Just because Gibbs choose to run him into the ground to legitamize the signing is meaningless as far as I am concerned. And by the way Betts is averging more YDS per carry this year than Portis, and Betts comes in to get the tough yards.
No he didn't make SB MVP out of Rypien, our O-line did, the fact is Rypien wasen't anything to speak of before or after that year, and why? the O-line didn't allow anyone within 7 yards of him all year, we were on pace to set an NFL record for fewest sacks that year before the last game against the eagles. Did Gibbs take advantage of that? Absolutly, but I want to see him do it without a dominate O-line. Some here have been diverting attention from Brunell and have been blaming the O-line, well if that's the case who's responsible for the O-line, and why?

Did this post make sense to anyone else? I mean, I don't pretend to be nearly as knowledgeable as Offiss is, none of us are, but this has me completely confused. Little help please. Thanks
