Questions :

  • Where was CJ Spiller on 3rd down? He was on the bench EVERYTIME.
  • Was he injured? Nope. He didn't show up at all on the injury report.
  • Was he "throwing up"? I didn't notice that.
  • Is he one of our top-5 players skill players on offense, the ones who will play "a whole bunch"? I guess not.
  • Is EJ a reliable 3rd down player? coming off injury? in his rookie season? Ask Hackett/Marrone.
