It looked like he lost a step to me. He was always one step from breaking it. I liked the sweep play but I don’t understand why we keep running it with Betts. Why didn’t we run it more with Portis? Am I paranoid or did anyone else notice this? Maybe this is the real reason we traded to Duckett. twinskinsfan 09-15-2006, 01:29 AM He did look alittle slow, but amybe he isn't comfartable with the new offense? Give him a couple of weeks. Hopefully he will break one for six. seven if Jon Hall can make it. twinskinsfan 09-15-2006, 01:30 AM comfortable, not comfartable AlvinWalton'sNeckBrace 09-15-2006, 01:36 AM It also seemed like we went away from the inside running that worked so well last year...don't mess with success saden1 09-15-2006, 01:46 AM Well, we're use to seeing Portis so when Betts plays he'll look slower. And boy did Portis look fast. vaoutlaws2006 09-15-2006, 02:07 AM he (portis) did look fast and honestly a little bigger. i still think that shoulder is still a bit nicked and he plays like it. When ever he saw contact coming i swear he would then switch and lead with the other shoulder. but maybe i was seeing things.as far as betts though i think he hasnt found his comfort zone yet. I just want to know if its 2nd and 3 from the 3 can we see a tj "truckett" duckett run?

Betts was drafted 2 rounds before anyone had him landing and he is no more than an average NFL running back. I can't understand the props he gets. The best thing he brings is kickoffs because he is solid and sound and otherwise he is a lovely average player. Big C 09-15-2006, 03:55 AM betts hits the hole hard, that was his strength and now we are going away from it dmek25 09-15-2006, 08:04 AM betts is a career backup. does anyone know why duckett didnt play? MTK 09-15-2006, 09:27 AM Duckett just didn't get a chance. Same reason why Lloyd didn't see any catches. It's just the way the game went.
