in game 1 he was running out the clock those last 8 or so snaps, and since we don't have a huge passing game right now everyone's bringing 8-9 into the box, and with an O-line that isn't run blocking as well as it could right now...
his numbers are fine, but until we get a passing game going, it'll be tougher, but even with stacked boxes he got 148 yards in a game.
ricky williams had the same problem, everyone stacked against him and his ypc went down, that's life... if you think champ/trung is better than springs/portis though, you're completely insane
trung was next to worthless, the step from champ to springs isn't as big as portis to trung, not even close.
that analysis is just a failure to see the big picture and getting too focused on numbers... portis will put up many more points than champ would prevent, and trung would not have been worth anything in a run heavy offense... not to mention talk about how portis isn't what you want in an RB coming from a fan of the boys (who start freaking eddie george) doesn't really mean much to me
and you forgot to add in his pass plays i believe, as well as the runs that were touchdowns (if a 1 yarder is a TD, then you can't really do much better and those plays need to be marked...)
