Need advice about Clinton Portis!

Postby Boone » Fri Sep 25, 2009 7:27 pm

Portis has looked weak this season so far....he does have a great match-up against a injury-riddled Lions defense...but Portis is listed as questionable this week with a bad ankle.
Should I start Ryan Grant over Portis? I'm also starting Forte & Gore. (see signature for roster).

I hope I don't regret this decision.

go with Grant....they have an offense that can put up points.

i don't like the skins offense....especially in the redzone.

The Packers are playing the Rams and they have a horrible defense. Most likely Green Bay will be up early and easily win this game, meaning at least 20+ carries for Grant. On the other side, yes Portis hasn't been playing that well but its Detroit. The only problem, I've got a feeling the Lions are going to keep this game close and possibly winning it, meaning Portis won't be running as much as Grant will. Portis will still play like he should even if he is a little bit banged up, for some reason he usually pulls through. But I'm going with the worse team, I consider the Lions to be better than the Rams meaning more garbage time for Grant.

Given the matchup and Portis's health...GRANT is a must. In fact. even if Portis were 100%, I'd put him in over Portis this week.

Please help me back at:
