He may not be a big back but he does run with quite a bit of power for someone his size.
He's not afraid of contact and he does break his share of tackles.
You kind of answered your own question, Gibbs will tailor the offense to suit his personnel. I wouldn't be surprised at all if the offense Gibbs runs this year looks totally different than the one we are used to. I'm sure the basics will be there, the motion, the formations, etc., but with a ton of new wrinkles.
I can also guarantee that one of the offenses Gibbs closely studied this offseason was the Broncos. One, because he wanted to see what sort of plays Portis excels in and two because Denver over the years has been the NFL benchmark for running games.
