can we please fact check before saying ridiculous things?

and portis has had a far bigger impact than gardner... gardner is a good WR, but part of one of the worst passing attacks in the entire league right now, and a passing attack that no one respects... no way that deserves an MVP... portis has been throwing blocks, catching passes and running through stacked boxes with and without help.. and i don't know wtf you're talking about as far as production... gardner has 389 yards and one incomplete pass... portis has 803 yards...
Who touches the ball more? Who has to rely on an incompetent QB to get him the ball, I want to know what Portis has done thus far that any other RB couldn't have done? Gardner comparativly as a WR has done far more than Portis to impact games, unless you want to count Portis's fumbles, 5td's for Gardner 2 for Portis, Gardner has made all the big play's for us this year which isn't saying much but it's been better than Portis, I don't want to hear that Potis is a warrior because he keep's running into a stacked line, he isn't getting through them, any back can do that, he's had 2 100yd games out of 7, he has 2 rushing TD's worst in the NFL amoung full time starters, bottom line who has been the go to guy when the game is on the line? Gardner, he almost single handily beat dallas, and he almost did it again yesterday, you can talk about talent all you want, Gardner is the one producing, and he is up against just as much of a stacked deck as Portis, Portis has no where to run, Gardner has no one to throw him the ball, and yet he's managed to outplay Portis, what happened to all the Barry Sander's comparison's I was hearing a few week's ago, when did Sander's ever need blocking, why can't Portis make something out of nothing? Gardner has made catches when they weren't there, catches that most reciever's only dream of catching, If Portis is everything everyone say's he is, he should be doing far better than he's doing now, I like Portis but right now regardless of the reason he has not impacted games like Gardner has, and I was Gardner's biggest detracter.

I guess Gardner doesn't block, and if Portis is blocking so well how come so many here keep saying Brunell protection is below average?
