[quote]- Gibbs didn't run outside ONCE it seemed, and you could see Portis's frustration on the side line. a sweep or a toss would have gotten us a sure score when we were on the 1yd line, Portis can outrun any linebacker. i saw a step back in how Gibbs plays Portis and (consequentially?) how Portis himself played. i don't get it, after Gibbs learned so much in the past couple weeks, he goes back to the tough plays inside and with pulls where Portis is deep in traffic and used to fumble. lo and behold 3.5 ypc and a fumble..[/quote]

AMEN, but he did go outside once and lost like 10 yards. He keeps going with failing plays up the middle, shoulda eaten the one to the outside.
