I just saw Peter King on P.T.I and he said he has been told that we may keep Portis, Draft a QB in the 1st round and then let Campbell go.. I hope that isn't true. I would rather have JC with a rookie for competition
I heard that as well but usually PK is wrong and plus he hates the skins. Judging by the press conference I would think the complete opposite. Shannahan sounded like Campbell was going to be here next year as if it was a done deal.

Well Zorn was talking like he had off-season plans and we all knew what was going on there. ;)
Just saying that at this point who the hell knows what's going to happen with the team. I get the feeling there may be some surprise cuts.

JC has 1yr. If we shore up the o-line in the 1st and 3rd, get a WR in a trade (Marshall) and sign a FA RB (Norwood) he can be successful.

Funny how some you guys are blasting CP for sying the same things some of you have been posting about JC this whole season!!! )
You can't see the difference? We're just a bunch of fans griping on Warpath. Portis threw his own teammate under the bus.

Yea.. I voted Portis.... just because i feel weve gotten fickle with em a little.
Its kinda disrespectful...
CP held this team up offensively since weve gotten him.
Now he has his 1st poor season and EVERYONES hopping on the side of our mediocre QB?
AND I LIKE CAMPBELL... this is coming from someone who like Jason Campbell as a player as well... Ive always talked about his progression as JC was being bashed by everyone on here, just to clear that up.
UNLESS CP cant handle the fact of being part of a Multi-back system and was REALLY gonna be a pain in the ass this year id release em.

You are wrong on every point but your last.
I cringe each time i hear the "portis is our whole offense" argument.
1st bad season? where were you in 2006, 2008, and this year?
How much more does CP have to do do his coaches and team-mates to make you take off the Portis-colored glasses??
I was just like you. Portis used to be my fav' skin in 2004 and 2005, but i quickly figured out what he was all about...u should do the same

This has got nothing to do with on field performance, we're talking about his comments only, and his inability to censor himself when it comes to just about anybody it seems. It's not like this is the first time CP has thrown someone under the bus. I defended him in the past but now I'm done.

Its obvious as far as on-field performance, that he talks a bigger game than he plays....Portis is done, people need to face the facts.

I just think it's funny that some want to talk about past performance and how that should somehow give CP a pass... the guy hasn't done squat since the first half of the 2008 season. Since then he looks like he hit a serious wall.
I'm still holding out hope that Shanahan can whip him back into shape and get 15 quality carries out of him per game, but I'm in a big time wait and see approach with him.

JC is an RFA, the Skins will probably tender him a mid-range offer that won't break the bank. Portis is scheduled to make $ 10M in 2010. The Skins aren't going to pay $ 10M for a RB getting 15 (probably medicore) carries per game. Plus in an uncapped year there won't be a cap hit. The Skins need to unload all their bad contracts this off-season, starting March 1.
