Ok, I know Portis' stats weren't exactly stellar last night, but they weren't horrible either. What I LOVE about this guy is how he works so hard to help the team no matter what his role. He had one fantastic block after another, working his ass off to protect Brunell.

While it sucked that Brunell fumbled, it was Portis' awareness and speed - he looks back, sees Brunell get hit and takes off on a dead sprint for the ball, hauling down the Eagle who recovered it who would have made a sure touchdown were it not for Portis' tackle.

Just an all around fantastic player and a great addition to the team.
