He made me think I had been wrong about him and that Zorn had really turned him into a legitimate NFL QB. Sad thing is, that since that streak he has reverted to looking like the same slow-witted Campbell that so frustrated me up until that point.

He baffles me I must admit.

Davy. The way I see it is when Portis got hurt it really changed our O scheme. Not only was he throwing opposing D off with the threat of his running but was adding superior pass protection. He obviously gave JC added confidence and took the pressure off him.

After Portis injuries started we left him in the games but we were not fooling anyone. Opposing D started playing a little deeper and tighter. A weak O line was all that was needed for the decline.

Portis is the only constant. Had he stayed healthy would be talking about other things. IMO.

Nobody beats Dallas and Philly on the road and then losses to the Rams at home and the Bengals.
