Where's Portis?
Did I miss something? Why is Betts running?

Portis has 20 yds..................Is he not following the openings of the line or what, unfortunately I'm relying on NFL.com for the game play by play....can't see the game they decided to show Gints/Falcons.........Glad Gints are losing......Anyway, I was wondering the same thing about Portis....maybe someone can give us some insight.

Portis has just been unable to break the initial tackle, like he usually does

Portis has been dancing too much and not just hitting the holes

Portis really didnt have a good game at all today, dropped a few passes, not really any effective runs, but the blocking was pretty poor too.

I don't think there were too many holes for him to hit.

Didn't it seem like Betts was in there a lot on 1st and 2nd down...at least a lot more than usual??? I was wondering if Portis was hurt, or "in the doghouse", but they never mentioned anything.
17 carries for what, 37 yards? That is horrible....especially considering that we were not down by that much and were still in the game until the 4th quarter... |

In fairness to Portis if he could find a hole he's a better man than I and I have the luxury of seeing the whole field in a relaxed setting in my recliner, as well as slow motion replay's, I just don't see any holes PERIOD. Sometimes you watch back's run and you can see he should have zigged instead of zag but I don't see that, could it be that our o-line is just that bad, and incapable of run blocking?

he didn't have many holes to run through, but then he dropped a pass on a screen where he did have some blockers and lots of room..... |
