[rockfan7224]

Mike Shanahan rules Ryan Torain out of SUN's game in TEN. Shanahan expects Portis to play. Laron Landry & Carlos Rogers still questionable.

Keiland will probably get the start, I hope we don't go with 2 backs again. James Davis?

That's good news. I would like to see CP get it moving again. Maybe a fresh CP in second half of the season can push the offense to get a lil better. Just hoping!

[Champskins]

Sounds like Torain will have/is having and injury prone career still

[Boots]

glad to see Portis back. Aparently all the knocks on Torain about not being very durable were true. Thanks for a decent couple of games anyway. :-/

I guess it is about time to give up on ole James Davis??? I hope I'm wrong, but seems like we missed a couple golden opportunities to get the guy on the field.

PLEASE INACTIVATE GRANDPA JOE.

i agree.. i wanna see what this kids got!

So I guess Portis will be riding the stationary bike this game? :thud:

Let Williams start and at least lets see if James Davis has anything.:mad:

LOL, that is what I was thinking. If he plays, what are the odds he finishes?

[Polo3]

Davis should definitely be activated, there is no way Portis finishes the game!!!

And I doubt you will this season. Unless someone goes down for the season, I expect he will continue to ride the PS.

[Champskins]

I see Portis being the 3rd down blocker for us, it only makes sense.

We need him so we can actually convert a 3rd down, what are we like 24 for 1000000 on 3rd downs?

K. Williams will be the number 1 unofficially

[Da Truth]

Why even pick up James Davis??

[McD5]

Nice cut on Betts Shanahan. We are thinnnnnnnn.

Pulling big time for the Williams/Portis combination this weekend.

C'mon McD, if Betts was still here he'd be injured as well, dude couldn't hold on to the ball and always stayed hurt from running into the back of his O-Lineman... Betts is better off where he's at, he had one good season with us....Trust me when I tell you our best RB is on the practice squad and thats James Davis, not sure why he's not being activated...

[J-bomb]

Where is Biz? Why isn't Davis activated when we clearly have 2 damaged rb's and 1 rookie as our stable going into week 11?

If he's going to be activated, this would be the time to do it.

I agree 100%, I'll place a call to Shanahan in just a minute to see if we can get Davis on the field...

[Dan T.]

Sounds like Torain has been derailed.

[santana_4_prez]

When do the Redskins leave for Nashville? Saturday? I hope tomorrow I hear James Davis has been promoted. Sounds like we'll be out some defensive players and maybe Hicks. Maybe there will be some room to carry 3 RBs (not counting Young as a RB).

Over/Under on how many carries before Portis comes up hurt?

Over/Under on how many carries before Portis comes up hurt?

He will only hurt himself when he slides before making contact

It depends on how the grass is looking Sunday

[santana_4_prez]

Over/Under on how many carries before Portis comes up hurt?

6.5

[Polo3]

Portis will hurt himself thinking about the first run...

[jnhay]

We have such a positive group of people here.
