Do you remember when D.hall Intercepted that pass a few weeks ago and returns it to the 1 yardline and CP comes in and jumps over the pile for a 1 yard TD, then he is on the side on the side line with an oxygen mask on he is just to much drama nowadays.

Re: Portis to see concussion specialist
I remember during the Spurrier years when Betts used to be on his phone or even dose off during team meetings.
But as an Iowa fan, I've always rooted for him and he seems to have matured. But both he and Portis don't have much left in the tank, in my opinion.

Re: Portis to see concussion specialist
Really, SS? Ladel Betts may be up there in age but he doesn't have the same wear and tear as Portis does. I can see Betts as a 1,000 yard rusher over the next 3 seasons if given the opportunity.

Re: Portis to see concussion specialist
Washington Redskins fullback Mike Sellers' take: "We ain't no snitches over here! ... That is not happening."
that is sellars reaction to the league asking players to notify medical staff if they notice a teammate with concussion symtoms. i do not really like goodell, but i don't understand why anyone would be opposed to not getting long term brain damage. i understand players want to play, but do they not want a f-in brain when it's all said and done? i hope portis stays out until he has FULLY recovered and samuels never takes another snap heres the article, sellars comment is midway through Nfl Union Pans Reporting On Teammates -- FanHouse

Riggo was synonymous was the oxygen mask on the sidelines

Re: Portis to see concussion specialist
I mean why take the risk? In senseless to rush back when there's a possibility of brain damage.
...I'd like to think Betts has a lot left to offer. I understand he's not football spring chicken, but the dude has very very carries/miles on him. I tend to think it's all up to his discipline. A superior diet, workout regimen will extend to high level of performance. Personally I would like to see Betts have a strong finish to his career in DC.

Re: Portis to see concussion specialist
according to zorn's press conference portis is out against the eagles next weekend, and possibly further, i wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't come back at all

Re: Portis to see concussion specialist
Oh brother. He's one of a handful of backs who still get almost all of their team's carries. There are dozens of much cheaper backs who could have racked up 1500 yards if they got the 342 carries Portis got. Most teams are smart enough to split the carries among 2 or 3 backs. We've seen Betts and Cartwright be productive, but our stupid coaching staff froze them both out, so Portis could hog all the carries. What a waste.
