Portis Overrated?

:hitfan:

I love that smiley... he sticks his tounge out after there's poop on his face lol.


he actually wipes the poop on to his tongue.:hitfan: :vomit:

you just rephrased what I said right there - stats & intangibles. T0 being an asshole is intangible. Moss, Patten and Portis's work ethic are too. and that speaks more to Gibbs than whatever edge others may have in stats.


i think you and i are basically saying the same thing except i believe coaches look at a players stats moreso than you . a players stats show his production on the field and coaches want players that produce but most coaches, especially gibbs, will not sign a player solely on that players stats. good stats and a good team player attitude must go hand in hand for coach gibbs.

If the redskins were 9-3 and leading the division (3 close losses) would we be having this discussion?I highly doubt it!!!! He is not overrated.I believe he is a complete back run,catch,and block.Do whatever the team asks.Most other top backs are lacking in one of those categories.

no you're right, just explaining why judging Portis solely by the numbers in his (already very productive) stats and salary alone is vastly UNDERrating him

tatum bell was a second round pick too and he doesn't even compare to portis

not only is portis easily the better runner, he's a good receiver and one of the best blockers in the league My guess from your stupid ass coments is that Tatum Bell is not a system back. Also Champ seem to be a system CB as he is regulary burnt on the bomb.

Your views are way off. What you are saying to all of us is that we never complain about our team. My suggestion to you before you spew off false facts is go check the 10,000 + post on this site and come back and chat.

so r u talkin to me there or what...cuz u quoted me, but you're talking about crap that i didnt even say

tatum bell would be bad on any other team...any idiot could figure that out and he is definitely not a complete back

i'd have to agree that if tatum bell was really that great he'd be getting more than 15 carries a game and wouldn't be the backup to a slow FB. Of course he's an order of magnitude cheaper than portis...

if you wouldve told any redskin fan that portis would run for 1400+ yards with 10 touchdowns this season,everyone would be talking about the great season he had,he blocks everyone in sight,and has very good hands out of the backfield(i for one would like to see a rb screen once in a while)so what exactly is this thread about.anthony chance is obviously not a skins fan because regardless of what you think of#26,he is our running back,its not like fantasy football,we are stuck(blessed)with him

Portis is sadly underappreciated by a handful of fans. The guy is on pace to break the Skins single season rushing mark. He's a tough player who does everything you could want, block, catch, etc. I'm not sure what else people want out of him. He's already giving us 110% game in, game out.
