Portis still needs to beef up for the kind of running he has to do with our division. He hits a hole and gets a lot of attention, as in the Dallarse game.
Having Betts come in for a few downs help too, the additional meat will allow Portis to be more durable throughout the season.
Betts was a non factor after he got separated from the ball.

our mistake is putting old man Glenn on your fastest receiver and putting the fastest guy Newman in the slot. I think that when we stopped blitzing Brunell we just stopped hitting you guys in the mouth. A four man line with no lb or safety coming in to blitz on a day as hot as that is never getting to the QB.
how can you forget old man Roy Williams? and even though you didn't blitz, you still got plenty of pressure to our eternal consternation.

Matty, Thanks for the Closet skins fan line over the Star. But it is stuck between a graet helmet and the % superbowls that we have won so it looks out of place.
Portis will be fine in the long run and I still expect him to have a big year with 1500 yds or so.
Dallas did a good job at taking away the run and we got away from the running game when we got down.

Williams has NEVER been any good in coverage, and had Glenn not gone for the int on the last pass maybe Moss doesn't walk in untouched. Besides in cover 2 the safety is supposed Help overtop - between the LOS and the receiver. Glenn gambled and we lost.

yeah that was my point, 2 old men don't equal a Moss. and Lefty (Brunell) said you kept playing in quarters, with both those DBs way back to prevent that kind of stuff, even though it didn't work the first time.
Agreed that Williams was the one to blame for blowing that coverage.
It's inexcusable to let a WR get on top of you like that in the cover 2, and so easily at that.
Glenn made a nice attempt to help out but that was all on Williams. He got owned.

you better do something about that o-line. Ware started to get some push back and pressure on Brunell while working on Samuels.

IT was Glenns' fault. And the coaches. Should Williams be out there on fourth and long? And even if the reception is made the CB should have the tackle.
Most of the time Samuels rode him right by Brunell. I thought Samuels did a great job actually.
