that fumble lies more on Campbell then Portis. its his responsibility to make sure the hand-off hits portis in the chest

Nothing Campbell could do different there. Portis shouldn't have been reaching for the ball. He should have let Campbell put it in the breadbasket. Instead he reached for the ball because he was too anxious to hit the hole and it dropped.

There is some responsibility on Campbell, but the majority is on Portis. The ball hit his arm. This is RB 101, you always have your arms opened where you receive the ball. This is practiced everyday and is inexcusable for a $ 5M + per year RB.
