Portis Says This Year Could Be Last With Skins.

This is eerily similar to when Gibbs says "If I don't start winning, they might send me back to NASCAR <<high pitched nervous laugh>>"

All CP has to do is play like he's shown he can and all will be fine

Yeah, I agree. I just hate that he always says something to worry everyone. :doh:

CP tends to think out loud, yet it seems everyone hangs on his words and takes them way too seriously.

His comments are motivation for him to have a good year. He knows how injuries can affect how people look at you(aka David Patten), but he is secure with the org. because he proved his toughness last year. This is just his way to put pressure on himself to perform.
Portis over fumbling Betts anyday!!!

I think this comment is closer to what he actually feels than most of the things he says, and I'd have to say that I agree. That's the way the front office does business in Washington. As soon as a player shows the slightest hint of having lost a step, he's expendable. Face of the team or not.

I think what Joe really meant is.....if these guys make me look bad again this year.....I've had enough of this new NFL crap!

I'm OUTTA HERE!

I love CP, and I think he is an elite RB. However, I would not be disappointed if we traded him for some 1st day picks. With the exception of our secondary, we are old at every position. We need youth desperately, and this is one possibility that could help. If we could get a 2nd and a 3rd, then we'd have our 1st, two 2nds, and two 3rds. If we did it right we could get 5 starting-quality young players for relatively cheap. I would be pleased if this happened.

CP speaks what he is thinking w/o worry for what others may infer from those comments. He's right, though, if he doesn't perform or can't stay healthy the Skins should get rid of him.

Yeah, I agree I don't think we need to be overpaying 2 running backs. Before we release him though I think we should secure another decent running back.

I think all CP is saying is that if you are not healthy a team is not going to keep you around very long. Especially when you have good depth at that position, aka Betts. Really a non-story.
