Payton: "CJ Spiller is on our team!??" LOL Pathetic! I heard he doesn't play because New Orleans is below sea level!

Maybe it's not the player but the coaching. I'm starting to think this is our biggest problem.

Yep. I'm also willing to bet Hightower gets the bulk of Roll Tides carries and Spiller in on passing downs .

Re: Spiller to play 'significant' role with Mark Ingram out

I'm with ya'll. Betting Spiller ain't in the backfield because he can't pass protect in our offensive scheme, too. Protecting Brees against the rush is too vital. I'd think that's one of the reasons why they brought Austin Johnson off the PS, too.

Does this mean we will see double digit touches for #28?

Re: Spiller to play 'significant' role with Mark Ingram out

I did not realize he has only played 5 snaps all season. Thats why he seems to disappear, hes never in there. No wonder we dont see him getting the ball. It must be due to the injury in camp. I have never known Payton not to play with one of his offensive toys like he has done with Spiller.
If you think about it he has played 5 snaps and one was for a TD. Pretty good ratio lol.
Guess we will see what he is all about now.
