Perhaps you could enlighten some of us as to what game in preseason last yr Mason got his chance with the first team offense blocking for him against a first team defense?

As I recall our first team offense only played like 6-8 plays all preseason up untill the last game. Portis playing with the 1st line offense and Betts picking up after untill the 3rd quarter where either Rock would start or Mason got his chance...against 2nd/3rd stringers.

and.....I guess theres's no chance the 2nd/3rd stinger OL missed their blocks or were unable to create holes.

Whats even more AMAZING is the fact that the Skins picked up this crap hole of a runner who could not make it off teams practice squad. One would think that the coach's see exactly what you guys are seeing and would avoid him like the plague for another back who might have the intangables. Camp fodder perhaps, but not needed. We have Rock to run all preseason or Betts if need be to keep Portis healthy for the regular season. Wait, we also picked up two more RB's prior to the draft. There's no reason to keep Mason if he sucks so much.
