Re: Clinton Portis Loves Marko Mitchell

The more I think about it he more amazed I am. We haven't had a WR who could run that fade route like that since when?

We did offer Hackett contracts before which he turned down.

Nonetheless I'm with Smootsmack. Hackett is not just going to be handed the job. On that note, he didn't help himself a lot tonight.

It seems like forever. I didn't think we still had it in the playbook.

Yeah I couldn't remember the last time we actually worked a fade route for a touchdown with a tall wideout like that. And I agree, he ran a good route, he was patient at the beginning to give Daniels a little more time and it was a great leaping catch. He definitely impressed me tonight. I actually wouldn't be that concerned if he wasn't that good on special teams because so far he's looked like a dependable guy with reliable hands who runs decent routes. We could use another guy like that. Plus he's 6'4 which doesn't hurt either, especially down by the end zone.

Me too! If Mitchell continues to excel next two games, then I would have hard time not to believe that Mitchell will take the #5 spot..
