He's older, but hasn't had nearly as many carries & injuries. Also hasn't bulked up like Portis. Betts isn't a short yardage back. As for his speed, I honestly don't know who is faster, do you? Betts was hitting holes as quick a few years ago as Portis was IMO. I know his #s are down the last 2 years & this year, but I attribute that as much to his limited opportunities.
If he has fallen off so much (and I just don't see that in relation to CP, who has looked slower this year) why did the coaching staff praise him this summer & give him the 3rd down job?
