Look I know that Portis is a very important piece to the offensive puzzle in DC. But there is no way that all of the offensive woes can be credited to his absence.

Portis was in the plyoff game last season where the offense only managed 49 yards of passing for a whole game.

Truth be told, for the last couple of years the Washington defense has had the ability to keep games close for 4 quarters in the hope that the offense can produce something. And that did not happen last night. They kept the Monday night game vs. Minnesota close, but the offense could not come through and support them.

I still think that the Redskins will do what they do best..and that is get comfortable in the new offense about mid-season and then have another huge win streak like last season to make a playoff run. As long as the defense can stay healthy and keep them in games for 4 quarters.
