I don't understand why people always want to subtract plays out, I read an article this morning about how Portis ran 22 times for 46 yards (minus the 38 yard TD run). Why is it ok to analyze a performance by subtracting out big plays?? Why do they count any less?
Rant over.

Agreed. It's like "Apart from the win we lost" which never makes sense to me. That run is part of what Portis does. He may run 10 times for short gains but he always seems to bust a biggie to move up the average.
