Re: Betts better than Portis?

Portis:
Year Team G GS Att Yds Avg Lg TD 20+ 1st
2002 Denver Broncos 16 12 273 1508 5.5 59 15 11 79
2003 Denver Broncos 13 13 290 1591 5.5 65 14 13 76
2004 Washington Redskins 15 15 343 1315 3.8 64 5 5 65
2005 Washington Redskins 16 16 352 1516 4.3 47 11 6 74
2006 Washington Redskins 8 7 127 523 4.1 38 7 3 29
TOTAL 68 63 1385 6453 4.7 65 52 38 323

THat makes an AVERAGE of 4.08 yards per carry as a REDSKIN. notice he got 5.5 in denver. not a small point. almost 35% more effective in denver. while he scored 29 TDs in 2 seasons in denver, he's scored 23 in 3 in washington.

I like the stats, but what is your point? I think we all know he has not produced those all-world numbers he produced in Denver. But he's been no slouch.

His average is low because of the first season under gibbs where they pounded it between tackles 40 times a game and he average well under 4 yards per carry. No back would have average more unless they weighed over 250 with the way that offense was run. Since Then, he has had above average yards per carry, anything over 4.2 is very effective in this league.

Portis is the better back OF COURSE!!!!

Hey I like sellers just as much as anybody but if u want a one dimensional back there he is. He runds straight and hard and there nothing else to him. When he does happen to get good yardage the defense was probably looking for a pass play where he is blocking or oging out for a pas sbecuase that is pretty ,much what we use the guy for.
