THat makes an AVERAGE of 4.08 yards per carry as a REDSKIN. notice he got 5.5 in denver. not a small point. almost 35% more effective in denver. while he scored 29 TDs in 2 seasons in denver, he's scored 23 in 3 in washington.

His average is low because of the first season under gibbs where they pounded it between tackles 40 times a game and he average well under 4 yards per carry. No back would have average more unless they weighed over 250 with the way that offense was run. Since Then, he has had above average yards per carry, anything over 4.2 is very effective in this league.
Portis is the better back OF COURSE!!!!
