C.J. Spiller undoubtedly saved the day for the New Orleans Saints with his 80-yard TD reception in overtime to shock the Dallas Cowboys 26-20 at home Sunday night.

Coach Sean Payton said he strived to increase Spiller's involvement within the offense. Technically, Payton did just that. Spiller played 21 offensive snaps in the win over Dallas in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, which translated into 29 percent of the offensive snaps.

The 21 snaps are up from Week 3 where he only 14 snaps (20 percent) in the loss at Carolina. The Saints tailback took seven snaps in his Saints debut against Tampa Bay two weeks ago.

Meanwhile, wide receiver Brandon Coleman continues to watch his participation decrease finding only 19 snaps (26 percent) in Sunday night's win. Willie Snead received the second most offensive snaps at wide receiver at 48.

Defensively, linebacker Hau'oli Kikaha played in fewer snaps than normal with 42 (69 percent. Kikaha led the Saints with eight total tackles and one sack.

Defensive linemen Bobby Richardson (38 snaps, 62 percent) and Tyeler Davison (33, 54) also saw an uptick in playing time with Akiem Hicks now in New England.
