You would expect Portis to dominate a defense like the Rams or Cards. On the other hand it was nice to see Rock get some PT and produce. I am not saying Portis is a good back against bad teams and so so against good teams, let me get that out of the way. He did what he should have done. That being said, I would like to see the team as dedicated to the run vs. teams like Dallas and NY and see what type of game he has. All too often we drop the running game and Portis isn't much of a factor later in games, like the Raiders and San Diego. Didn't you think that Rocks performance against the Rams should have earned some carrys here and there against the Cards?
