Do The Bills Like Jeff Tuel More Than EJ Manuel?

[BillsImpossible]

Don't shoot the cabbie!

Tuel took 2nd string reps tonight, and did well.

EJ Manuel did not do well. He got picked by an undrafted rookie, had a couple of nice passes, and threw a horrible pass or three.

Has anyone seen or even heard about a passing TD in 5 training camp practices?

Mark Kelso went out of his way to mention how Tuel made the proper reads on defense, and John Murphy said something along the lines of, "the best the offense has looked," and then caught himself in mid sentence.

Manuel struggles in the pocket. His footwork remains a work in progress, and he has not improved his accuracy.

If it weren't for Sammy Watkins and his incredible receiving skills, Manuel's completion percentage in training camp would be 50% at best.

I think there will soon be a competition for the starting quarterback job in Buffalo.

Fire away.

Tuel looked good last year's camp too.

As far as EJ is concerned, you either come into the NFL with accuracy or you don't. You don't just one day in your early to mid twenties after playing QB all of your life wake up one day and can suddenly throw the ball where you want. EJ has never been "accurate" and never will be.

Tuel was picked by some dude named Kamaal McIlwain. Who you asked? Yep.

[better days]

It will be remarkable if Tuel overtakes Lewis for the back up QB job.

[Novacane]

Of course they like him better than EJ! Who wouldn't like the next Tom Brady better?

Both Tuel and Lewis struggled yesterday in the 5th day of camp. I wouldn't get overly excited about the Bills back-up QBs at this point.

Or the QB situation in general.

Maybe watch Bills roundup once in a while before asking such an asinine questions. There have been plenty of passes that would/could of been TD's. Two days in a row Manuel hit Watkins on 70 yd. TD's that were perfectly placed, yet no one mentions it because there seems to be more people that like to dwell on every negative play or pass and downplay everything that is positive It's those kind of attitudes that are turning much of society into a bunch of cynical *******s that think they are entitled to everything (CAS).

Good thing we have a first round draft pick next year to get another QB

If the Bills don't do well and do their usual picking at spot 10-11 again, they wouldn't be in position to take a stud QB next year anyway.

Only I should be licensed to use the word "stud".

It sounds totally gay when the rest of u use it.

And we can't even replace him with our early 1st round draft position.

They'll trade up from pick 42 to number 1.

Why not? Deficit spending in the rule of the land...

Two 70 yard bombs to Watkins, the media says nada and then goes ape crap over a one handed catch. I agree.

Negative plays outweigh the positive, unfortunately. If EJ wasn't making bad mistakes, the media might bark at those 70 yard bombs.

Take away Sammy Watkins from EJ Manuel and wonder how this training camp would look without him.
