Tanner vs. Randy; Trevor vs. Blache, and now Portis vs...

He's a damn fine running back and I would not go so far as to say he's become a problem, but he is getting annoying.

Sometimes, I wonder how things would be different had we drafted Adrian Peterson instead of Landry.

I've never considered it wise to pubicly criticize those whom you are dependent upon for your own achievements. There was a time in football, like most sports where one would dare to do that, and if one did, they could count on their career coming to an abrupt halt at the hands of those they chose to criticize.
