I don't know about that. At the time of the signing we were going to get a thunder and lightning 2.0 combination going again. I don't think that the FO knew how good Murphy would look in preseason. We also didn't plan to have Spillers knee become as worrisome as it's been.

Since TC started Murphy has allowed Spiller time to recover from his injury while he becomes familiar with this complex system. Spiller is a willing blocker and that can be tough on a smaller man. Also, we still have my man Robinson toting the rock and looking damn good doing it. I'm not worried about RB depth. We have enough depth to get value for a trade if needed.

Spiller was always playing hurt. Red flags were there. If Spiller can't make the cut or have that burst then he is no good to us.

Google - a resource often used to prove one's point within a fan forum discussion, often times to locate obscure stats used to confuse other posters hopefully throwing them off the trail of bull-****e.
