postgame comments from Portis

What do you guys make of Portis's postgame comments?

He was probably just frustrated over the situation, but I'm sure his comment about being injured in a game he had no business playing in will rub some fans the wrong way.

i didnt want him playing in it anyway...he's right

Any injury could happen at any time. I mean he could get hurt during practice. Does that mean he shouldn't practice either? That said, I think he was only going to play that series anyway

I think he's just understandably frustrated. He'll probably sit out the rest of the season and be ready for week one

Well i thought it came from frustration mostly, but if i was the coach i'dve played him for a series simply because he needs to start getting back into the rythm of playing football again.

It won't rub me the wrong way. What does he need to prove in the preseason?

he looked as genuinely upset as i've ever seen him. very troubling.

he can't help but compete, and he knows it. the coaches should have too.

I sympathise with what he is saying but unless he is advocating that all the starters shouldn't be playing he needs to shut up. Besides, I am sure he wasn't going to play more than two series anyways. Also, was there really a need for him to pounce like a cat?

Injuries are part of the game and players need to play in these games even if little to get all their gears in shape. As I see it if you don't play in pre-season your gears won't be broken-in so to speak and in all likelihood you're probably going to get hurt in the first few games of the season.

Clinton, I love you man but you're wrong. I don't want you playing a whole game but I think you aught to play a half or two before the season.

The only one's that it will rub the wrong way is the coaches who decieded to put him in there, personally RB's have the least amount to adjust to on offense and take the biggest pounding, they really don't need any uneccassary pounding before the season starts.

Clinton can only play one way, thats just the way he's always done it. if he doesn't, he'll realize he's only 212lbs and that will ruin everything.

Portis should be annoyed. It's one thing for a star RB to get injured on a running play--but tacking a defender after an interception (after you laid out as usual in blitz pickup)--would be very frustrating. Give Portis some time and I think he'll cool off though...
