Portis Interview on Fox

[over the mountain]

Portis does not look ready to play a full 60 minutes of football and be the guy to carry this team . . it could be b/c of his injuries, which leads to his lack of practice and game-shape conditioning and the huge injuries to our O line do not help . . .then sprinkle on top alil bit of gibbs saying "our backs are interchangeable" and portis coming into this season saying he has to prove the doubters wrong or he wont be here next year and perhaps just maybe that competitive guy who once wore a heavyweight champ belt around his waist on the sideline in denver isnt so competitive and 110% into it anymore . . . i dont know, but i do know we need him to step up more than ever right now or start giving betts 15-20 carries b/c hes the type of runner that needs to pound the Dline for a few quarters and get warmed up.
