Re: Portis and Betts: Should We Just Stick With Portis?

Great idea. Then we'll do to our running game what the Bears did to theirs in the offseason. Gut it. we have 40% of last year's starting offensive line. Our entire right side is staffed with backups.

And Clinton plays with a reckless abandon that 35 snaps a game will virtually guarantee he misses time through a season due to injury. You can keep him running healthier, and thus harder if you can keep his load between 20 and 25 carries.

And, they are different types of backs. Defenses get used to how fast Clinton hits the hole, and then the change of pace with Ladell can affect the timing for the opposition's run attack.

Come on.
