Will Portis Be the Greatest Ever?

Some interesting Portis vs. Emmitt stats here (http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/5218420)

Number of rushing yards gained by Washington running back Clinton Portis after his first four NFL seasons: 5,930 yards.

Number of rushing yards gained by the NFL's all-time leading rusher Emmitt Smith after his first four NFL seasons: 5,699 yards.

Number of more carries that Portis has than Smith at this point of their careers: None. Despite having 231 more career yards after four seasons, Portis has four less carries.

Kinda early to speculate but after this season and the way the O-line played it wouldn;t surprise me although it would take a long time.

portis will have to play a long time, so it is hard to speculate. he may not want to play until he is 35 or whatever emmit was

Only time will tell...

All I have to say is he'll be really up there once he retires...in 6 more years he could have 15 thousand yards. Also note that he has 41 more yards than LaDainian Tomlinson has in his first 4 season.

CHECK OUT OUR INJURY REPORT!!!!

GUESS WHO IS PROBABLE. NO guess. NO NO NO GUESS. yup thats right SPRINGS!!!

Yea we still have a long time to go until we find out, but those are some interesting stats.

Also, barring any kind of serious injury to Portis I do think that he can accomplish this feat!!!

its not all up to portis. Dallas was Winning for most of Emmitts run and they had an awesome Oline.

The only way portis or any other back is going to break that record is by being on "dynasty".

I would have to disagree with that, I mean look at Larry Johnson for KC, he only started 9 games this year and he amassed over 1700 yards. I do think that KC has one of the best O-lines but by no means are they a "dynasty." I think that Portis has a leigit shot at the record along with LT and Johnson. And none of them are on what anyone would call a "dynasty" team.
