I always laugh when fans from one team start "telling" fans of another team what is going to happen with the other teams players.
Nevertheless in 2006,
when portis went down, Betts started 9 of the 16 games and had over 1100yds rushing. While it was a horrible year, could Betts have gone for 1800+yds rushing had he started the entire year and would it have made a difference in the season?
Who knows, but not bad for a backup and only starting half the season.
Just a little food for thought.......
