im trying to point out that even tho his numbers are down this season, calling for his head is jumping the gun......especially considering his history with this franchise and his amazing ability to carry the team on his back almost single handidly

is there another back in the league that is asked to do as much as portis? maybe, but none of them do it as well as portis

you guys definitly know more about the redskins than i do......but i have watched games and i have watched portis and i didnt notice anything significantly worse than what he has shown the past few seasons

one thing that you cant ignore is the dropoff in carries per game.....if he would get his normal 6 more carries per game he would have nearly 700 yards already this season and would be right where you guys expect him to be

Dude you had best be Clinton Portis. Because if you're not, you need to remove your lips from his
