I dont like to disagree, but we are gonna need portis in the upcoming games, so i think we can rest him. When we play dallas, and i said this before the first time we played them when they seemed immortal, i said that someway somehow we find ways to beat dallas, and if you need an example think back 2 years to the game vs dallas at home. We should rest portis for this week and if we have to, next week at seattle, so he can be 100% against ny giants. I want SA starting. On a side note, i think SA should have some carries next week in seattle.

Yeah if Alexander plays well against Dallas we should start him against Seattle anyways, just to give Portis more of a rest (and mostly because Seattle isn't doing much this season). Against Dallas I expect Rock and SA to split carries in the first quarter, and depending on who is toting it better Zorn will begin to hand it to that person more.
