I just wanted to say this is the type of game I've been waiting for for many years. All around it was a good game. I don't know if anyone else noticed but we ran Portis to his style of running alot more today
go skinssssssssss!!!

Definitely agree. We had a lot of toss plays and outside runs today. But I think that Portis can run up the gut just as well too. People don't notice how physical he is and I think he really is one of the top all around backs in the NFL.

Absolutely! He looked a little banged up, though. Hopefully he'll be at 100% for next weekend, 'cause we'll need him (especially if Thomas is out).
i heard joe bugel on the redskins post game telling b. mitchell that gibbs was giving all the players monday and tuesday off, so hopefully that will help out with the players resting and healing up.

actually alot of those plays were old school Gibbs Counter-Treys. it's just looks different when Portis runs it :)
everyone hear? Portis likes running behind Sellers. nothing but good things happen when he's in formation. no more singleback!

Portis is a gamer, I don't understand how you just can't love the guy.

And I loved them showing all his crazy Thursday outfits. The guy is a trip. But he's got heart--after that (un-flagged!) horsecollar crap that nearly broke his collarbone, he came back, and lowered his shoulder on lots of plays. That's leadership.
oh, BTW--Sellars had a great game, lead blocking, specials, and the TD.

portis is definately not overrated, if anything i think he is underrated. He is put into a role that does not suite him that well(power back), and he has handled it quite well, although we did get him to the outside alot this game. Sure he does not get as many touchdowns as we all want him to, but when he runs the ball well, the Redskins tend to win.

I love him! Hell, if I were a chick I'd...well, nevermind.
Not to repeat my other post, but I can't help but gush about what an incredible team player Portis is - he works as hard without the ball as he does with it. That kind of team play and work ethic is (hopefully) contagious and what really seperates a good team from a bad one.
For anyone who still hates on CP, I say you just don't appreciate football, because CP is everything you could want in a football player.
