Portis Overrated?

FYI, I'm not so naive that I think that anyone can get TO to shut up and play.

i'd say judging football players strictly by their stats is naive (as if Portis's yds were something to sneeze at). ask Gibbs and Williams what they think of doing that. better yet ask Andy Reid. ask him what a football TEAM is.
