Zorn doesn't seem to trust Betts. Id like to see Rock get a real chance. What good will a good line do with Portis on the sidelines when we need him the most.

As far as his injuries. They are not serious but are chronic. His high ankle sprains date back to his days in Denver. So Im starting to question the neglect of our backs non involvement. I think this may come back on us.

I'd hate to see us finally start to gel and be short Portis. That would be frustrating.

AND, we need to bringing up Portis replacement anyway as he won't play forever. Perhaps we could glean a diamond in the rough ala Denver, NE
