As long as we keep running the ball, we will be ok. Just the fact that we run is good enough because it makes defenses have to respect that part of the offense instead of dropping 7 or 8 guys in coverage. I forgot where I read this stat but we actually run up the middle on a fewer percentage of our running plays than anyone else in the league (i think its 38%).

Im concerned with the running game as well and i to think they should have running plays to portis strengths which is to the outside...it's obvious becuase he can pick his holes whereas you run him in the middle and hes got dancy feets and i hate that type of running. this is what i think. I think if they're going to run up the middle so much keep betts in the game because he's a better inside runner then portis. They go out an spend all this money for portis and dont use him to his strenghs and that's silly as hell and if we can't run the ball there's no shot of going far in the playoff..... point blank period.
