Re: Portis: The Ultimate Team Player
Clinton is great - agreed. But the organization owes it to him, and it the Redskins themselves, to PITCH HIM THE BALL OUTSIDE MORE. He's not an up-the-gut runner like Ladell. Swing him outside, where he can use his eagle-eye vision, and he becomes a terrifying running back.

Re: Portis: The Ultimate Team Player
One thing I admire about Portis is that he doesn't bitch and moan about lack of carries, O-line not opening holes for him, not enough stretch and toss plays...etc. He just goes about doing the little things to help Skins win. If he's asked to block a DE or a LB...he'll do it. If he's asked to play WR...he'll do it. He is a "team first" guy and he's worth his paycheck IMO.

Re: Portis: The Ultimate Team Player
Portis gained his 5000th yard rushing during the Eagles game. The Redskins recognized that by flashing his image on the big screen at FedEx and with a PA announcement so that stadium fans could recognize him, which they loudly did. Portis rushed for most of those yards while with Denver.
Does that make the Redskins a first class organization according to the TO definition? |
