Well he dosent say 100% that he wont play, but damnit!!!!!

Perhaps Joe is laying down his usual subterfuge, deception, and skullduggery. If not, that really blows!

MightyJoeGibbs · 09-15-2006, 04:24 PM

So what was the purpose of having him get as many reps as he did on Monday??
Why did Al think establishing a run game to not be important?
Gee- they could pay me 1/10 of what Al makes and Id get it done.

It's Duckett time.

I'm not sure if I believe this. The past two years we have had players unable to pratice but was ready for game day. They may have already been listed as douptful but they played. He is playing mind game with the Cowboys if you ask me. Read what Gibbs realy said in that article.

Asked if he was ruling Portis out for Sunday's game, Gibbs replied: "Well, I think if a guy doesn't practice, he's not going to play. So we'll downgrade him." Gibbs added: "He'll probably tell me that he can play on game day. But he didn't practice, so we'll move him down accordingly."

And then some...why wouldnt he play? Just because he didnt practice? We had guys do that all year last year and still play? I mean what are we even talking about...practice?? Not a game, not the game that Portis busts his ass for every week...were talkin about practice man...how silly is that...practice?

Seriously, if Portis says he can play, let him play and hold him out against Houston if you want. We're staring 0-2 right in the face, we need Clinton Portis in the game to make sure that dosent happen. Our offense is completley different with him in there, it was so much better Monday Night. I dont for one second think Duckett or Betts can do the job Portis can in there. Play him this week if he says he can go, and hold him out against the Texans.

I agree. Something just isn't right... Portis, Springs...

FRPLG · 09-15-2006, 04:43 PM

He's playing. No way he doesn't. Portis looked strong against Minny and will be good to go.

Don't you have better things to do? If I recall Dallas also LOST last week, and Bledsoe SUCKED. The coach doesn't even know how to throw a challenge flag properly. You're loving TO right now because you think he's the only real shot for Dallas to make it to the Supelbowl, which I think is pretty sad. You can't look at the whole team and think they can do it, but rather you rely on him alone to pull you through - pathetic. We'll see how that all pans out for the Cowgirls this season, as for now the Skins just need to do their thing. Any given Sunday. Now shut up go pray for the cowgirls!

Big C · 09-15-2006, 04:55 PM

we played him against minnisota, lost, and now we pay the price.

CrazyCanuck · 09-15-2006, 05:03 PM

Hate to say it but I think we can survive without Portis for a week or two.

I'd much rather have Springs or Prioleau back.
