I think you are much safer with 2 good backs.... but CP is not the smash mouth type of runner you normally associate with Joe Gibbs. As I have said in other threads..... I would like to see another big back come in and trade Portis .... I bet we could get alot for him.

How about TJ Duckett? Oh wait . . . Let's not throw Portis under the bus. He was the party starter in 2005 and when he was healthy last year he made the whole team better. He is a great blocker, hard nosed, just a damn good FOOTBALL player. That is why Gibbs loves Portis, that is why I love Portis, then he gets hurt and everyone is ready to toss him overboard, foolish.

I agree CP is a great back and can be of a significant benefit to a team. I just think a Redskin running back is more in the tradition of Larry Brown, Riggo, & Stephen Davis.
