My opinion, my homer, band wagon, supposed fan opinion.
I agree that it's not the fault of the coaching staff. I was simply pointing out that Portis wasn't really out of line for speaking his mind, considering what had happened, and the fact that with starting tailbacks, it goes both ways. Some are pulled after a few plays, some play an entire quarter. I don't think he should be blasted for having a preference one way or the other.
