Dude, are you forgetting about the legendary Cliff Battles and Jim Musick years? What is wrong with you? Kids today!

Also, LB was MVP in 72

i only go about as far back as george allen's"Ramskins" in 1971.
i guess bill dudley and sammy baugh were mvps too though.

no suprise he is getting the most touches and playing the best of any RB in the league.....have fun at the Pro Bowl.......maybe he will wear 21, so we never forget Sean Taylor.............miss that dude

Jamaican'Skin · 10-13-2008, 11:33 PM

He's been absolutely beastly this season

Sammy Baugh was the greatest of all Redskins.

Portis blocks better than any other back in the league. This statement comes from a guy who is not overly given to hyperbole.

If the season ended today CP would head to Honolulu. He might be MVP (Brees has a strong argument right now.)

I look forward to seeing Portis break that one last tackle more often - that is, shake that one defender who is the difference between a short run and a long run, or a long run and a long touchdown.

Portis in the backfield is pure happiness.

Great job, CP! This guy works so freaking hard during the games, who couldn't be happy for him finally having an elite season?

JankySpanky80 · 10-14-2008, 10:54 PM

Clinton is the beast of the East.LOL I'm very happy for him, but how many times have we lost when he hits 100 plus yards. Its not much, so in a losing effort I'm glad he showed up to play

CRedskinsRule · 10-14-2008, 11:02 PM

I know there is a SA thread, however, CP's numbers definitely are helped by Ladell's subbing and not giving the opposing d a rest till CP's next burst gets going. I hope SA wears down the defenses the same way.!

not only is the best blocking back in the league,he may be up there with the best of all time.i can't recall seeing a better blocking back ever than portis.maybe one or two fullbacks ,but no rbs.

hooskins · 10-15-2008, 11:53 AM

Maybe I'm an ass, but this isn't really doing it for me. I'm still bitter over the loss.

Yep, I wish he could elude that last tackle. Seems, like he is always one tackle away from a long TD run.
