Portis did have a tremendous all around game last night, but I can't say that I'm all that surprised about it. Washington needed the running game, and Portis delivered. He does that, more often than not.
I am a bit surprised by Heyer's performance though. I've been a big fan of Heyer since week one, but he was basically lights out on Strahan last night during running and passing downs. I wouldn't have predicted that he could keep Strahan out of the backfield all night. He could still use a bit of polish, but he's one of the few gems that Washington has found late in the draft.
