Saunders' offenses in KC had Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson racking up 300-350 carries per season.

Portis had in the vicinity of 350 carries both seasons with the 'Skins. I wouldn't expect him to be sitting on the sidelines twiddling his thumbs for the season. The dude was the workhorse the last two seasons, and Saunders' track record shows he works his RBs pretty hard.

If I'm not mistaken, didn't KC use a similar zone blocking scheme to the one in Denver that Portis ran so well?
