Hot Buffalo Wings Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Chris Brown @ChrisBrownBills Great hands catch by Woods in end zone w/Gilmore blanketing him. EJ stuck ball in tight spot, Woods made play. #Bills 34s Sal Capaccio @SalSports 7-7 red zone work: EJ fires a bullet to back of end zone where Robert Woods beats Gilmore for TD. Coverage was tight. Throw was great. JoeB and Rodak missed this play I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Haha. EJ has the best scrimmage and Taylor has the 2nd best. So of course Matt Cassel gets the most reps with the 1s.

JESSEFEFFER Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Sounds to me like they are getting Cassel more time with the 1's in preparation for Carolina. Seems like Taylor will be 2nd in.

No Manuel. This is ridiculous. In almost every practice Cassell has seen time with the ones and then either Taylor or Manuel will see time with the ones. The next day it switches. Rex said that the scrimmage and the games will play a big part of the QB decision process. Manuel started the scrimmage. Cassell is going to start the first preseason game, and then Rex has already said that either Taylor or EJ would start the second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABills Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Mike Rodak ✔ @mikerodak In burn the clock situation, Tyrod Taylor fumbled snap from Alex Kuller in 2nd team portion. Recovered by D.

shibuya Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Fact....guarantee...I do not think these words mean what you think they mean Come on now.. You've been watching this guy for as long as I have. It is pretty much fact and it is pretty much guaranteed. I have supported him but this is year 3 and he shows no signs of consistency There is a slim chance he fixes this, But I'm betting the entire farm and saying it never happens. He may be serviceable but he will always be maddening inconsistent and inaccurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoretalk Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 According to Sal C on WGR this morning, EJ Manuel has no chance of starting because of yesterday's practice. So there it is folks, the QB competition is officially over, according to WGR. I have not heard Sal C say that at any time. Sal's been pretty clear in reporting the inconsistencies in EJ's practices but not once has Sal been heard to say that any one of the three is out of contention. I think Sal said that we are getting close to the time when the decision will be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassel had the best day yesterday and is starting the preseason game. I guess but isn't the whole competition the big picture. What qb won't benefit from more reps with the 1s. Cassel has had by far the most reps, and minus one practice, has never excelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
