Portis v. Betts: The Grass is Always Greener

i was going to comment on the backs, but i think that it's an o-line issue. we went from having one of the top o-lines to one of the worst in 2 games. thomas and jansen aren't just bodies in there, they're all-pro linemen.

i think we forget too fast the game is won in the trenches. part of reason our D has been playing so well, yesterday aside, is that we've been getting pressure from our front four. heck we even sacked brady yesterday.

while unforunate, i wouldn't expect either betts or portis to do significantly better than the other. remember this was supposed to be the year of the two back league; we've just been fucked royally with injuries.
