portis cant block for himself. the line was terrible last year. the opposing teams stacked the line against portis because there was no passing threat.

portis went from a top 5 offence to a bottom 5 offence with difference of 200 yards. thats pretty damn good.

look at it this way, what back in our system last year would've ran for more yards/tds than portis? Tomlinson is the best back in the league and thats the only one that comes to mind.
how do you think bell wouldve played in our system last year?
