You do realize that before stats gets logged, there's talent to be had? If we were to take your ridiculous premise to the extreme, everyone without a consistent stat line sucks and everyone with stats are good, even the retired Jerry Rice. Larry Johnson>Jamaal Charles? In your world, yes.
Torain broke some good runs and showed good vision. Plus, Portis was pulled for him by Shanahan. They may have blamed it on the injury, but knowing Portis, you know that he wasn't going to take this lightly. So hell yeah, Torain pushed him.
Oh, and for those 40 carries, he's averaging 4.6 yards a pop.
