LT yes, but LJ & Barber? Barber's an all around back but LJ can't block, Portis can & does.

I just hope Portis bounces back from the surgeries and injuries better than ever. We all saw what injuries did to Jamal Lewis...

Putting LT in front of Portis is fine, but LJ is a cry baby and Tiki is soft. They may get more yards than Portis, but the point that most of the replys to this thread are making is how Portis plays without the ball in his hands, which is as hard or harder than any back in the league. Tiki chops blitzing linebackers. Portis stones them.
