As for Portis, we can't really ask more from him. The guy is a complete warrior on the field. We just have to start trusting in our players to win the game not just managing it to not lose the game.
We have to throw the ball vertically. Once they have to respect the pass and get safties out of the box, C.P. wil be able to do his thing Miami style, but not before

hucapan wins the New-comer of the month award in my opinion.
Until we have any semblance of a passing game that threatens the fiedl beyond 10 yards we won't run the ball effectively no matter what. Even if we magically find one I am dubious that the play of o-line right now will produce any great efforts without a Hurculean effort from CP each and every play.
