Others have asked this question before , but I'll ask it again...
What have the Bills won with Spikes, McGahee, Clements, etc on the roster?
As much I enjoy watching Spikes on the field, there might be something to the fact that Cincy got good as soon as he left. Yeah, it's probably due to a better coach and a whole lot of better players, but perhaps it's not just a coincidence that the Bills, who appeared to be on the upswing when he arrived, bottomed out at the same Cincy started going to the playoffs.
Spikes might very well fall into the category of "great" players who never win anything, and in fact hinder their team from winning.
Frankly, I'd rather have a bunch of no-names that play collectively better than the sum of their parts (e.g., New England)
