What pissed Shanahan off with Portis, and I guarantee you why he was pulled, was when he broke that run and voluntarily slid down like he always used to do, instead of trying to fight for more yards.
You will see more of Ryan Torain, and perhaps LJ could even be brought back as #2.

Shanahan said today Portis told him he was having trouble with his wrist and wasn't sure he could secure the ball if he had to absorb contact on it. I guess one is left to asume Shanahan didn't feel comfortable with Portis being in the game based on what he told him.
