If Chargers can get a 1st & 3rd for Turner, don't we have to shop Betts?

As if I didn't see this coming.

Or maybe he's just seen the benefit of having two quality backs, like a lot of teams in this league are doing now. And given the fact Portis is coming off a serious injury it only makes sense to ease him back in rather than giving him 350 carries given the fact he's had a 1300+ yard season here and a 1500+ yard season.

Portis is still the better back and he's definitely not a system back, don't kid yourself. Your system back argument doesn't hold much water anymore.

The way the offensive line was playing in the 2nd half of last year Rock Cartwright would have probably had similar success to Betts.
