Rugby Saint II

God I hope Payton sticks to his MO and eases him back in.

Does it really matter SP has no idea to use RBs anyway and Spiller will just find another bump or bruise to get back in the ice tub

Maybe he will, maybe he won't

Hightower was released for Joe Morgan

I guess it'll be cool to see what he brings to the table... Problem is that two years ago the rest of the league figured out how we use guys like Bush/Sproles/Spiller. If Spiller being in the game draws coverage away from someone else creating an opportunity then that's good, but Payton's offense reached it's peak in 2011 and it's stale now.

Spiller is nothing like Bush/Sproles. Bush is scatback with limited run sight, normal speed, and not a fighter. Sproles is a little speed midget with limited run sight, but hes so damn small defenses lose where hes at. An upgrade to Bush.
Payton has a good eye for RB, but rarely gets what he wants. He wanted B. Lynch more than everyone Ive seen, but couldnt land the deal.
He wanted Spiller out of college also.
Spiller is on a whole different level. Kid is fast, has full 1/10 second sight, and foresight to see down the field. Plus a fighter, probably why he got hurt on a crappy Bills team. Walked into the NFL and was ready to go day one. No lets wait till ingram get it. Hes a Deuce type RB mentally, nothing is good enouph. People might forget spiller was Buffalo. Watch their OL they suck. Kids got heart in spades, and a natural real RB to back it up. ITs no wonder to me payton wanted him.

Bills Focus: C.J. Spiller Wired For Sound


C.J. Spiller Highlights

I wouldnt even put them in the same discussion. Spiller makes holes. Everyone knows I have my own oppinion here, and willing to take the lumps if wrong, but Im not about this guy. Spiller is going to suprise alot of the Who Dat nation.

Saints proved that pigs could fly in 2009.
Now its time for another miracle SuperBowl and go where no pig has gone before.

Pherein, with all due respect... You missed the point. Payton will probably be using him the same way we used Bush and Sproles. Teams have figured it out. Yes Spiller is talented, but I guarantee teams know how we plan on using him and will see it coming a mile away.

Chris I think your missing the point. Spiller doesnt care about SP plan, he wants TDs. Thats my point. Hes not the same at all. and even in the same roll, hes better than both of them because he can actually run. Remember how Bush used to look back running, thats a very stupid thing you see in none natural egotistic RB's who think they have talent. Eyes should always be forward running your heart out till you get 7 like Deuce. You never look back or your an idoit.

I want it to work Pherein believe me... I guess I've just become a little frustrated with Payton's play-calling these last couple years. I'm definitely hoping you're right and I'm wrong because that would mean great things for our team!
