This might explain some things. Like why we ran him in the ground and why we didn't see more of Betts

I think this is the problem right here. I think Betts is a good back, he just can't get any chances with Portis wanting to get his numbers. Zorn wanted to play Betts in Baltimore and got trashed by Portis in the press because of it. I know some people hate to hear anything bad about Portis. He gives it his all when he's on the field. He's also thrives on attention and is a prima donna. These traits can co-exist in the same player.

Sort of makes him a fascinating player don't u think? Def not anything like TO as far as the prima donna complex but I'd say CP is more eccentric.
