NEXT!

He can bulldoze 170 pound corners, all you have to do is go low to tackle him, and they will need a crane to get his overweight ass up.

Westbrook has him beat when it comes to receptions, but I don't think that makes him more accomplished as a result.

Yeah that's a fair take. I guess I stand corrected.

Could this become a poll?

The guy said he has based his decision on a Madden game. What a dumbass

Portis is nothing more than a 3rd down back but if Zorn's offense give him the space he can have a good year. He's still not worth the money we paid for him though. I heard Portis is off the juice and has lost some weight to get quicker. Good news to hear, Gibbs tried making him a power back with embarrassing results. Maybe the old man needed new glasses, who in their right minds would try to make a 200lb back a power back?? Did he even watch any tape from Denver on him??

I've always defended your right to say what you think and I have often agreed with some of things you've said but to say Portis is nothing more than a 3rd down back is f'ing asinine dude.

Prove me wrong, you can't. He's an overrated Dave Meggett and nothign more. He's too small, doesn't break any big runs, and his career is going to be over in 2 years due to injury. He can't stay healthy and he's a total me guy. All that and we gave him an insane contract. We should cut him now and go with Betts.

The numbers speak for themselves and the other tangible things he does speak for themselves too. If you can't see quality, you can't be helped.

Westbrook is a better runner and it's not really even close.

Portis is the better pass blocker of the two, but Westbrook isn't chopped liver as a pass blocker.

Since you're talking about small stuff, I thought I'd mention small chicken appetizers.

1 small over stuffer chicken, cooked and deboned
5 burrito sized flour tortilla wraps
1 bottle barbeque sauce of choice
1 bottle blue cheese dressing of choice
1 head of lettuce, shredded
1 tomato, thinly sliced
hot sauce

Pull the chicken into shreds with clean hands and place in a bowl or ziploc bag. Pour 1 bottle of barbeque sauce on top of it. Add ten drops of hotsauce into this and stir.
Heat wraps for ten second in microwave.

Place lettuce on wrap and two tomato slices. Spoon 1/5 of chicken mixture on top of lettuce and tomato. Cover with blue cheese dressing and fold in the two sides.

Fold the unfolded sides so that the two ends meet and tuck one into the other.

Cut in half and enjoy!

It's not even worth it to get into it with him saden. He's never wrong, and he'll be the first to tell you that.

I can't prove you wrong because your argument isn't logical. Even if most of the statements you make are true (which they arent), your conclusion still makes no sense.

This is because you made your conclusion prior to considering any evidence, and you aren't going to win any debates by doing that.

That sounds delicious, bet it looks and tastes great too. But it's a bit off topic here.
