1billsfan Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 "Manuel on the evaluation process: 'A lot of it is going to be based on the games'" ^This. If any of these QBs starts looking great in a couple of scrimmages/games they have the starting job. I think Bills fans more than any other in the NFL are really going to have by far the most anticipation in watching these preseason games. They are huge in what are offense is going to look like (Cassel vs Manuel/Taylor) and who is actually picked to start the season. Whoever is picked is not going to have a lock on the job though. This will make for a very week in week out unsettled feeling this year. I just hope that Manuel or Taylor can magically come through a solidify the position once and for all. Chances look slim for that though. I really don't want Cassel starting for this team. NFL greatness is about taking chances, not going with a journeyman backup who's marginally more consistent than the two younger QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd just like to see how they do in actual game situations against any defense that isn't ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Caveat: I'm not thrilled with the reports out of TC regarding the Bills' QBs The preseason games are going to be huge. These guys are practicing against one of the best and deepest defenses in the league. I know some view that as a crutch or an excuse, but it's reality. Let's see what they do against some other teams who aren't as talented on the defensive side of the ball (which is just about everyone). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking yesterday...With the known fact that this team is going to built around the Defense and the run game would it not be a FAR bigger issue if one, two, or all three of these QB's were lighting it up in Camp so far?

KingRex Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 The key to the QB battle is that there is a real possibility that the Bills D might pitch a shut-out holding the opponents offense to zero0 points. The model for this Bills team to make the playoffs is the same one Baltimore used to make failed1st round pick Trent Dilfer an SB winner. Can anyone out there make a serious case that manul, Cassel. Tyler (or even Simms) is capable of leading of leading this (or any other) NFL team to glory? Nope. The success (or failure) to make the playoffs will be determined by: 1. How the DL does- Prospects look very good 2. Whether the LBs step up- Prospects look quite possible 3. Whether our secondary steps up- McKelvin lack of recovery challenges depth but early Darby results make prospects good. ST also needs to continue level achieved at end of last season. Its very tough to win an SB with mainly a great D, but Balt shows it can be done. The good news for us is that winning the SB is not our key goal, "merely" making the playoffs is. We can do this led by our D and the QB battle is really little more than an interesting sideshow for the true prospects of this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papazoid Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Brent Axe: ‘EJ Manuel Is A Hot Mess’ “Can I combine ‘hot mess’ into one word?” Axe asked on CBS Sports Radio’s The DA Show. “That’s really the best way to describe E.J. Manuel. He’s overthrowing open receivers during routine drills with no defense on wide receivers. He’s overthrowing open receivers that have defense on them. He’s under-throwing running backs and receivers just on those short screen passes. And now let’s add in the fact that a brand-new thing on the E.J. Manual docket is he’s fumbling a lot of snaps during training camp as well. He just doesn’t look confident. I think he knows he’s got to show something in this camp. I think he’s pressing, and I think he just has not looked good at all. http://da.radio.cbssports.com/2015/08/06/brent-axe-ej-manuel-is-a-hot-mess/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
