DaleWillet Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Betts will be back this week, and plus portis will go, he might not get 100yrds but he will play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benskins26 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 He still looks shifty, like a smaller and less bulky Portis, in what I can see. I totally disagree. Alexander hasn't shown me anything. I think he could still get 3 yards a carry, but that's not that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Caretaker Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 pessimists are annoying, there like that little kid that keeps tugging you asking for ice-cream. CP will play, considering he is 50-50 at the beggining of the week? he will most likely play, he has basicly 6 days till game-time, he will play.

LuvtheSkins428 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 How does a knee sprain get worse on a bye week? Did he hurt it busting a move at Love Nightclub? :laugh: IMO, Portis will play. Perhaps Zorn doesn't play the games, but I'd bet he'd put out a report that deems Portis "shaky" when likely he will play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
localskinsfan Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Not only will Portis play but he'll score multiple times and we'll win! Ummm,If he doesn't play ...JZ will adjust the gameplan and we will lean on #47 and #89.If we can't win because of ONE player...We were never any good. SS,JT,CS all back I hear. If Betts and Portis can't go, Jimmy Z will just have to find another way to win. That's what good coaches do. I like the way you all think! Plus, with our new CB getting a couple of INTs, the offense won't have to score much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoney26 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Who is he trying to imitate, Bill Belicheat? Where in my post did I say he was trying to immitate anybody?? But it is a stategy that Belicheck uses and in my opinion, is a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWCREDSKINS Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I have little doubt CP will play but you never know, Samuels injury came out of nowhere. Without CP I hope Betts plays or we're in deep trouble becuase I have little faith in Alexander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Acre Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I totally disagree. Alexander hasn't shown me anything. I think he could still get 3 yards a carry, but that's not that good. Clarence Harmon, anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rskins91 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Obviously this is bad. Taking Portis out of our offense removes one of our biggest threats on offense. However, Campbell has shown he can play very well against Dallas, and their secondary is very weak. As long as Samuels is available to play against Ware, and Moss can be his normal self, the offense will still be productive, if only through the air. I expect Zorn to change up the gameplan to try and put things on JC this game. Let's just hope that the Defense steps up and a healthy Taylor, Springs, and crew will smother Dallas.

jfr3ek Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 portis will play...he is 100%. dont let the press fool you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitalDefense Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Portis just got off of vacation and doesn't feel like practicing yet. This is not suprising to me, he doesn't like to practice so he says his knee still has a boo boo. He will start Sunday I have no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 This is a HUGE deal if portis doesn't suit up. HUGE... I've talked so much trash to dallas fans the skins can't lose this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy&Gold4Ever Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 :thud: I know it's JLC reporting this, but this is really, really bad. It sounds like, even if CP plays, he'll be nowhere near 100%. This news ruined my night. This makes Santana even more important. What's his health status?

texasthunder Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 50-50 chance of Portis not playing per Zorn.http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3694288 What the heck is going on- Redskins.com new is reporting that Portis is 50-50 to practice this week. "Zorn called Portis a “50-50” deal as to whether he would be available to practice this week. The injury, a knee sprain, flared up during the bye week. “He’s questionable,” Zorn said. “We need to get the pain out of his knee and see how he progresses along.” But the news service say he is 50-50 to play sunday ??????

hobbie8046 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 You guys can say Chicken Little if you want, but in this case it is warranted. If Portis is out and Romo sits to pee plays, that is a HUUUUGE swing in their favor, and with Atlanta and Philly on our butts for the wild card, we can't afford a loss here.

DeMarco Murray 29 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 50-50 ... hahahaha. Right. It will be Portis missing practice all week, with the ultimite climax about an hour before kickoff. With the announcers saying "Portis will play!" Then CP runs for 120+, 3 TD's and it's all on some kind of injury. Portis will not miss this game. I guarantee my board membership that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
