Would you rather have Portis or Davis?

Wasn't Buckhalter the starter for the Eagles?
Or maybe westbrook?

All I follow is the Skins so I had no idea who Portis was. Hopefully you are all correct and he'll be a Skins star for years to come. How does our OL compare to what he had in Denver though. Ours pretty much sucked last season. And I believe if Spurrier had kept Davis, he might still be our coach now and we'd have made the playoffs, like Carolina did with a lot of help from SD. Everyone also keeps talking about Portis' speed and game breaking ability. The same was said last season about Canidate. Without a good OL Portis may have his problems too. I certainly hope not though. With a great RB to balance our attack we should go far!!!

Add 1 part Jansen
1 part Samuels
1 part Thomas
a fresh Dockery
a pinch of Friedman
A Gibbs seasoning
Bake with Bugel for one training camp
Serve with Portis

The recipe...
For the number one rushing attack in the NFL next season...

I loved Davis, especially since we drafted and cultivated him and watching him break out was really satisfying ... but Portis is better.

Portis is better. He's the fastest back in football and yet he's still surprisingly powerful. Also, remember Betts. Now clearly he's not even close to being on the same level as these other guys but he can really pound the ball. He played well last year when he was healthy and Spurrier decided to give him the ball. The point I'm trying to make is that he'll complement Portis perfectly. Remember, Gibbs loved having two good backs as much as he liked having two good QBs. Now you have arguably the biggest homerun threat coming out of the backfield and a back to convert on third and short. I believe that Betts' presence can only make Portis that much better.
