Week 11, 2011.
The NFL's leading rusher Fred Jackson goes down for the season. Most people were 50/50 on who to pick up as the new Bills RB. Many people said Johnny White or Tashard Choice would take over because they have looked better through out the year and are more suited for the every down RB role. Young and talented CJ Spiller had been a disappointment. Spiller had only rushed 6 times in the previous 4 games. He and White were essentially splitting the backup reps. Spiller eventually got the job and excelled. After a few up and down games, when it was money time he delivered.
Standard scoring:
Week 15- 28.7pts
Week 16- 19.8pts
Very similar to this year. At the time I picked up White and Spiller to see how it would play out. This year I picked up Hightower and Spiller to see how it will play out. Not saying an older Spiller can do it again, but the situations are very similar. Spiller was in a haze and labeled a bust until he was given the number one job.
Here's hoping for another Spiller run.
