Well, now we have to ask, why didn't Betts get more carries? Playing for three different Redskin HCs, and in four different offenses, Betts only once in his career touched 100 carries.

So is Portis overworked because the coaches want him to be overworked, and we're wasting Betts' talents? Or is Betts only getting 4-5 carries per game because we play a lot of close games and Betts represents a significant downgrade from Portis that needs to be corrected?
