When I think of Spiller, a few things come to mind: 1. Spiller wasn't used properly post-Chan. Even after going to the Saints, a place where it would seem he was set up for success (think Reggie Bush!), he still wasn't able to recreate the success he had with Chan. 2. The waste of a high draft pick on another RB. 3. Undue hate for the guy from fans-not his fault Bill's management took a RB that they didn't need 4. The video of him talking about sponge bob Expand I didn't like the pick. I didn't blame him for it either. I don't like him because he was a bad NFL player.

I have invited you multiple times to prove otherwise. 8 seasons 3451 yards is great to you but to me that's bad. Watching him gain no yardage on almost every play was bad. Never breaking a tackle and getting stuffed at the line was bad. He had great speed but never hit the hole to use it.
frostbitmic Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 Spiller was the best waterbug this team ever had.

He did it in one game, the night game in Buffalo he dominated. But that's it. He never was someone other teamed planned around and was definitely something that we never planned around. He was a joke. He was just a dumbass dude who could run fast and be elusive. Expand Um, he had over 1700 yards from scrimmage in 2012 and 1244 yards rushing. He definitely carried the load that year and was 6th in the league in yards from scrimmage. And again, his productivity per touch was off-the-charts good that season.

Expand He was actually decent the next season (nearly 1000 yards rushing and 4.6 ypa), but the system was a terrible fit for him. I think he basically lost a half a step (lots of small injuries over the years to his legs/ankles), plus he was reportedly dumb. He apparently couldn't absorb the NO offense.
