Hillman has looked better in his 2 starts than Ball has all season. At best, we could be looking at a time share upon his return if he doesn't take the job outright.

I think Ball owners should be way past the panic stage by now, and should be on to acceptance.

I won't drop him, but he is no longer in my long term plans.

I traded for Lamar Miller.

I have both and that irritates me more. Who are you going to start when Ball returns. They're irrelevant when both are playing...only good when one is hurt and the other gets 90% of the work.

I have both Ball and Hillman. At worst it's a time share when he gets back, and at best, hillman takes the job outright. I'd rather have one useless player than two useless players.

On second thought, maybe hillman would be a sell high candidate if I can get anyone to bite. I'll probably go for it and see what happens.

Would love to see the numbers on personnel packages from the first four games compared to the last two.

Hillman had a good game but that was a depleted san fran defense that was getting gashed through the air... not sure if there is anything to take away from Hillman's performance other than he really took advantage of the situation.

I love how I became the Ball poster boy

I obviously thought he'd be better, but I said numerous times and cited past stats showing that it was more about the rb playing in offense than it was about ball. Even so, ball was dealt a shitty hand early on. Den was in close games and he wasn't fed in optimal situations

Watch, one or two shitty Hillman games and ball will be right back in the picture
