Since you are such a Nostradamus why don't you just tell us how it will play out each week and save us the trouble. TIATold you guys a month ago (game against the NYJ) he didn't look special - and drew a bunch of criticism for it. And here we are and we all see he's not special.
Actually that was exactly the only reason, you keep telling yourself that he was benched.Keep telling yourself that's the only reason. You can start him again in 3 weeks.he got hurt numbnutsTold you guys a month ago (game against the NYJ) he didn't look special - and drew a bunch of criticism for it.

You need to reread abouit a month's worht of posts about how awesome he is and that Ball's time is over.Actually that was exactly the only reason, you keep telling yourself that he was benched.Keep telling yourself that's the only reason.

Three weeks from now isn't relevant to anything you have said, there was always the possibility this would devolve into a RBBC the Hillman injury only increases that possibility. CJ will have three games and Ball two games to make the case for being the lead back.
No, I don't. He was better then Ball by any and all measures (that you choose to ignore for some reason...fishing perhaps?) but that didn't make him a lock to hold onto the job (even though every report suggested that he would be the starter and Ball himself said that he should). The injury opened the door again creating doubt at the position, what happens during those two weeks will determine what role Hillman will have when he returns. But don't delude yourself into thinking that if he wasn't injured that the door would have been opened at all, any one of the Denver backs would have looked dominant against the Raiders on Sunday.You need to reread abouit a month's worht of posts about how awesome he is and that Ball's time is over.Actually that was exactly the only reason, you keep telling yourself that he was benched.Keep telling yourself that's the only reason.

You're funny cause you are advocating that he is the best RB - and now you are stating that an injury is causing him to lose his job. He just drew a ton of criticism from Denver coaching for his play in NE. And he was off to more of the same last week. If he was all that great, he wouldn;t be losing his job due to an injury.
Wrong again. You are delusional because you believe people were saying that Hillman is great when the truth is that all most people were saying is that he performed better then Ball and earned a shot at keeping the starting job when Ball came back. I don't think anyone was putting him in the class of great RBs in the NFL, just performing better then Ball. The news out of Denver supported that and Ball himself agreed.
I'd like to see him there for a while so we could watch him and Antonio Smith tangle twice a season
This is getting no where - I am not even sure what you are arguing. I said he didn't look speclal in the NYJ game and drew criticism for it - from people who didn't watch the game. You stated he is only losing his job due to an injury. If he should be the starter - as you are stating - then his job shouldn't be in jeopardy because of an injury. The most talented back doesn't lose their start due to injury
It's a mystery.
Because in his career so far, he's never had more than 2 carries in a regular season game without averaging at least 5 ypc.
Agreed. We're talking about a grand total of 37 career carries. The coaching staff had him as the #4 or #3 RB on the roster, that generally doesn't happen to the best RB on the team.
I agree. But it's why people believe it. And he certainly didn't hurt that perception last week.iamkoza said:
Agreed, either flop or injury. Of course Juwan Thompson is still there as well.
On to the memories.
} Ok my bad, carry on.
2-6 is a big spread but with the upper end in mind and CJ and Montee in the mix I wouldn't go out of my way to keep him rostered if someone else intriguing was out there.
