As porous as our pathetic run d was last year, im sure evey running back would love to play us twice a year. hope we fix that somehow

Portis is absolutely done, he is no threat

He looked incredible at times last season, especially in the Houston game. Even in his final game against the Titans, he was running well until the re-injury.

He can definitely still run, but unfortunately for him he can't stay healthy. His body isn't breaking down, it's already broken down.

1500 yard bar? Clinton Portis is 29...if his injuries are healed and he gets time on the field I am sure he is capable of giving you 1100 yards and 8TDs. To prove the Redskins wrong he only needs to get more yards and TDs than the Redskins starter. Let's hope Torain stays up.

LOL no way he even sniffs 1000 yards. Nobody is going to make him their featured back.

To prove the Skins wrong, he would need to have a heck of a season. I don't think he has it in him anymore. He's a role player at best now.

I would bank on one of our rookies putting up better numbers.

Bring it on CP.

Rogers sure is burning some bridges eh? He's never been the sharpest tack.

Domino effect with these guys...one after the other they all say the same thing when they leave for whatever the reason.

Well, not all of them.

Rogers isn't even out the door yet and he's popping off. Not smart.

HELUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!

Seriously, both of them, Helu and Royster should do very well for Coach Shanahan. Torain, Keiland and the 2 rookies...this looks like an exciting bunch of RBs.

We know Torain can dominate. Keiland was a monster in the Titans game where he had to be the top guy after CP went down. The rookies are coming into what looks like a reincarnation of Shanahan's "Plug-and-Play RB system", where anyone is an instant 100 yd-game rusher just by stepping onto the field.

Actually I don't think the article was Portis taking a shot at the skins other then he thinks he has more in the tank. What player dosen't get dumped by a team thinking they can still play. He actually seemed to talk as if the skins where on the right track.

You're right Matty, not "all" of them though a few names do readily come to mind that have expressed the desire and we know who they are. I just wonder why some form of revenge has to be their motive as if they were done some form of injustice by the Redskins.

I'm not saying he will get 1100 yards, just that he could. Every backup in the league is one play away from becoming a starter. No one is going to sign Portis as a starter but someone will sign him as a backup. I remember LT a couple of years ago was signed by the Jets as a backup and now he is splitting time with Green.

But that's like saying Mark Brunell could throw for 3500 yards at this stage in his career. If he plays enough to put up those numbers, you're going to lose a lot of games because of all the negatives that come along with the attempts it takes to put up that yardage.
