#56fanatic: Fair enough about Portis.

I don't think Rock's performance was sufficient to get him carries against the Cards, because we need a #2 back, not RB by committee. Betts is (IMO) our best #2 back option. I agree, Rock did well against the Rams, but I think Betts would have broken 100 yards as well. I don't think Rock is the answer for our last three games, so I agree with Gibbs putting him back in reserve. Betts needed the carries to get back in the flow of the game after missing the week before.
