I'm concerned about our running game in Dallas.

Check these numbers:

-- No Redskin running back has rushed for over 100 yards in Dallas since Earnest Byner in 1991 (22 carries, 101 yds)

-- Clinton Portis has been held to less than 70 yards rushing in 8 games against the NFC East over 18 match-ups.

-- Portis averages 76 yards per game against the NFC East.

For some reason, our running game grinds to a halt in Texas Stadium. Portis needs to come through for this team like he did in that 5-game stretch in '05. As a matter of fact, the whole team needs to do that.
