Seriously.... Seriously?!?! Buffalo starting Jeff Tuel week 1.
Un-fukkin-real.
Some teams are just painfully incompetent when it comes to personnel management.

Why are you guys complaining?? Hell prob have a a good start or two cause lack of film on him but then its gonna be free money everytime he lines up. The other teams defense will.be sending a limo to pick him up for the game.

Detroit should win easily but Schwartz is a shit coach and they draft a bunch of numnuts that rack up 120 yds of penalties when you bet on them. The Buffalo crowd seems to go crazy early in the year too.....pass either way although I'd lean Buffalo if EJ Manuel can play. He reminds me of Dante Culpepper....who was pretty decent for several years even though Randy Moss padded his numbers for him.

do you follow them or do you just ignore everything that happens to a team? He's not starting because they believe him to be better than anyone. Kolb has a concussion, Manuel is not cleared to play. The coach said as of now he is the starter because no one else is physically able to play. That might change, but it might not. You can't proceed as if he won't be the starter because if Manuel isn't ready then what? I'm sure these NFL teams and coaches know more than you.

Whether or not the Bills cover in this game depended more on Stephon Gilmore and not the QB. Get ready for the Pats to score on nearly every drive. Whether that's a FG or TD who knows, but the Bills will be lucky to force punts.

That is exactly what I am talking about.

Tuel for the Bills and likely Smith for the Jets. Pats should runaway with the division again this year when you look at the state of those 2 shit teams, and the Dolphins do not impress

Getting paid millions of dollars, have millions of dollars, and you went out of your way to get EJ Manuel and Concussion Kolb, and then are shocked when Kolb gets concussed, and have zero backup plan.
Let me say it again, Tuel is the starting QB.
No matter how you want to spin it, if that happens, you failed your job.

Line wasn't far off before Manuel and Gilmore injuries. It moved because of those injuries. Don't act like it moved for anything else

only decent 3QB team is the redskins. With the Bills being so bad at so many other positions they can't spend a lot of money on 3QBs and Kolb was next best option, you don't sign QBs thinking your third will be your starter

EJ is starting week 1.
the key word is the bills PLAN to start Tuel....with EJ not practicing they have to move on in practice with the only QB who knows the system right now.
EJ WILL START WEEK 1

I have CJ Spiller in one fantasy team so that works out. If the Bills are smart they trade for Colt McCoy.

5Dimes currently has it @ 11.5
Love where the knee jerk reaction is taking the line. Manuel hasn't been completely ruled out for week 1, so the uncertainty will keep the not-the-same-Pats-from-2012 guessing. But if undrafted rookie Tuel does start, know this: he has completed better than 72 percent of his passes with a 106.6 passer rating in the preseason. The Bills ground attack i.e. Spiller/Jackson is not something to be ignored either. Not saying the Bills will pull off an upset, but to expect NE to clobber the Bills in Buffalo in the first game of the season...

The bills are prepping for Tuel to start week 1. They are planning, prepping, getting ready for.
Kolb the concussion man or EJ Mcnabfumblepepper will start week 1.
The Patriots listed Tom Brady as probable on injury for an entire year. This is an F U to Bellicheck to make him get ready for this guy. Bellicheck isn't that stupid though. He will prep for Kolb and Manuel. So in the end it doesn't matter. The Patsies win.

Me too buddy, me too.
Hoping they run the wildcat with him and he gets 40-50 touches a game.

The last team the relied on Concussion Kolb got absolutely gutted as a result.
Like I said, and will say again - that is failing to do a job competently.

i guess tarvaris wouldnt have been THAT bad of an option
tyler thigpen on line 1?
as far as spiller running the wildcat, they do have brad smith on the roster so that wouldnt happen anyway
