Basically, it all starts with Portis

Very good points. It does seem like a common theme on these boards to bash anyone that makes money. If a player making money is your biggest gripe, you should complain to Snyder, because even if he wasn't paying our current players big bucks, he'd be paying someone else.

The only person that has escaped this scrutiny so far this year is Santana Moss, and that's only because he leads the league in receiving. God forbid he has a few off weeks. Half the forum will be screaming that he's overrated and "isn't the gamechanger we thought he'd be".

I assume that quote is directed at me, since I have often said that Clinton Portis hasn't quite lived up to expectations.

By the way, Moss had a relatively 'quiet' day, maybe it's a 'bad game' by his standards with only 4 catches for 34 yards.

Did you hear me or anyone else calling for his head?

Right. I didn't think so.

Actually, I wasn't talking about any one person in particular, but if it was you that made that comment about Portis, that's probably where I got it. And my point with the Moss comment was just to point out that in general, the vibe on this board is a player is "overrated" if he's high payed and not performing in the top five at his position.
