Misleading quote about Spiller


Recommended Posts

Was reading a Yahoo article about how CJ Spiller is going to be this great steal, and who knows maybe he will be, but one quote thought was very laughable, it stated:

 

The first time he experienced a production dip happened in his first season under Doug Marrone

 

Now that is an absolutely true statement, however he's only played four seasons and Marrone was there for two, so that leaves two seasons, and his rookie year didn't do a whole lot. So basically the following could have also been written and stated exactly the same but maybe gave more information and shead more light on his overall career:

 

He's had one very good season over his four year career (and if you want to add), but regressed the past two seasons under the new coach Doug Marrone

 

As they like to often say, figures don't lie, but liars figure!

It was actually 5 seasons with the Bills if you can believe it.

True, but that part to me that's somewhat misleading is it tends to imply he had a long productive career prior to Marrone when in reality, he had one very good season.

 

 

I get that the statement could be wrong but Occum's Shaver would seem to indicate Greggo Marrone had a lot to do with it. Everyone on offense sucked under him.
