Re: SI Ranks Offensive Backfields
To me, the fact the Defense didnt get alot of sacks and turnovers was annoying, but ultimately they didnt give up alot of yards or points - bottom line. Now turnovers would have been nice because Gods knows our struggling offense could have used some short drives, but the D still managed to be top 6 for both pts and yards allowed.

Re: SI Ranks Offensive Backfields
JC right now is in the lower half of QBs, maybe lower 3rd or so; CP is great, but not homerun hitting; and other than almost 3 years ago we haven't seen anyone else do anything in the backfield, except for block. We need to start thinking about who's the next RB, I'm not trying to push Portis out but who knows how he'll be able to keep up.. one serious injury could make him never the same again
I don't see how that makes us 26th though, looks like they're basing the rate on the speculation that Campbell will be shaky from this and Portis will be beat up -- a lil too early to "guarantee" that |

Re: SI Ranks Offensive Backfields
SI is garbage anyway...I value the Sporting News alot more anyway. Peter King...?...Please... who really cares about preseason rankings anyway..but there is no way in hell our backfield is 26th in the NFL. Portis alone should place it in the top 20... even if Pee Wee Herman was his QB.

Re: SI Ranks Offensive Backfields
yeah but was that totally Portis and Campbell's fault? The whole team was worse in the second half. The O-line was banged up and suffered, the receivers dropped balls and the rookies were injured, even Sellers regressed. Not to mention, the defense couldnt stop anyone when needed. If we are strictly talking about the RB and QB, the skins combo is about middle of the road IMO. Portis is a top 10 RB and JC maybe a bottom 10 QB, but not the worst.

Portis is a top 5 back maybe even top 3. Campbell is no worse then a middle of the pack QB(Somewhere between 15-20).
