Actually in this case it does. Portis played through a shitload of injury last year, and that is why I mentioned his yards were tough up the middle. That has plenty to do with showing he is not weak. Because usually when people make predictions or statements, they use the past to verify their claims. Portis's past shows he is a tough runner that plays hurt, and goes for hard earned yards. That is why I think he is not fragile, along with the fact the injury really isn't that bad compared to other injuries(ie. Palmer).
