lupin_iv Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Well, at least that's one stupid argument about CP that'll be put to rest. One down, several hundred to go. The offensive line actually played pretty well in the run game on Sunday, so hopefully they keep it up. I believe this is will be Mason's showcase, so I'm thinking he'll make the most of it. He should be on this team come September 4th, and hopefully no injuries force him back on the PS. If it does, he's outta here. Stay healthy, CP!

Bacon Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Too bad I won't be able to see this game. Comcast SportsNet doesn't work at my house anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackest Eyes Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Man, Brandon Lloyd really changed the course of the Redskins' path of the last couple years in more ways than one. :laugh: he sure did. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ucfSKINS Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 As long as he only gets a few carries, I'm ok with it. Lord knows we don't need more freak pre-season accidents. Here here! Please no more injuries! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicious Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I don't mind if Portis plays I just think we shouldn't wear him out. We want him to be in tip top shape for the Post Season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ucfSKINS Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Kind of suprised by this.Zorn has said that the 4th preseason game(@ Carolina) is when he expects the starters to get the most work. Figured CP would get his reps then and be done for the rest of the preseason. But hey, nothing wrong with getting him in there for a series. If nothing else, he can finally hit somebody that isn't on his own team. As long as he doesn't throw his shoulder into the guy and seperate it. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIXX99 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 It will be good for CP. I just hope it is a like one series though, I think that is all our nerves could take lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckus Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Probably happening because of Rock's injury. I don't think he will play at all on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paige3girl Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 one series tops. we can not risk injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOKU Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Now that is not nice. Where is he playing these days? The fart face plays with the Chicago Bears. I too hope he burns in his house. He cost the team alot of beatiful monies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsGuy Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I look forward to seeing Portis this Saturday. However, I don't think we will see much of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 50 gut left 50 gut right go to the bench. That's all the action he should get Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talk show host Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Considering Cartwright and Betts are both likey to miss the game, and Mason is the only other running back on our roster, we probably cant afford to sit portis. he's got to play atleast some. In addition, i'd rather have portis get reps against the bills at home than on the road against the panthers or jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrfriedm Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 It's been reported that Portis will only play in one preseaon game, if this is true I'm curious why he would play in this as oppose to the fourth game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
End2round2sanders Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Look if JC throws a pick n I were Portis n I saw the defender running my way. Id Just head for the nearest sidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPortJGibbs89 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Anyone think Portis will try and make a tackle if Campbell throw an interception....:laugh: I remember that Cincy game like it was yesterday. It started out great with Lloyd stretching out to catch that pass and I am all hyped up like hell yea Lloyd is gonna be awesome for us, and them bam Portis levels the dude and doesnt get up. I just had a bad feeling about the season after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 With Rock likely out, I'm guessing he'll get at least one or two series with 5 carries tops. Betts will step in for a bit and Mason will likely get the rest. I like it. Give the home fans something for their money and Clinton gets to hear the cheers again. Sounds like a win-win to me.

mrdoctor Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 dont put him in fiorst quarter. let him run on 2nd strings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NomadicSkinFan Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I like it. A few reps and that's it. He needs to develop timing with the o-line. Speaking of the o-line, I hope they open up more holes than they did last week. :doh: Umm... I thought the line did rather well in run blocking last week. I think at half time, we were averaging over 6 yards a carry. Later in the game we weren't getting as strong of runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlinginSammy HOF '63 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 let's not jump on Brandon Lloyd for the injury. Portis turned himself into a human missle to take out the defender when we had two TEs standing there ready to simply push him out of bounds. I'm as much a Portis fan and homer as abyone, bt let's not go that far. That's like blaming the weapon for a premeditaded murder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HigSkin Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Nehemiah Broughton and Eric Shelton (doesn't have a number!) are listed as RB's and should relieve Mason. On Comcast, Portis was surprised he was going to play and said he had to talk to the coach. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
