He didn't get a good report out of Pittsburgh. He made a reference to the concussion affecting his vision. He said playing again was not worth risking his health.

Portis has to think about his future seriously. He's been on injured reserve now twice in 4 seasons.

I had alot of respect for him until last season when he started trashing everybody. This year didn't do him any favors.....

Look's like Riggo's record is safe....

Who did he trash ?

He trashed the coach last year. He trashed Sellers this year and I'm pretty sure thats when many of his teammates "soured" on him. Snyder has a new pet in Haynesworth (whom he evidently talks to on a weekly basis), so Portis has even outlived his usefulness there. Hopefully, it'll be the new coaches decision on what to do with Portis, but as far as i'm concerned, he's excess baggage.

So he bashed Zorn for horrible playcalling something that I think that we can all agree that he was right about.

He trashed Sellers for not blocking well which was proven to be right.

Which teammates "soured" on him ?

I'm asking because for a guy who almost gave you 1,500 yards last year he is expendable. Or is it because he was a Snyder guy ? Which is what I think it really breaks down to because of your Haynesworth comment. Sometimes you guys really amaze me, the man had 1,480+ last year. Seriousy ? Wow, and I can get bashed for pointing out Jasons flaws. This is not a Jason thread I have plenty to bash him on just making a point.

So if another player bashed another player/players would he be a bad guy ?
