bills44 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 he had 26 touches, which is a decent number, IMO. The complaints about his pass blocking are blown way out of proportion, but any specific complaints about his job in pass protection today?

sodbuster Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Man, on the Graham reception later in the game, he stopped a blitz dead in its tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramius Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 26 touches for 173 yards of offense. But no, he obviously can't handle more than 15 touches, right? If our coach wasn't such a complete raging idiot, we'd be talking about 2 RBs chasing the 2,000 yard mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is Yuri? Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I wish there was a Spiller highlight package each week. Even on short runs, he makes moves that I immediately want to watch over and over (with my jaw on the floor). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 All kidding aside, I think Dorin D. could be a player. Aside from his drops and fumble today, he has shown he can get open. I'd like to see him more in a 2 tight end set If our offensive can get a good pocket passer and lock up Levitre, I can see the Bills offense (hopefully) transitioning into a 49er type, 2 tight end, smash em, run run play action team. I do not think this is Chan's style at all, but since it's almost Christmas, I can always hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dibs Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I can't believe Chan didn't get Choice more touches! What a joke... Was Spiller winded today? I was befuddled that after Spiller's 61 yard run to the 23 he was not put back onto the field that drive. There was a timeout ....and then a passing play ....then Choice gets his 1 carry of the game(-3 yards) ....and then Choice stays in for 3rd & 13 on the 26 I guess his 61 yard run must have really winded him.

The Poojer Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 normally i am on your side on this one...but that was no ordinary 61 yard run...that had more cutbacks than the camden nj police department....(see what i did there?)...but seriously that was an incredible run....

Not really....I live in Australia....don't even know what a camden is. I have never played sport at a very high level so I may be way off base.....but I would have thought a pro athlete should be fit enough to get back on the field after a run like that within 2 minutes. I'm likely wrong(I'm sure people will correct me) but here are some times.... From standing after the 61 yarder.... 1 minute & 6 seconds till next snap(pass) 1 minute & 49 seconds till next(Choice run) 2 minutes & 28 seconds till the last(3rd down) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Not really....I live in Australia....don't even know what a camden is. camden nj is one of the more dangerous cities in the us...directly across the river from Philly...despite the heavy crime rates, they had a significant cutback in the police force about a year ago... and to the point..CJ being a world class athlete, i am sure you are correct in your assumption, he should probably be conditioned to do more than a single long run, no matter how hard it was.... but i am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt on that particular run...

Don't get me wrong....I wasn't questioning Spiller's conditioning....more questioning the coaches decision to question his conditioning. I personally think that a slightly puffed Spiller would be more effective than a totally fresh Choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Spiller obviously didn't get the memo about the Bills throwing these last two games. He was benched for trying to break free for a score. The refs, on the other hand, obviously got the memo and did their part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSBill Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 well, he did look pretty winded after that run, and, someone did catch him from behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 OK but seriously, this guy is so special, he should have been getting 25-30 touches a game minimum all year long. When Fred is out, 40 touches. I resisted Spiller for 2.5 years but I admit I was WRONG. Why can't Chan admit it? After all he drafted the guy!!
