I agree, Hogskin. They need to get Portis outside
before the linebackers get there, and take advantage of the blocking skills of this receiving corps. I'd also like to see him get more involved in the passing game. This guy's too dynamic a player to confine him to three basic running plays. It's time to open up this offense and unleash Portis's full skillset.
