Does Spiller play Sunday?

[streetkings01]

If he's taken off of IRDR does he get thrown into the rotation this Sunday? Wouldn't make sense to take him off and then keep him inactive for the next 2 weeks.

That's the big question since he's eligible now. I believe he's been practicing the past couple weeks, but I don't know if he's been limited at all. If the shoulders OK I'd like to see him at least get some plays in against Oakland to knock some rust off and get comfortable. It would be really nice to have him as an extra weapon against the Pats.

Will certainly be interesting to see what happens.

Would be great to see him come back to play, unannounced prior, in the NE game and run them into the ground.

Might as well.

I'm as big a critic of CJ as anybody and feel he is way over-rated, but if he's anywhere near healthy the team is at the point where one or two big plays over the next two games could make a huge difference in how the season ends up.

Activate CJ

Deactivate the Gay feller

I thought I heard that Spiller is eligible to play until Week 17.

We know that aint happening.......Marrone loves his kickoff specialist more then players that can contribute on offense!

Spiller already shys away from contact, I don't think he is going to want to test the clavicle. I believe the Bills need to get Bryce Brown more involved in this offense.

Re: Does Spiller play Sunday?

Whatever the case - CJ, Bryce, Boobie - the only way this team gets anywhere is going to be by ground and pound and eating the clock, keeping the D fresh to win games. Orton has proven he can't be better than a .500 career backup, and EJ isn't ready (if ever).

It's this week........Bills have to decide to activate him or end his season.

It's his contract year. If I was him, I'd be salivating at a chance to salvage the season.

He'll return to active roster. Hasn't had full contact -- will happen this week. Doubt he'll play this week.

Re: Does Spiller play Sunday?

i think he plays on sunday.

considering orton basically can only complete 5 yard passes we better pray he plays in the screen check down game we love here in buffalo

Re: Does Spiller play Sunday?

If he's been cleared for full contact, I don't know why he wouldn't play. They desperately need whatever help they can get on offense. Maybe he doesn't resume a significant role this week, but they should be able to at least come up with a few plays for CJ. That might be asking a lot from this staff though.

His legs are fresh and his contract is up, so what do they really have to lose? If he gets through practice OK, I think he plays.

Re: Does Spiller play Sunday?

I think they just said on the local sports that he was going to be activated, but I just caught a snippet passing through.
