In the long run, neither Portis or Betts is the answer. It's just the nature of the game and the nature of life that they have only so much left to give as full-time backs. Maybe a year or two more. Maybe.

do you think we would spend every fist round pick on offense like the Colts? Do you think we would put up with 7 years of Peyton Manning's playopff futility like the Colts did? Yall would be crying for Peyton to be fired. Roster envy!!!

HAHAHHA...wow.

Yeah I would hate for Peyton to be a Skin.

You forgot about those years when Peyton he couldn't win a playoff game? the Colts stuck with him. You don't seem the kind to stick behind the Redskins players. One bad game and ohh we need to get rid of them.

Peyton has been one of the best QBs in the league since he was drafted...Good QBs are at a premium...no one ever suggested giving on him. CP is an old, worn down RB, RBs are a dime a dozen in this league, even good ones.

Peyton Manning is a great teammate and leader, CP is a selfish cancer....I hardly think thats a good comparison

Really? Just one?

I think the bottom line is that Portis is hurt. It happened sometime last year after or during he was leading the league in rushing. Now because he is hurt, he has missed practice time and between not practicing and being injured, he just is not effective right now.

He should be benched until he is 100% and I would say that if Betts continues to play like this, Betts should be our starting runningback until Clinton EARNS the starting spot back. Unfortunately it seems that starting runningback is Portis' job if he feels like he can play. Zorn's press conference today didn't give me confidence that anything has changed and when Clinton feels like playing he will be back in, even if he is still hurt.

I totally agree....At the same time, Portis is always hurt thats who he is. Kinda of like Bryan Westbrook or Bob Sanders...the "he is very good when he is healthy" arguement gets tired after 2-3 years.

I agree about Zorns PC...he sounded like as soon as Portis is healthy the job is his.
