I love the interview on Redskins.com with CP. I admire his knowledge of the game and his understanding of his role on the team. I think we got the better end of the trade because CP is good for morale, has a great attitude and can break open a game. I am looking forward to him having a stellar afternoon this Sunday. Plus his glasses are groovy, man.

Lets Be Honest, When Was The Last Time Cp Broke Open A Game. Hell, I Dont Even Know The Last Time He Scored A Td.
Just something to note, he's on pace for 1400+ yards this year, and he's just getting started. I think as the line continues to come together Portis will only get better.

Dont Get Me Wrong, I Love Portis, But We Havent Seen The "gamebreaking" Runs We Saw In Denver.and I Realize That This Is A Different Scheme And Opposing Defenses Say They Know When We Are Going To Run ,but Other Than His First Carry As A Redskin, He Really Hasn't Lived Up To His Huge Contract. Down In San Deigo, Tomlinson Has A Td In Something Like 18 Straight Games. Portis Doesnt Have One Yet This Year. He Really Hasnt Showed Me Much Since He Came To Dc.

He Really Hasnt Showed Me Much Since He Came To Dc.i know what you are saying but some of that falls on the offense as a whole. The 8 in the box and such. We as a team haven't looked good but Portis has been playing fine this year. I actually love how we are splitting the running up more this year because it keeps him healthy and ready to go. He hasn't been selfish, he has done what is asked of him and i think few could do it better. I think we will see more offensive production from him soon but look at some of the teams he is gonna play this year. Denver's run defense is brutal and he might not get 100 yards but we all know he is gonna run into that pile and carry it as far as he can

I Still Do Think Portis Is A Good Back. And I Still Do Believe He Will Get His 1000 Yards And Be A Very Good Option At Rb For Years To Come ,but He Needs To Score Tds.its Just That Simple.dont You Think That During Gibbs First Tenure As The Skins Coach Other Teams Were Stacking 8 Or 9 In The Box???. We Still Were Able To Punch It In On The Ground.and I Do Think Your Right Bigskinsbauer About The Offense As A Whole, But Come On Portis We Want Some Tds.NOW

I think Portis will be super fired-up to play against his old team. It will be fun to see o-line fire off into denver's d-line. Also, I will love to see chump bailey get plowed-over by pulling behemoths. I always thought that champ was over rated. Just prove me wright Portis and score baby score!
If the team is winning who cares about personal stats?

Good point. The more participation from Cooley, Thrash, Betts, Cartwright and Royal will deflect attention and defensive schemes to prevent CP's successful running game.
