Portis is tough. Hes small in height but its still built. He doesnt play like his size, he does run pepole over. THe only concern that I have with Portis, and I said this before he was drafted, that hes going to be an elite back in teh NFL, he'll probably break a bunch of records, but hes not going to have a very long career because of the abuse he puts on himself.
I hope im wrong, but he is small and runs up the gut as if he was ricky williams. Hopefully that will just be a maturity thing where he learns how to protect his body more and doesnt get dinged up as easy. But in the meantime I dont want any back other than portis in on 4th and 1.
