    It's nice to have 3 QB's that might start versus 3 QB's that can't start

    I'm sitting here thinking, It's nice to have 3 QB's that might start versus 3 QB's that can't start. Can you even compare the possibilities of EJ / Kolb / Tuel to anyone since Drew Bledsoe ? We're heading the right way at a very key spot, just thought we need to remember how fortunate to have things completely turn around.

    Sorry man but this just isn't what I'm seeing.

    Kolb is average as a starter at this point. EJ is a rookie. Tuel has looked good against backups.

    It's simply not a case where we have 3 starting caliber QB's.

      You're missing my point, any one of these 3 could help us win. Over the previous 10 years, I wouldn't even consider our back-ups as anywhere near starting material. Point being, we have 3 guys that could lead us somewhere versus one that might & 2 that could never.

        After one pre-season game, you've decided that Tuel can "help us win"?

          You ever seen Gibran Hamdan perform like either of these guys ? It was their first game, not one INT.

            Wow. Since he's better than Hamdan, he must be ready to contribute. Tuel played extremely well, but I need to see more before I'm ready to suggest he can "help us win".

              More games would be better but a well played game speaks for itself.

                No, it means he played well one game. If he stinks Friday, does the Indy game look as good? It's amazing to me that people want to form such definitive opinions after one game (positive and negative). It's very short sighted.

                  I remember calls for Nall ball... I'm a poet and I didn't even know it.

                    Would any of our back-ups over the past 10 years have a chance to start on another team's roster ? Did any of them ? No. Could these guys start on another team's, yes & Kolb already has for the Eagles / Cards. Our previous back-ups have been horrible, so we've improved at the QB position. Depth is not a bad thing as any position in the NFL, we've had no depth whatsoever at QB since 1999 / 2000.

                      So I'm clear, you're suggesting Tuel would have a chance to start on another team right now? Depth isn't a bad thing? That's super profound, but who stated it was?

                        None of our back-ups over the past 10 years could of possibly started on another team & nor did they, none. We've created some good depth at our QB position, just to be clear. We've also created some good depth at WR as well, all in one year. That's us moving in the right direction, suprisingly.

                          Tuel wouldn't be a starter anywhere, come on man.

                          Kevin Kolb might be on his last chance to prove he can start in this league.

                          Manuel is an unknown.

                            Well, Tuel can be a starter in Skooby land.

                              I didn't say he'd be a starter now but he could be a starter, none of our recent back-ups could ever make that claim.
