Yeah it sounds like some signals between Gibbs and Saunders are getting crossed. Gibbs has told Portis to get out of the game if he's tired. Now Saunders is saying he doesn't like it. Sounds like the two of them need to get together and decide how they want to handle Portis's rest.
I'd like to see Portis resting himself earlier in the game so he can be fresher for the fourth quarter, that's probably what Saunders was expressing. He's probably fine with Portis taking himself out in the 2nd quarter to get a breather, but I imagine that when the game's on the line in the 4th quarter, he wants Portis in there.
I'm sure they'll clear it up.
