Coach Tuesday Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) A woman I worked with had tweaked her knee skiing several years earlier and it bugged her. She never limped. Got it scoped, was on crutches for about 10 days, and a week later she was dancing up a storm at the company Christmas party. She said it felt like it did before the injury. She was in her 40s at the time. There is more to that story and shame on you for not providing it. We all know how those office Christmas parties go, especially when the MILFs start dancing up a storm. I want details.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Tuel time ! I would wager There is zero percent chance the Bills are even close to thinking Teul should be the opening day starter. If they decide against Kolb you'd see a flurry of waiver activity.

bisonbrigade Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 This is my take, The first drive sealed the deal for EJ Manuel and the coaching staff decided he is the real deal. After the game EJ had some slight swelling and he had his knee drained which is "minor Surgery", and as a precaution will sit him for the next weeks game. He was never going to play in the 4th preseason game anyhow. This will give him the staff a chance to see if Kolb is a total bust and if they need to pursue a decent backup. This will also disguise who the QB will be when they play the Patriots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Ballstein Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 ...I get the feeling that EJ is going to have more than his share of injuries like this. Horrible for the team short/long term. nomination for worst post of the year................. A woman I worked with had tweaked her knee skiing several years earlier and it bugged her.

simpleman Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 plus the starters do not play the 4th game of the season! Thinking good thoughts. I would feel better if Kolb did not reek in the last game. But only the real Kool-aide drinkers expected a winning season this year anyway, this is a rebuilding season with a new attitude and a lot of rookies with real potential learning how to win. The realists among us just hoped for real growth and a team consistently winning and jelling by the end of the season so we were ready for a real drive next year. But the statement about the starters not playing the final game is something I'm not so sure of. That is the old way of approaching the preseason, and the exciting thing this year is the coaching staff is approaching preseason a whole different way! It has shown in the first two games as the other teams have looked under-motivated and poorly coached compared to the crispness and execution of the Bills. This new attitude about winning in the preseason, instead of just getting through it, is exhilarating and promising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Ballstein Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) "the real kool aid drinkers only" ? theres talent everywhere on this team...........no reason to assume they can't have a winning season. dead weight gone at qb and coaching staff. some real lb's brought in. woods/stevie/(dare i say Easley) are gonna be awesome this year.......**you can see Woods is a gamer already IMO. 49ers were turrrible turned it around in one year. Same w seahawks among others it's really not that far fetched once you kick the bums like gailey and wanny out.

CardinalScotts Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 What is Kolb going to do vs the pats? This is a disaster man beat them last year...sshhh!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 exactly how i feel...much ado about nothing...in an earlier post i laid out a similar sentiment but used the phrase 'head game', i think you put it much better than I did. this is an 'excuse' to use kolb & tuel exclusively in the ever so important week 3 preseason without coming under tremendous media and fan base scrutiny.... This is my take, The first drive sealed the deal for EJ Manuel and the coaching staff decided he is the real deal. After the game EJ had some slight swelling and he had his knee drained which is "minor Surgery", and as a precaution will sit him for the next weeks game. He was never going to play in the 4th preseason game anyhow. This will give him the staff a chance to see if Kolb is a total bust and if they need to pursue a decent backup.

KellyToTasker Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 A great defense and good running game will turn things around in a hurry. Call me a Kool-Aid drinker, cool.....I'm a Kool-Aid drinker. They played very well against two playoff teams. In which, both games resulted in "Kool-Aid drinking" statements from the opposing organizations.....Irsay's apologizing tweet to the Colts' fan base and Ponder's comment on our "exotic" defense. I'm excited for the change in culture, young talent, and the direction they're heading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Hopefully just a minor setback with a fast enough recovery time for EJ to be ready on September 8th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tennesseeboy Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Am I wrong that the final preseason game is usually one where most starters rest and there is a rush to avoid injuries? And if EJ is cleared for a solid week of practice before game 1 I suspect he would start. Much as I hate the patriots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donald Duck Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Hopefully just a minor setback with a fast enough recovery time for EJ to be ready on September 8th. After having an evening to get past my initial dissapointment over EJ's injury, I agree, EJ Manuel is a very quick study and this minor setback is not going to stop Manuel from becoming the 1st franchise QB The Buffalo Bills have had in over a decade.

Good to hear about your breathing pattern returning to normal. He'll still get mental reps at practice and be deep in the playbook in order to be properly prepared.

Chef Jim Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Yea well then you should be in a chat room called love for western new york n get the hell outta TBD... Yeah because TSW is the only forum on TBD. Take a walk around here. Did you ever notice that's there are more forums here that are dedicated to things other than the BIlls or even sports? Get the hell out of TBD. LOL!! No way, man....the Chef rules. That is all. Well except when it comes to soccer threads. F. U This is one of the reasons why I cut my emotional tie with the team. You lose perspective of what's important in life. Oh that and Mondays tended to suck more than not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobillsinytown Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I'd call this the "RGIII effect". Shannahan learned that the hard way last year. I think Marrone is playing it safe. If it were during the regular season he might be out a week. Now we can find out whether either of the other two QB's on the roster can make a good backup. So I'll take the positive side and say that now we can find out if Kolb or Tuel can play backup, or whether the team needs to bring another vetran in.
