At the least, Snyder's coddling of Portis puts Zorn in an awkward position. It sounded like Zorn was unhappy w/CP, but then had to retract some of his statements about him missing practice after CP mouthed off on J. Thompson's show & then went to DS.
Snyder might not "meddle" the way some have accused him, but he definitely wants to market his team a certain way, as that is his business expertise. Seems that he's given Portis disproportionate of $ & personal leeway in the process.
Does that mean he's telling Zorn to give CP 25 carries & Betts only a few each game? I don't know, but I bet DS loved the sound of hearing "the NFL's leading rusher, Clinton Portis" when the team was on a roll in the first half of 08.

I'm betting he probably liked the sound of 6-2 better
