    Hey Redskins Fans! Portis just got BENCHED!

    The 50.5 million dollar RB just got benched in favor of Ladell Betts.

    Maybe Portis was just another RB in the amazing Denver system and is not the best RB ever to play as he's put it. He left because he said he was bigger then the Denver system and would not play there if he was not the highest paid player in football.

    Just goes to show ya what happens when you talk to much.

    Portis's replacment Ruben Droughns has more rushing yards, in less games then Portis as well.

    I think Portis is the next Olandis Gary.

          Looks like Joe Gibbs should have stayed in Racing. He's not up to par on the changes that have gone on in the nfl the past decade

                      He's been with them 3 years now. He's never been given a chance to be the man. They've always sort of had a RB by commitee type deal in Washington.

                      Last week when given a chance he did a lot better then Portis.

                          Exactly, all his hype about being the best ever, and all the t shirts, and shit he does. It's sad really. I remember earlier this season in an interview when he said he didn't see anything special about Preist Holmes or Edge James.. That they could not compare to him.

                          Maybe he needs to check his stats and see who has been a bigger help.

                                  Please all you Redskin fans are just mad because you thought he was going to be your saviour.

                                  ANYONE can run behind a decent offensive line and whoever they put in the backfield in Denver proves it. Washington O-lines sucks. How the hell is he supposed to RUN when he is getting tackled as soon as he gets the handoff? Changing running backs isnt going to fix anything. Sounds like a last ditch effort for the coach to save his job.

                                      Brunell was a bad idea really. They should have stuck with Ramsey and tried to develop him

                                                  Gibbs is in his first season, he won't have to worry about his job for a bit.

                                                  If the o line is so bad, why did Betts outrun him last week?

                                                                          "We felt our best way to get it downfield (was to throw)," Gibbs said. "I am sure he will be upset about it. I expect him to be. He is very competitive."

                                                                          Portis said, "I'm not in Denver anymore, I'm in Washington, I have to find a way to be a key player in this system, the same way I was there."

                                                                          ------------

                                                                          He is still going to have a 1K yard season this year, without "the O line" Portis is a great back - He isnt starting because the coaching staff KNOWS that since they have just been running the ball defenses have stacked the box and its not effective anymore. To place the blame on Portis for their record isnt fair.

                                                                          Seems Washington fans have the "What have you done for me lately disease."

                                                                          Every bad situation needs a scapegoat. Portis is wearing the hat now.
