Spiller

Somebody should have jammed their fingers down Spillers throat to make him throw up because Fred was much more effective.

Re: Spiller

Freddie should of played the 2nd half. Go with the guy that's producing. Not pleased with Marone.

Re: Spiller

Freddie is a player. I like how people all but gave up on him. Clearly, his teammates didn't. You see the C on his chest. There is a reason, and that reason is the guy is all ****ing guts. He has never been the fastest guy in town, just intuitive and consistent.

We have a little red Corvette, and we have an old Buick LeSabre (French for the saber) with a 3.8 engine in it. The Corvette is fun, but there isn't any trunk room...we had an offense to haul around today, and should have taken the Buick.

Re: Spiller

I've never been sure he's meant to be a workhorse back anyway. Just needed a lot more touches.

Re: Spiller

To me it seemed like too many of Spiller's carries had him running between the tackles... he's just not that type of back.

Oh, I'm sorry...I thought this was a fill-in-the-blank thread.

Re: Spiller

Does anyone recall him takng a huge shot early in the game when he lowered his head and called over to the sidelines to be taken out? Do you??? I think he got his bell rang and wasn't the same even after the fumble. Plus we will see a different offensive look next week and as they said in training camp that they gameplan based on opp every week for what type of off looks they are going to run. So I will hold them to it and see if it looks a bit diff which it should.

Re: Spiller

What do you want him to do when the defense loads the box and he's looking at an 8 man front. Fred was most effective after EJ hit some throws down the field that led to the D sitting back some.

CJ will be fine, but this was not a good game from him.

Re: Spiller

I agree, DB.

Clearly it was BB's gameplan to stop him, which they did.

I believe he is going to have more 150 yard days than not.

Re: Spiller

It was obvious that the Pats were keying on Spiller, Coach Sal said that he and Mark Kelso who were in the box could see/hear that the Pats defensive game plan was to stop Spiller and make Manuel try and beat them. If a good defense is keyed to stopping a back, they can do it. Adrian Peterson's first run went for 78 yards yesterday, his next 17 carries went for 15 yards.
There's nothing wrong with Spiller, the Pats defense did a great job of stopping him. Jackson might have had better success because the Pats defense may also have been thinking pass because of Jackson's pass blocking skill. Also I think Jackson is a little better at finding the smallest of holes than Spiller is.

Re: Spiller

Spiller plays best in open space. There wasn't space because we weren't hitting deep balls enough to open up the short to middle lanes.
