It doesn't have to be explained if you saw the games. He was the entire offense down the stretch.
so i guess he was the one with 1500 rec yards and 23 passing tds.... and he returned the fumbles into the endzone and plays def.

No he was the one with the redskin record of 1500+ yrd rushing.

The defense was solid all year. The difference down the stretch was Portis and the o-line's ability to grind it out and ice the games.

i dont buy that, no defense no playoffs last year brunell had a good year too and moss
You are correct. Defense got us there and won the TB game. If the right deal is on the table, and we could get some draft picks, I would trade Portis in a hearbeat. Betts, Duckett and Cartwright could handle the load. People forget Betts is a 2nd round draft pick and should be the starter anyway. Normal teams have their 2nd rounders, that have been around while starting. Not playing 2nd string.

Portis had 127 carries in 8 games.A average of 15 carries a game.In the last 2 weeks Betts has averaged 26 carries a game.Portis never ran the ball 25 times or more this year.So give Portis the ball 25 to 30 times a game and then see what happens.People that say trade Portis are stupid.He is one of the best backs in the NFL.What no one understands is he was not the same after the shoulder injury.If this team traded Portis i would be done with them.Thats why we suck in the first place.We let Smoot,Pierce and Clack go.Let CP go you guys are stupid.I see threads all the time b**ching all the time about Clark.We need to keep our team together for a season or 2.

Yeah, lets divide the team some more and get rid of what few real leaders we have. Dump our most productive and competitive players right now. That's a GREAT idea. Brilliant! (sarcasm).

One thing you have to realize is this team is NO quality depth. None what so ever. Plus some starters need to be replaced. So how do you get better? Go out and get more free agents? I think we all know that's not the way to go. So we have got to do it possibly by drafting and bringing in some free agents. How do we get draft picks since we have none? You have to give up something in order to get something. In other words we may have to take two steps back before we take one forward.
