Sorry but "push CP"

Really? I can count all of two backs in the whole league who could be said to "push" CP...but then i tend to think that's a lousy comparison even because Peterson and Turner both run behind vastly superior lines.

Amen, CP has been good for us, but take a look at his stats from his Bronco days behind thier insane line (it was insane back then, any runner that was behind it had over a thousand yards). If we can get a a couple of more pieces on that line, watch out world.

Re: Do You think Betts is Expendable?

What about the new "TE" the skins drafted, Eddie Williams? I know it's early to envision him doing anything like spelling Portis, but what do you think the FO had in mind when they drafted him (I'm thinking Sellers back-up)? Assuming he makes the team, perhaps he'd end up being good for some tough up-the-gut carries, although we'd need to bulk him up by 20 lbs or so. Depending on how he, Dorsey and Aldridge do in camp, we'll know exactly how much leeway we have with Rock and Betts, and if one of those guys can step up, I think that would be great for the team. As much as I love Rock (always see him and Smoot at caps games), I don't know how much he helps our team on the field.
