Gardner, he almost single handily beat dallas, and he almost did it again yesterday, you can talk about talent all you want, Gardner is the one producing, and he is up against just as much of a stacked deck as Portis, Portis has no where to run, Gardner has no one to throw him the ball, and yet he's managed to outplay Portis, what happened to all the Barry Sander's comparison's I was hearing a few week's ago, when did Sander's ever need blocking, why can't Portis make something out of nothing? Gardner has made catches when they weren't there, catches that most reciever's only dream of catching, If Portis is everything everyone say's he is, he should be doing far better than he's doing now, I like Portis but right now regardless of the reason he has not impacted games like Gardner has, and I was Gardner's biggest detracter.
I guess Gardner doesn't block, and if Portis is blocking so well how come so many here keep saying Brunell protection is below average?
