All this Portis talk is overshadowing the fact that Chris Clemons sprained his knee. I don't know how serious the injury is, and I realize he's no CP. However, he's a pretty key contributor on passing downs and I'd hate to see him go down

They say clemons sprain was a third degree sprain which is the worst. he is out for several weeks from what I read. I will try to locate the link.

I hope he gets a series in the last preseason game. Get him back in the flow of things.

This is not an injury to be rushed back in. If it does not heal it will require surgery and then he is done for the year. If he comes back for that last preseason game he better be way past 100%

That's impossible!

sorry, what I mean is past 100% in the fact that he has been there for a little while. He wont be there until atleast week 1.

Is he going to have to wear one of those goofy looking shoulder braces?
My main concern at this point is that he may be hesitant to take on a hit or throw a stiff arm with the left. That could mean less break aways, and it could hurt him when it comes to picking up the blitz.

there is absolutley no reason for portis to play at all again in the preseason. i wouldnt play betts a whole lot either. lets see some of the no names and see if any can contribute on special teams

I agree...no more portis until the regular season when he starts piling up the yards. One thing that will be interesting is to see Betts in the offense. Now he's no Portis, but Saunders was looking to get him more involved and it will be interesting to see if he fits well.
Aside to Matty: Love the new white background...loads so much faster here at work for me...plus it looks less like Im on a Skins fansite!
