jayp Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 While I'm SURE Hillis can carry the load the rest of the year and lead this team into the playoffs with his shifty running style, there has to be a capable...umm...backup out there to spell Hillis after back to back long runs... Anyone with any thoughts on who they might bring in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronco Billy Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Shifty running style. Hillis is a missile you aim at a hole & hope that it opens by the time he gets there. I wonder what Mike Anderson & Mike Bell are up to...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyjets Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Is Hillis white? Not that that means anything just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTSuper7 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Is Hillis white? Not that that means anything just curious. You couldn't have just googled him to find out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myhousekey Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 (edited) What do we know about Corey Boyd? (recently signed to the practice squad) Edit: I've heard a lot of good things about the kid as far as his play at South Carolina. I think he was suspended at one point though; not sure why.

jayp Posted November 7, 2008 Author Share Posted November 7, 2008 Is Hillis white? Not that that means anything just curious. He is. I believe he got his job through the Rooney rule, where before a team signs a running back, they must have a workout for a white running back first. Unfortunately, that rule does not seem to apply to cornerbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildTurkey Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 They should give Tatum Bell another try, although he carries a lot of baggage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LayLow Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I am staying away from this backfield. DEN will use more 4 wr spread sets from here on out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfish247 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I'll bet we see the second coming of Tinker Bell. That would require an admission that a HC like Shanahan is incapable of making... namely he was wrong about his RB decisions. I highly doubt this happens.

Belushi Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 That would require an admission that a HC like Shanahan is incapable of making... namely he was wrong about his RB decisions. I highly doubt this happens. He got rid of Bell because he sucked. Bell still sucks, but Shanny is desparate. I don't think he'd be admitting he made a mistake. He's had 3 RB's go on IR now. As bad as Bell may be there's just no one left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
