Give full props to Freddy for putting the contract stuff to the side at least while he's playing the games. He's been a beast this year for sure.

Good call here.

...and should I keep my Lynch/Jackson backfield intact for 2012??

Is this the new Deangelo/JStewart situation for 2012?
Touchdown There

It is actually Cam/Deangelo/JStewart/Tolbert splitting rushing yards. Way worse than Buffalo (in terms of fantasy points).I think your point is that CJ Spiller showed enough at the end of last year that he should command a greater role this year. The GM has promised Fred Jackson a new contract before camp. If the Bills had plans on letting CJ Spiller take the primary role, why give Fred Jackson a sizeable contract? More weirdness in Buffalo.

Exactly. I tend to believe most stud RBs will not be able to be predicted prior to the season and will come from necessity after an injury to the partner back(s).
Not the traditional handcuff but after Rice, McCoy, Foster, Steven Jackson, Lynch and Mathews I would want both Jackson and Spiller pair. Murray/Jones, Forte/Bush, Gore/Hunter, etc are all unpredictable.
If the Ravens draft a talented RB, or Dion Lewis or Ben Tate force a time share, there may never be a planned stud RB again.

A new contract <> a sizable contract.Spiller will gain a greater role in the offense as the year goes on and will be the undisputed feature back in 2013.It is actually Cam/Deangelo/JStewart/Tolbert splitting rushing yards.
