Portis was always a workhorse. But the entire philosophy of featuring one back no longer works in this league.
It hasn't for a decade now. I just wish that our coaches would have understood that, and would have pulled off a mini Herschel Walker type of trade with Portis years ago.
Chris Johnson runs for 2,000. Who cares? How did his team do in the playoffs?
Maurice Jones-Drew? He is great. It still didn't translate to playoffs.
How far did LJ take Kansas City all of those 300 carry years?
Betts, had he stayed healthy, was more than sufficient in my humble opinion.
Anyway, my gf is going crazy about me being on the Redskins site this late at night. LOL.
I look forward to talking with all of you over the coming days.
This is a great site you have here. Have a great night everyone.
