As far as Portis breaking tackles, you could not be more wrong. HIS method of "breaking" tackles is exactly like Barry Sanders. He "breaks" them by avoiding them with jukes and spin moves. I'll take that in a RB ANY time. Gibbs needs to get him into a situation where his massive skills have a CHANCE to be used. Then he will pay off big time.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, don't compare Portis to Sander's again!
