    X's official "I Was Wrong" admission

    Yes, many of you have haunted me about calling out Freddy. He did look slow last year and througout the pre-season.

    But I will say unequivocally that I am so glad he's still a Bill!

    The guy plays hurt, has stepped up and been huge in these games while Spiller is banged up. He's done his job and more.

    I couldn't be more pleased with what he has done on the field. I didn't expect it based on what I thought I saw. But, I was wrong and I will admit it.

    Yes, I still want a young, big, bruising RB as our #3 initially. But, I'm really glad Freddy is still here.

    Freddy is clearly in the twilight of his career, but he still plays very smart. You're right to be looking toward acquiring a younger big back. There's a guy on the PS now that might fit the bill.
    I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

    I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

      Now I'll have to make an "I was right" thread.

        Fred is a gamer.

          I was wrong about the defense wilting in the second half today. They came up big in the fourth quarter, when it was needed most.

            You can. Of course that will cause a whole slew of folks to point out where you were wrong in the past...

                  I don't have the data to back it at this point so I will just state a belief...

                  CJ Spiller is a top 5 RB in this league.

                    He's at best 5th behind Peterson, Lynch, McCoy, and Charles. And I'd need something compelling to put him over Foster, Gore, and Morris.

                      I expect this response. No issue with it actually.

                      That's why I used the term "belief"
