West had a rough go of it for ONE YEAR and he's still a "young" 26.
In less than two full seasons, West has 5 rushing TD's and 3 receiving TD's.
Since being drafted in 2010, Spiller has 12 rushing TD's and 9 receiving TD's.
I don't get the love.

I don't think it is as much a "love" for Spiller as it is more of being underwhelmed by West. Age would be more of a consideration if we were telling one of these guys to be the feature back, but that is not the case. There are as many shitty young players in the NFL as there are old players in the NFL. You arguably roll the dice on Spiller with regards to his health, but he has looked good thus far in preseason and is obviously a professional that brings a well-rounded game to the table.
