[QUOTE=maroonandblack30;512303]I agree with you.... "holding us back" is a good way to put it.

To those who keep pointing out that Portis is such a great blocker (and I agree he is)..... He isn't getting paid $20 mil to pass protect.[/QUO

The thing is - he is getting paid to pass protect ALONG WITH rushing the ball, making corners and safetys bite up etc. Thats the job of a well rounded good running back.
