fansince88 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Uh oh. This cannot be good. Look for Thad Lewis to get all the second team reps tonight and Tuel to see action with the third stringers and scraps. Looks like Joe Montana's legacy is safe, at least for now. Coach said this was going to be the plan after last game. To see how he does with the twos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 and next week Tuel will get the #2 spot and then many will be calling the end of the Lewis Era. Isn't actually becoming an Era a prerequisite to calling for said Era to end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewildrabbit Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 but, but, but, I though Tuel was taking advantage of every snap he got. From what people were telling me here, he was the next Bret Favre, Donovan McNabb, Big Ben, Peyton Manning, John Elway! Joe Montana, Johnny Unitas... Four preseason games to go.

dollars 2 donuts Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) I don't want to do this back and forth. After this week, decide your number 2 and let him take the #2 reps for the rest of the preseason. ...and if you can't decide by the end of this week who the number 2 QB is then just let TSW know and we will send someone over to tap you on the head with a ball pein hammer because you're a moron (thank you "Tommy Boy", with some respectful editing). The third guy can get his time in but he can get it in at the end. I want the QB who is one "first down dive" away from being starter to get a lot time in. "blah-blah-blah, healthy competition, blah-blah-blah, only real reps"...PLEASE! Edited August 8, 2014 by dollars 2 donuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DE Bills Fan Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 That would be me Sir...feel free to put my name on top of that list and *hope* that EJ becomes the QB this team needs by Week 1 against Chicago...btw, calling me a moron doesn't invalidate my opinion, it only serves to highlight your own insecurities...as for "looking better than EJ", that's what all reports have said, from Chris Brown, to Mike Rodak to others who have observed camp - such as those on this board and a friend / co-worker of mine who made it out to camp before the first Pre Season game....rail away, yell louder if you like, your opinion does not nullify my own...I've been a gentleman and haven't resorted to pejorative terms, and will take the high-ground to simply say, as of right now we disagree...I do hope EJ is the guy, but by all accounts EJ has looked "shaky" at best...and Tuel has thus far, been a better practice QB, Pre Season game QB, and that's all there is to go on b/c IMHO both those QBs needed to show a great deal of progress and development and so far only Tuel has shown demonstrative improvement...IMO along with those others mentioned above... Totally agree with everything you said. I have NO confidence in Manuel...and why is he not getting as much practice as possible. Marrone has no clue how to prepare th QB position which bodes bad for the upcoming season... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonborn10 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Being the better practice QB and preseason game QB (against other teams' 2s and 3s) means nothing. The Trent Era should have taught all of us that. Here is the list of undrafted QBs who ended up being decent: Garcia, Romo, Moon, Warner. That's it. Ever. There's a reason Tuel wasn't drafted. He's simply not that good. Here is a list of 2011 First round QB's Cam Newton Blain Gabbert Jake Locker Christian Ponder One of four is ok. Three of four are multi million dollar busts that were scouted by hundreds of people and yet they still are complete scrubs. I will settle for Ok from EJ this year. OK from EJ means December games will matter for the first time since Mularkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickelCity Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I understand that talking in definite terms is outrageous, especially in the preseason, but I really think had Tuel not thrown the KC endzone interception, a lot more people would recall he pretty consistently moved the chains. I'm rooting for him to continue developing and to push EJ - who I also hope develops into a star qb, as we all do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Lou Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Kelly the Dog; We are rooting for the same team aren't we ? What ever players we as fans choose to like or moderately dis-like on this team is a freedom of choice. Your emotional scars regarding this topic must run pretty deep because it's easy to detect your sarcasm. But it's okay because I do welcome it, and yet I'm not at all offended by it. I have been ridiculed worse, by the worst, for 27 years and counting. Something that you will never even come close to matching. What ever it takes to heighten your self esteem Dog, please proceed to humor me. I do not dis-like you Dog, you are a fellow fan who I hold in high regard and I enjoy reading your posts, along with the many others on this forum; That is why I keep returning. It's good reading and we all have one thing in common; The love and the passion for this team. Life is the ONLY team sport Dog and it should be the only thing that the human race is united in, all the rest is just folly. Enjoy the game everybody, Lou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 Tuel was terrible. Lewis not much better if at all. EJ looked decent to good. I thought he missed that throw to Woods that should have been a TD but my guy I watch the games with who knows stuff better than me said watch the replay and he thought EJ just threw it outside where Woods should have been. I'm not sure at all. EJ looked good though. Tuel and Thad looked terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on its more fun to mess with the "Tuel to start" fans. Every week during the pre-season they will probably b swapping to get looks at both Thadius n Tuel. I am for the best man wins. However there r fans clinging on hope of Tuel as a starter so its more fun to mess with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I finally saw the giants game, and was able to evaluate all the QBs.

Because you judge an undrafted rookie thrown into a primetime game with zero experience and practice squad/third team reps? And no, I don't think Tuel has any business starting.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 The pick by Tuel in the end zone was the perfect example of why we should never want to see this guy in a real game. Watching that play again, that was a pretty sorry route by Easley. It actually looked like tuel threw it where he wanted it, trying to get Easley high on a size advantage on a skinny post. Easley wasn't sharp on the break, and then basically ran himself into the ground. Overall, I thought both Thad and tuel showed some good things and bad things during that game. But I wouldn't say either of them "sucked" or were "terrible," as some have said. With all the doomsday talk in camp, watching these last 2 games has made me feel better about the backup QB positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
