Andre The Giant Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Sunday-at-the-Post-4562.html 2. Many people I talked to in the NFL were happy that the ‘Skins decided they needed more scheme advice than personnel advice. Bringing in Sherm Lewis to assist coach Jim Zorn was a hot topic. Lewis was working at a bingo parlor and had not been involved with pro football for five years. As one executive said to me, “As long as they keep blaming the coaches, we have a chance to keep beating them”. 3. Speaking of the Redskins, my evaluation of Clinton Portis (look at his stats the past nine games in the game matchup below) is not very impressive right now. He lacks the lower body strength and power to run through arm tackles, and one Redskins insider told me Portis spends more time in the GM offices than he does on the field.

Monkfan63 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I am used to this team being the joke of the NFL at this point. It no longer bothers me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMVSkins Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Portis knows he has maybe 2 seasons left and is trying to set himself up to take Vinny Cerrato's Job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p0rtis26 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Portis and Zorn are the symptoms... $nyder and Vinny are the disease (see sig). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benskins26 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Portis knows he has maybe 2 seasons left and is trying to set himself up to take Vinny Cerrato's Job I have a hard time believing he has more than this season left. He looks awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all due respect, how important is your evaluation of Clinton Portis? What do you do for a living? I'm guessing you are not an NFL talent evaluator for a living, so you must not be all that great at it. If you were, you would be one. I think super fans get a little too self-important for their own good sometimes. He's fallen all over himself and slipped on every other run from the minute he came here. No surprises there. He's better at blitz pickup than running the football. That's not a shocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 The fact that the skins think their offense is talents tells you all you need to know about the front office. QB - Weak Tackles - One is as weak as the other is strong. back ups look terrible Guards - One average the other weak. back ups look terrible Center - Weak RB - Old and declining. No change up back. TE - Strong and a good back up WR - 1st Wideout isn't good enough for the role. 2nd is unproven and under performing. 3rd is over rated. The offense is bad top to bottom. Just a collection of names the fans are familiar with and over rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter_R Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 That's pathetic. I can't think of a better word. Upon further reading, I have to throw this in. Jason Campbell has the third lowest TD percentage among active players:Lowest TD Pct. Active QBs, min. 1,000 pass attempts Attempts TD TD Pct. David Carr 2,223 64 2.9 Joey Harrington 2,538 79 3.1 Jason Campbell 1,254 40 3.2 Kerry Collins 5,822 191 3.3 Josh McCown 1,058 35 3.3 What's sad is that 3 of them are backups.

GoDeep81 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I think CP is about done too.. He looks beatup (ALREADY) and doesnt have the pop he used to.. He used to be able to overcome the weak line he has blocking for him, but ya can only do that, and punish your body, for so many years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jockey Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Agreed. My statement a week ago still stands. Clinton Portis is overrated. He is just a shell of the player he once was. If I could unload him tonight, I would not hesitate to make the deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grego Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 That's pathetic. I can't think of a better word.Upon further reading, I have to throw this in. What's said is that 3 of them are backups. true. while the last 2 are backups, they also have double the pass attempts as campbell and have never showed that they can be better. campbells TD production- and overall efficiency- has gotten better over time. so i'd expect him to not be ranked there in the near future. at least he wont be as long as samuels is healthy....

Don't be so quick on jump on posters when you don't even know why something was posted in the first place. An apology is in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
