JC- 10th overall QB rating
CP- 13th overall rushing yards with 3.9 average
Randle El- 8th in receiving yards.
Not to rain on your parade there, but should keep in mind that there are still 2 games yet to be played in week 1.

Brady playing against Buffalo and Rivers playing against Oakland. You can expect JC to drop at least 2 spots.

And then there is Tomlinson, Taylor, McFadden and Maroney still needing to play.

Portis averaged 3.9 ypc on 16 attempts. That is very average and well below what we normally see CP attaining.

When Washington came out of the gates at 6-2 last season, Portis was getting well over 20 touches per game, which helped Campbell out tremendously. 16 attempts in a game for a RB like Clinton Portis is unacceptable.
