Re: Running Game Scheme Question under Coach Zorn

1.) I was wondering though - is this in the best interest of Clinton Portis? It seems that Portis thrived under the Denver Broncos spread offense and I would think that a running attack that uses more of a spread would really improve his numbers.

2.) How different is the West Cost Offense than the Broncos spread offense? I just wanted to see if anyone could provide clarification as far as if these schemes are vastly different and if they are not and if the Skins are going to put in a new playbook why not adjust the running game to Portis's strengths?
Don't know if this is related or not... but during the press conference Zorn commented on the fact that he'll work off of what a lot of the coaches already in place.

He alluded to the possibility of using the status-quo running game as a foundation, citing the fact that Bugel knows how to gear a team towards running the ball.
