Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I wish i had the authority to make a poll, but maybe someone will that can.

My question is simple. After all Portis has done, throwing teammates, and coaches under the bus, now attacking Jason Campbell, and the fact that he refuses to work out, practice, attend team meetings, or participate in OTAs.....Do you want Portis off the team next season?

I vote yes.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I do. We're not good. Having him won't make us drastically better even if he stays healthy and maximizes his remaining skills. But with him gone we lose a great amount of distractions that are contributing to what is the fundamental problem with the group...they're not a team..

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Only if we can get a couple late round picks or a decent 2 or 3 pick for him for him. If no one wants to pay that for him o well. I would even take an OL also. Keep Campbell too and let Shanny coach him up.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

thanks to whoever made the poll.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

There is no way we get anything for Portis unless there is a team out there that is desperate to get him. Which I doubt there is.

Cut him asap. I'm so over him and his attitude. Later CP. Thanks for everything.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

totally, let him go

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

YES...get that horrible Snyder/Vinny contract off the books...he has lost a step and I would not be surprised if no one picks him up when he is cut. The guy seems lazy and disinterested as well, we need serious change on this team especially this weakass offense lets start with him first

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Gone.... I'm over him already. At this point in his career, he is not adding anything to the team; the negatives outweigh the positives.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

If he does come back, he will be back under Shanahan's terms meaning he will be in shape, he will practice, and he will keep his mouth shut. Given that yeah I would bring him back.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Nahh keep Portis. People think running backs are a dime a dozen. I see things differently.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Even with CP back, I'm pretty sure we'll see a RB taken in the draft. Interesting to note that Shanahan was interested in trading for Betts a few years ago.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Bring him back if he wants to work, of course if there is no new cba in place I would say cut him and that fat bloated contract of the books. If there is no market for the kid bring him back on a lesser contract. Even then I do not know if I want him on the team. CP wasn't exactly quite when he was in the end of his run in Denver under MS's discipline.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Clinton Portis is the best offensive linemen we have at this point. Until the line gets shored up it will help our QB to have a running back that actually picks up blitzers.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I only want him back if we can put him in a dunk tank at the 50 yard line.

Just kidding...but he does need to go.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I accidentally voted No but i meant Yes. Not that one vote has ever counted.

I think he is worth the roster spot for at least one more season. I believe he should get a second chance with the skins in the Shanny system provided he can keep his mouth shut. I absolutely think he still has some gas in the tank and if next year is uncapped, who cares what his salary is? Ultimately it comes down to this equation for me...

(CP's Remaining Production + His Motivation to prove himself - His Issues) X Shanny's system > 1 Year's experience for our Future Back

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Do you all want Anders Beutel to return? Maybe a poll.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

He can't go fast enough for me. Gone.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I voted no but I'm sort of on the fence about him. He has been such a distraction at times it's easy to become discouraged about him. There's a possibility he could still be productive in a lesser role but the problem is, will they be willing to pay him what he's owed for lesser production. If I were forced to not straddle the fence I'd say no.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I agree!!! Bye Bye Clinton...

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

If everything else were equal, I would say bring him back.

But the opportunity to dump his bloated salary in an uncapped year is too great. I say send him packing.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I would like to see him gone but is that feasible. Unless another team is willing to accept him in a trade, the Skins may be stuck with him.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Yes.

If we were on the cusp of the playoffs I might want him back to share carries, but on this team what's the point? Id rather the reps go to our young RBs whoever they may be.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I accidently hit yes. Yes I want him gone next season. Either that or I want someone to control him. It's either or. He can't be allowed to cut the coach's and players's legs out from under them. At this point in his career I don't understand why you'd keep him anyway?

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

thats the biggest thing TTE.....he is physically done. I don't like him at all but i felt bad for him week after week going out there like he still had "it". His career is over...just like Shaun Alexander.

re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Sorry about that. I just realized the Poll title is not the same as the thread title. Since a lot of people have already voted I will change the thread title to hopefully avoid further confusion

Re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I am waiting to see what Shanny decides. I have confidence in what I heard from him. He is evaluating the situation, analyzing, and unlike Zorn actually knows what he is looking for. If he is not ready to produce he won't be here. I take performances under Zorn and then skew them sorta like the Doppler effect in Astronomy and Physics. Except I call it the extra medium effect. Zorn and Jaws are garbage. Steve Young laughed on those two monday night games, he thoug,ht the whoe situation was funny. you could see the embarassment on the players faces they knew that garbage so called offense was not gonna work. They knew the play caller did not know what he was doing. Portis called it early "genius" BWAHAHAHAH!.

Sorry I meant to say NO.

Re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

Whether we want CP back or not, he will be a Redskin one more year. He collects 7 Mil next year from the Skins whether he plays for us or not and nobody will want to trade for him. You can still hang on to your # 26 jerseys one more year!!!!!!!!!

I think Portis is a flake and isn't well spoken and he's very selfish/self centered.

He and Jason have already patched things up.

And at the end of the day a healthy in shape Portis is our best RB and is still a good RB in the league.

And imo you don't let talent walk. (especially when we're paying the dude)

I think we should draft a RB in the later rounds 4th and down.

But we should bring Portis back and if doesn't produce and isn't a team player we just cut him.

I wonder whether they really have patched things up or just removed the conflict from public view.

Yeah I noticed that too in the Cartwright/Campbell video.. I wonder what Shanahan was offering.

Re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

That is one confusing ass poll, you have the thread titled, "Do you want him back?" and then you ask the question, "Do you want him gone?"

I voted "No" because I don't want him on the team. I think he should be gone. I was fine with his antics until he started throwing people under the bus, namely the starting quarterback. That can't slide, especially not with the poor production we've seen from him recently.

Cut his ass during the cap free season and go after a young guy with more gas in the tank.

Re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I have wanted CP gone for 2 years now.

Re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

In a vacuum, yes, I want Portis back next season.

In reality, there's outside factors that may make it impractical to bring him back. We have to be mindful of the whole situation. The days of doing what Portis thinks should be done are over.

Re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I just think salary cap wise, it would be stupid to let Portis go despite his comments, just make it clear to him that anything less than 100% participation in all voluntary and non-voluntary activities will be unacceptable.

Draft a RB to come in as a change of pace back who takes over the starting role the following season unless Portis shows massive improvement

I agree with you; even if you wanted to keep him for one more year, his contract would really buckle you down any other time you wanted to get rid of him. Now is the best time.

Second, running backs are a dime a dozen and the person who drove home that philosophy is now the head coach. Portis isn't helping himself with all of these offseason distractions, and too be honest, he isn't the same player anymore. Let him go.

I think you already know.........

Re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

I voted no, especially on the firm assumption of an uncapped year. I think he may bring something to the team IF he lives up to Shanahan's criteria, but the upside is not equal to clearing out his contract when a cap comes back and what a young RB who gets schooled by Shanahan's crew could bring to the team.

Re: Do you want Portis back next season?
 

CP must go
Sometime back he......"jumped the Artie"
