Portis handles tha ball much more than cooley and runs just as tough as cooley and he does not fumble as much.

No, I don't think fumbles are OK. But I don't think anybody fights harder after the catch than Cooley does, and I'm saying, watch his technique when he runs with the ball, he tucks that ball and protects it.

Saying Portis doesn't fumble as much is completely irrelevant, since the hits he takes are 9/10 times running into a wall of guys at the line. Catching and running downfield is a completely different type of ball protection game.

Not to mention, half of the balls Cooley catches are total garbage throws from Brunell as the pocket is collapsing, and more often than not, Cooley turns a busted play into a first down.
