Portis/game

Broken Ankle, most likley dont for season. (I say most likley cause if we were to go on deep in the playoffs or somthing, he could be back i'd imagine.)


Thomas broke his right fibula (not his ankle) and is scheduled to have surgery today. Bubba Tyer says he's done for the season.

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.

I think that's a great coaching call. The perfect game plan is useless if our guys are too tired to make it work. Plus, with the short week, we'll need it!

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.

Interesting because on Friday night's Redskins Report Riggo said nobody does less with 100 yard games than CP. Riggo said CP gets 10 yards here, 5 yards there, and in the end it adds up to a bunch of yards but no points. It sounded to me like Riggo is not too high on CP as an impact RB.

can we please put to rest all those stupid portis is over rated threads?he is definitley a true redskin,all guts and glory
No. CP should have run for 200 no 300 yards in each of these games. He is terrible and shouldn't be allowed in the NFL anymore because he can't do anything right ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give me some Reggie Brooks all day long!!

100 yards is a 100 yards and whether it leads directly to points or not does not diminish the fact that it opens up the playbook and indirectly leads to points. I like Riggo but something tells me he isn't always the most objective guy to talk to about Redskins running backs.

Riggo seems to have an axe to grind against the Skins for some odd reason. Either that or he just gets off on being overly critical of the team, maybe he thinks that makes him edgy, or maybe the guy really is just nuts. Either way I don't take what he takes very seriously. You can only take the negative viewpoint so far, eventually it gets tired and old.

That's complete BS analysis by Riggins. CP has only 66% of our rushing TDs. Show me another team with a 1300 yard rusher who accounts for such a small percentage of his team's rushing TDs. Point is, Betts, Sellers, and Rock all get goal line touches. That doesn't suggest inefficiency to me - that suggests CP is a team player. Do you think Shawn Alexander would stand for Maurice Morris getting 8 rushing TDs this year? Absolutely not.

Very good point.

Yeah, Riggins analysis for the past several years has soured my view of him a bit. Michael Irvin gives Washington more praise than he does. He's probably just bitter that, yet again, another Redskins back is going to surpass his single season yargade mark.

Exactly - I loved that CP was out on the field high-fiving Betts after his TD - great team play.
