Portis and Betts: Should We Just Stick With Portis?

[SmootSmack]

Redskin Rich, did Portis not sign a football for you or something? Seems like you have a lot of actual hate for Portis.

lol... that was good smoot... no, I never met Portis... nor tried to.... I am not that big on the current guys.

I think of the Redskins as a North South running team. I also think that Portis has been run hard over the years and his best days are behind him.

His best days are behind him at what 26 yrs old?

Oh, and I know your response to that. He's a very old 26 yrs old, right?

So to speak, yes my friend... he is not strong enough to take the beating he took early in his career. He is one of the many running backs that were only good for a few years.

That's just a ridiculous statement. One of the fastest running backs EVER to 5,000 yards, was only good for a few years... Newsflash. He's still very good.

Betts had a solid half season. He's shown nothing this season to warrent a starting job, especially in Washington.
