No, its not his fault that we run the ball, but it is the front office's fault for signing him to a run first team- along with Brandon "model citizen" lloyd. Now, i would agree that ARE hasn't been a horrible signing- we def. overpaid for him, but i do see him as value adding- though he isn't returning many punts these days. While carter is playing better (and has a lot of tackles sunday) a couple of games does not a season make...

AA is not even worth further comment, neither is the model citizen.

far as i'm concerned, i don't want Betts back if we keep portis- which we will do. Let him go, use the money we would pay him to beef up CB or D line...whats the point of paying another guy starter money when we already have one of the highest paid back in the league! If we think Betts is THAT good, then let Portis go- which would be problematic given his injury and lack of stats. (relative to his workload).
