    Sit Spiller ??

    Its been painfully obvious his ankle is still sore and hurting. His speed is not the same and he has trouble making cuts.

    Is it time for CJ to sit out a game and let the ankle heal completely ?? Kudos to him for trying to play through this, but it seems in the long run it could end up being worse. Besides that Fred Jackson guy is kinda good and even Choice can do well.


    Thoughts ??

    Im honestly fine with sitting him. He needs to get healthy before he can be the factor we need him to be.

    Why risk further damage?

    If it needs to heal, give him a rest. I don't think it will matter in this game anyway.

    CJ says he feels 10 times better now than he did before the Fins game & he wants to play.

    He honestly should have probably been sat during the Cleveland game. He might be 100% now or close if he had.

    We're more than likely going to lose this game, so why have him do further damage?

    It doesn't really matter though because there's no way he sits.

    Re: Sit Spiller ??

    depends on what he looks like in practice. it's been his ankle and then in miami it looked like he pulled up due to a calf.

    i'd dress him and do as they did in miami. give it to fred and tashard. and play CJ if he's hurt or if he really did look ok during the warm ups.

    Yep. They are called "contract incentive clauses" or some such. Starts, downs, yards, you name it.

    Good to see you again Vic!

    And good to see that we're still on the same page. I said that he should sit in another thread.

    He's just note effective at the moment.

    I would think they would be able to roll with Jackson, Choice, and Summers for one week.

    Re: Sit Spiller ??

    I've been advocating this for the past two weeks. Had we sat him a week or even two if needed then he would be 100% healthy right now. Spiller wouldn't have changed the outcome in the Dolphins game one bit either. He only carried the ball 6 times.

    I would love to see him sit this week and come back close to 100% for the Chiefs game..
