring in Shaub for a three way battle for the Bille QB. Tuel vs Shaub, I am sure Shaub would win that battle anyday. It is possible he could beat out EJ for our 3rd or 2nd string QB. I see Shaub as an upgrade over the entire roster at this point... I'd say bring him in to at least provide veteran leadership.
BobDVA Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 http://scores.espn.go.com/nfl/boxscore?gameId=331103002 a couple of unforced errors by an undrafted rookie. I thought Tuel showed good command of the huddle and did surprisingly well in that game, against what was the number 1 defense in the league at that time and an undefeated team. 241 yards rushing, 229 passing, kind of looks like what Rex is looking for. I would not be surprised if Tuel beat out Cassel and Taylor.
Kelly the Dog Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 I would not be surprised if Tuel beat out Cassel and Taylor. And that is why sometimes authorities have to intervene.
Kelly the Dog Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 Did Tuel run over your dog? He's a prime suspect and frankly, has no alibi.
Nanker Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 At least the Tuel hate is not at EJ levels. Oh, just give it a chance. It's just getting started.
BobbyC81 Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 I see Shaub as an upgrade over the entire roster at this point... I'd say bring him in to at least provide veteran leadership. Schaub (with a C) signed with the Baltimore Ravens a week ago.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 Oh, just give it a chance. It's just getting started. Agreed. There's a weird amount of Tuel hate. I like the kid.
3rdand12 Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 Shaub's arm seems like it's shot. Ongoing tendonitis maybe? I guess we could fly him in and kick the tires... but they might fall off. Trade bait ?
3rdand12 Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Agreed. There's a weird amount of Tuel hate. I like the kid. JR , i think fans folks are having short , or narrow memories. The Kid looked pretty good. The doom and gloom was started and festered since the big INT. I had hopes for him, very seriously. Coaches will find out soon enough. i really wonder what happened to Matt S for that huge drop off. Some of you mentioned a mental thing. seems possible to me.
LOVEMESOMEBILLS Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Agreed. There's a weird amount of Tuel hate. I like the kid. It's not about hate, I like the guy also, seems nice. What time he has had on the field, admittedly brief, is just awful. A completion percentage of 44, 1 TD, 3 INTS, he averages 5.25 an attempt and his QB rating is 45. Even taking out the Browns game, against KC 18 of 39 for 229 an average of 5.8 an attempt with 1 TD and 2 INTS, a QBR of 16 and passer rating of 52.2. Once again I understand it's only two games, but those are really bad stats.
Dragonborn10 Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Tuel will not make it to training camp. The Bills will draft a QB and that will be the end of Tuel time.

Once again I understand it's only two games, but those are really bad stats. Before the game, I predicted on here that he would throw for 220 yards, 1 TD, 2 INTS. And that's exactly what he did. I think your expectations were too high for an undrafted guy making his first start and against a playoff team. I thought Tuel showed some really good positives too-- including great poise in the pocket and a quick release. Now that Tuel has game experience and is in his 3rd year, if he gets a chance to compete at TC, I wouldnt be shocked if he beats Taylor out and sticks on the roster.
ALF Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 I'am fine with Tuel this season. Focus on fixing OL this year
Freddie's Dead Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 By all means, cut Teul and bring in Shaub to compete with Tierod, Manual, and Cassle.
firemedic Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 i was gonna tell you all a story involving Schaub, a drunken English soccer fan, and a late-night foot race outside a Houston bar.. when i first heard it, i thought it was funny.. and then, with what's happened to Schaub since, i think it's kinda pathetic.. anyway.. i would definitely give Schaub a chance to compete on a football field, but i wouldn't release any of my guys to make room until sitting down with him, and seeing where his head's at Awe, man, tell the story........
