Clinton Portis Week 1 Injury watch

Constantly we hear about -Is there more to Portis' injury. Careful thought and inside word is that the arrival of TJ will be permanent and that CP will be dealt after the season. Does anyone think speaking out about Gibbs or confronting the media is tolerated in this club? I kid you not this wound will not heal next year be ready for something totally different.

What inside word are you talking about?

hope so, picked him as my r.b. today. portis, cooley, and the skins d'. skins represent

how'd you pull that one off? I think having portis in the backfield sept 11 with be huge emotional boost for this. Can we say he is our franchise player?

I just want the press conference!

I’m not sure what to think, Joseph White of AP reported…(posted Sept. 2)

Gibbs said RB Clinton Portis (shoulder) and CB Shawn Springs (abdomen) are the only players whose availability is in serious doubt for the opener. "Most of the other guys are ready to roll," Gibbs said

I hope he is ready, but if not 100% let him sit. No need to risk further injury. I think we can beat the Vikes with Betts and Duckett.

I don't see how Portis couldn't be ready by now.

I am gonna have to strongly disagree with you. There is a huge difference between what Clinton and LaVar are doing/did, and I think that is an appropiate comparision to illustrate how what you are saying, will never happen.

They are/were franchise players, both got hurt, and both complained to the media. So on paper, this looks like the same deal, and therefore Portis would be off the team too, right? Wrong. Portis has no problem with the coaching staff, and even though he said something about playing, it was due to frustration of his injury, shit I would too. If you were a superstar, and you got hurt in a meaningless game, you would be pissed, but you would be too scared to speak your mind, well Portis is not scared. Obviously Portis knows he was gonna play, and if didn't get hurt it is no big deal, but that was emotion you all heard. The coaches have no problem with that at all, and we need him to win. We did not NEED LaVar to win, that is the main difference, and that is why Portis won't be traded.

It is also because his injury really is not that serve. I compared his injury to Palmer's in another thread, and most people are not worried about Palmer, they think his knee will hold up instead of Portis's shoulder? Obviously Palmer is much more likely to get hurt, but people think Portis is done, and Palmer is gonna be the MVP.

My point is that we need Portis to win, and his injury is not that bad, therefore he is staying lol. I can not believe I am actually arguing, I really do not know how one can think he will be gone. If Portis is benched, we do not need him to win, then we can talk about this(which won't happen), otherwise this really cannot be a legit arguement.

I was at the guy's house when he picked up over stuffed chairs OVER HIS HEAD. There is nothing "more" to the injury. I aint no doctor but if you have a shoulder injury that is serious then I am pretty sure you aren't picking up 100 Lb chairs over your head.
