hondo in seattle Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 LaCanfora is just guessing, as he often does. I think he's guessing wrong, as he often does.

mrags Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 If true I look forward to denouncing the buffalo bills. Trading spiller is beyond stupid. denouncing the team you love because of some over rated under achieving RB... Makes sense. That's the problem with CJ. Tooany people are blinded by the flashy toy and think it's bigger than the team. LaCanfora is just guessing, as he often does. I think he's guessing wrong, as he often does.

K-9 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 oh. I'm sure of it now. It'll just take until week 8 until many others realize it. When Brown takes over as the start and CJ is hindered by some other freak injury just like any other years excuses. I truly hope I'm wrong. I truly hope I get laughed at so bad that I want to delete my account and never come back. It'll mean I was way wrong and our offense is flying high this year. Here's to me being the biggest idiot to ever show his face on TBD. Biggest idiot on TBD? That's a pretty long line. Oh, and Brown wasn't brought in to replace CJ. GO BILLS!!!

GO BILLS!!! well, I truly hope you and everyone else is right about CJ and make me look like a fool. I'll concede to it 100% if I'm wrong. I'll love with that. And you don't know that about Brown. You can say that. You can assume that. You can base it off what some of the coaches have said, but I'll put $100 on it that Brown is in the team next year and CJ isn't. That, to me, sounds like a replacement if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJDK Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 That move is too stupid for this front office, they are better than that. The old front offices would but Whaley is smarter than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just as good or better chance Freddy isn't on the team next year. And I say that knowing CJ is slated for FAgency. For all his heart and football character, Freddy has lost a step. That was obvious in training camp last season, unfortunately. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to think he ain't still that dude just because of an ankle injury last year. He's a nice weapon to have and platoon rb's is kinda turning into the norm. I'm no fan of the Stevie trade and trading Spiller would be another bad move jmo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a nice weapon to have and platoon rb's is kinda turning into the norm. I'm no fan of the Stevie trade and trading Spiller would be another bad move jmo. lol. Money bags. That's funny. 1,200 yards and like 7 TDs. If you call that money bags, I wonder what you say about good TBs that out up over 1,500 yards and 10+ TDs. No reason to think he's that kind of RB just because he had over 1,000 yards once in his career. And you can't use ankle injuries as an excuse, because it's just that. An excuse. Just like the other years of his career. Always an excuse as to why he doesn't perform. How about because he's just not that good. But you can keep making excises for him if you want. The ones that don't fall for that crap anymore just understand it's the norm every year anyway. Platoon RBs only happen when the guy that's supposed to be the starting giy isn't good enough to get it done on his own. For years you never heard these excises for MJD, Tomlinson, AP, Gore, Steven Jackson, Arian Foster, Chris Johnson, Ray Rice, The lost could go on and on really.

swnybillsfan Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 i have seriously NEVER heard anywhere that CJ has said he want to be a "Buffalo Bill for his entire career" a link would be appreciated. it was a sound bite from an interview on wgr a while ago. it may just have been an athlete giving lip service, but he said something to the effect of wanting to finish his career as a buffalo bill. i am sorry that i have no link to provide for you, maybe someone else heard this and can back me up?

Riveting!!! That's how you see it. I think we're arguing about one half of one of the most dynamic RB duos in the league. Just as the platoon system is designed. Damn lucky to have two very good RBs that attack defenses in entirely different ways. But I know how much pressure Spiller puts on the defense simply by observing the keys on the defensive side of the ball. Feel free to argue it all you want, but he exerts a ton of pressure on the defense, especially on the edges, where it's most vulnerable. Can't wait to see him when others on the offense make a defense pay for that. Haven't had the luxury yet. And as much as you say it's an excuse, he needs to stay healthy to have a chance. GO BILLS!!!
