lol..Good point, but...
Portis was hurt (and still may not last the season). Betts had shots in the Minn and Dallas games and didn't show much (though the o-line wasn't doing much, so it's hard to say). But Betts has been hurt a lot. He doesn't look to be durable enough to be an every down, 16 game back. The skins were facing the prospect of losing their run attack, so they made a move. So I think the move was sound. Duckett is a good player.
As for not using him, that's another story. He can't be WORSE than the other backs at thrid and short. If he's active, put him in! (Bet we'll see him soon--probably this week, IMO.)
