tool1215 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 He better run for 100+ and a touchdown because not only am i a redskins fan, but Portis is my starting running back on my fantasy team!! Hail to the Redskins!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinzRool Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Seattle's defense #8 in the NFL....FS The Seahawks have played some cupcake offenses so far(Jax #16, Arz #18, & Atl #22 respectively). Hell, even the Redskins are ranked higher than those three. I think Portis will run for 110 -120 with one 50+ yard run against them. I just hope at the first sign that the Seahawks try to put 8 men in the box to stuff the run, the Skins go playaction to a streaking Moss or Patten. That would certainly open things up. :seahawksu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoppa Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I think portis will start off slow ,because seattle's D has been starting stong but ending terrible. I think our offense will struggle at first but will get better in the second half and that is where we will get the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incrediblemojo Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Portis is due and this line should push the smaller SeaChickens around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonefishing Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Pass opens the run and visa versa, Portis can run if Brunell can throw some mo' bombz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSUskinfan Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Realistically, this guy will run for 250-300 yards against the Seahawks :laugh: Cmon. Let's be realistic. Portis will surpass Emmitt Smith's rushing YD total in the first half, then he retires during halftime. Betts then rushes for 400+ yards in the 2nd. Cartright makes a poor showing with only 200 yards. :logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanTheBeastTaylor Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I think 90-110yds i mean seahawks and the rest of the league aren't sold on our passing game they're going to stack the box like usual and try to make us pass. we complete some deeper passes things could be different and he could rush for 120+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their def is ranked #8 but they have allowed 108 yards per game (average). Plus, Atlanta almost came back and beat them by running the ball.

#1SkinsFan Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 100 + yds for this reason: the seahawks allow 108 ypg rushing. and if portis can run for over 100 on a bears defense, in my eyes which i see is better than the seahawlks defense, then portis should have no trouble finding openings and room to run. as long as the o-line is on the same page most of the game and does their job well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Dave Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 He will run for 128 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonefishing Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Portis get stuffed when opp. D stacks the line. Seattle will watch those TD bombs on film and double Moss if they are smart. This leaves one less donkey in the box all up in #26's grill. If the Seahawks respect our passing game, I think Portis goes for 110. If the stuff the box, throw deep.

Warhead36 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 This will be Portis's game to shine. I think he breaks the 110 barrier and finally get into the end zone, maybe more than once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever, teams didn't respect our passing game ALL of last year and Portis was still able to gain over 1300 yards. Pretty impressive. That said, Portis can get 110 yards with teams stacking the box so don't you think it's safe to say he can far eclipse that number now that we have a deep threat?

BRN2B8D Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 If Samuels and Jansen can control the ends then CP will run for well over 100 and get two touches.. If not it will be a up to his legs and a lot of pounding for 60- 90 yards.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams did not respect our passing game, I agree. Portis put up good number based on my standards. By his however, he said he wants more! I dig that. More yards,more time of possesion, D- gets a rest, We win. So yeah, if the 'Skins can move the pigskin in the air...then the holes should get bigger in the line and he should have a higher yards per carry average? The O-line is nasty.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Lamb Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I think Portis will Run for 75-110, and Betts will put in 50-60. As long as the play both backs as they had recently. If not I see portis gaining 110-140.:logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss_Hogg Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I'm predicting 100-120, the hawks cannot stop the run very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not it will be a up to his legs and a lot of pounding for 60- 90 yards.. I think that is a very sober, accurate, assessment. I've been bugging the snot out of my buddy at work, sneaking up on him and whispering; "it's all about the line play." The D-line has been openly challenged to step up. After 5 sacks at D I can't believe the O-line is not looking to make a statement. This, coupled with Portis' numbers last week, as well as Seattle's poor defense of the run leads me to believe that CP will light it up Sunday. And that's why I started this thread.
