Let's not over-react - Portis is a damn-fine goal line back.

It was just one bad series - where most of the blame should be on the o-line. Sellers and/or Duckett wouldn't have had much more luck in those scenarios.

I will pose the question, though - why don't we ever have Portis jump to the outside in goal line situations? Priest Holmes made a career of this - and if they're stacked up in the middle - Portis definitely has the speed to beat them to the outside...

As far as Duckett, I'm with Matty - it's not going to happen this year - if we stop talking about it maybe, just maybe we can forget about what we gave up for nothing...
