CP's goal this season

[skins111111]

I was just listening to Larry Micheal interviewing Ernest Byner and he stated that Clinton and his goal is for 2000 rushing yards this season plus some recieving yards on the side.......I predicted 2000 all purpose yadrs earlier but maybe I was not being optimistic enough.:)

[MoeRedskins]

2,000 rushing yards? Thats it. Weak.

[redwolf1218]

i dont care how many yards he gets as long as he gets superbowl mvp.

[CNYSkinFan]

Too bad we didn't trade CP away for Ricky Williams.......

ok ok even I can't sell that bag of crap.

[smoak]

This is the type mentality that soured me to Portis when he first joined the Redskins. He talked about leading the team in recptions as well. At the end of the day, talk is still cheap.

I want the Clinton Portis who showed up in weeks 11-17 last season. Than man is nearly unstoppable and didn't tell peopple what he was going to do.

[bantu]

2,000 rushing yards? Thats it. Weak.

According to your sig, all saracstic comments will be in italics, right??:lol1:

I love CP a lot, those Miami players are easy to cheer for. 2000 sounds good to me!!

[redwolf1218]

actually we traded Ricky away for CP, in a way. we got Champ after trading away the Ricky Williams pick to Ditka, then sent Champ to Denver for CP.

[akhhorus]

Well, not to get picky, but the net trade was: the #6 pick in 1997 for Portis and Samuels.

[redwolf1218]

Well, not to get picky, but the net trade was: the #6 pick in 1997 for Portis and Samuels.
pretty good deal. wasnt that Casserly's last deal? i think it was because that following year first round pick which turned out to be Samuels was when Vinny came to town i think. oh well, it's probably the only good deal Casserly ever made while he was here.

I thought we were out of the talking about what we were going to do and just do it.

[whistleandthumb]

2000 yards is going to be tough in what could be a very pass-happy offense, though Larry Johnson nearly did it in 8 games last year. If Portis can average close to 100 yards/game and about 25 carries, I'd be THRILLED.

[Skinz4lyfe]

So his goal is 2000 yards. Good for him and good for us. He has never been the player to put his personal goals ahead of the team goals. Would you rather him say that he doesn't have personal goals? I think the end result will be Portis rushing for about the same as last year with a slightly higher YPC this year.

Oops, I missed that. Thanks for the reminder.

[DoGood]

We won't need Clinton to go for 2,000 but I do see a 2006/07 MVP in his future with Saunders' souped up offense.

[Meatsnack]

Clinton is a warrior. He wants to be the guy who drives the offense and gives that consistent second and third and short to set up the deep strike. If says he wants 2,000 yards this season, then power. I love it. Go get 'em, Clinton.

BTW, if George Clinton is Dr. Funkenstein, is Clinton Portis Dr. Rushenstein?

[joethefan]

We won't need Clinton to go for 2,000 but I do see a 2006/07 MVP in his future with Sanders' souped up offense.

I want clinton to make sure the shows up every week..and assisit the offense in ultimately lead us to the SB.

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

if CP rushes for 2,000 yards, we will be super bowl champs.

[Red Bear]

if CP rushes for 2,000 yards, we will be super bowl champs.

i dunno, CP has yet to prove he can show up in a playoff game

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

i dunno, CP has yet to prove he can show up in a playoff game
that statement can also be read like this:

i dunno, the entire offense has yet to prove it can show up in a playoff game

[Keino]

You must've missed that bone crushing block he put on Shelton Quarles in the playoff WIN against Tampa.

Meatsnack, that may be the best line I've read all day......Dr. Rushenstein.

[smoak]

if CP rushes for 2,000 yards, we will be super bowl champs.

See I worry about the wear and tear on his body. Individual statistics are for losers and the Manning family. I never hear anyone on the Patriots or Steelers come out and say "I want to achieve this statisitic".

[InsomniaKiller]

It's already a given that Clinton is a freaking warrior and the backbone of our offense. He doesn't get nearly enough credit outside of Washington for bringing everything he's got to every game and laying down ridiculous blocks for Brunell and anybody else he's asked to block for.

I can't believe people are trying to find fault with what he's saying. Yes, we know, the team comes first. We want him to show up and play his guts out and do whatever it takes to help the team win.

But he's already proven that he does that. Consistently. Every single game.

Anything else he says he wants to do is just a little somethin'-somethin' extra.

He never has to prove another thing to me. I'm sold on him spending the rest of his career here. He's shown that his heart and head are all in the right place.

[BigPlayJay]

This is the type mentality that soured me to Portis when he first joined the Redskins. He talked about leading the team in recptions as well. At the end of the day, talk is still cheap.

In all fairness CP and his position coach discussed it among themselves, Byner is the one who made it public. It's not like he pulled a TO and held court with reporters to brag about how bad he was going to smoke the rest of the league this year. I don't see anything wrong with setting a lofty rushing goal for yourself, I'll bet most of the backs in the league have a goal whether they say it out loud or not.

I seriously doubt CP will pursue this goal at the expense of the team. He has been 100% team for 99% of his time here and the heart he showed in the stretch run and the playoffs when he was obviously hurting was incredible. He's the heart of this team right now IMO.

[vabeach_skinsfan]

I think with AS new offensive schemes, its a good chance Portis can go over 2000, I know i'm betting on it. I'm predicting he'll have the rushing title atleast.

[thickskin]

i've learned it's not good for one's health to disagree with someone from north alabama...unless you're from west alabama, which i am, so, no, i don't think so. with our new receivers and saunders, i expect we'll see alot less box stacking until we prove that our passing game is as bad as last year, which i don't see happenning. i agree he'll have a higher ypc, but think he'll get the ball about the same amount of times, and will get a trip to hawaii by season's end.

[redwolf1218]

if he stays healthy then he should get what Holmes (450) and Johnson (1750) got together which would be 2200 yards.

[Red Bear]

You must've missed that bone crushing block he put on Shelton Quarles in the playoff WIN against Tampa.

one block doesnt mean he showed up rushing wise. portis had some great blocks all year long. and had a record setting season for redskins running backs. but when the playoffs came around he had trouble finding room to run. even in denver portis didnt bring his rushing legs to the playoffs.

that statement can also be read like this:


Quote:
i dunno, the entire offense has yet to prove it can show up in a playoff game

and yeah you can say that. but just looking at portis what, 3? career playoff games he has yet to show much rushing wise. i understand he may have been injured, wore down, banged up, whatever you wanna call it.

no one get me wrong, im not bashing portis. i love the guy and what he means to our team and what hes capable of accomplishing. i just hope he isnt one of those players who pretty much dissappears in post season play. kinda like plaxico burress is known to do.

[RAHenry]

If Clinton wants to set a personal goal to rush for 2000 yards that's not a bad thing, he would be the greatest Redskin running back to do that, hey I'm all for it.

[RAHenry]

If portis can rush for 2G's the pass game would be unbelievable that would open up so much in the offense, it would be ridiculus.

[RAHenry]

The offense will show up in the playoffs guaranteed sit back my fellow Redskins brothas and sistas what you are witnessing is the glory days in the making don't be like these critics in the media, for the critics make jestures like these. Have complete trust in what's going down in Washington (not saying that none of you do) this Franchise is back on track.

[RAHenry]

The guy had 53 yards and a TD, in addition to the more than one block, but that one knocked out a the Starting MLB, in a game against the leagues #1 defense that we won 17-10. He showed up just fine from where I sit. We had one WR in that game and he saw 8 in the box the whole game.

You are bashing Portis. Say what you want about his 3 playoff games, in the 5 games we had to have to get to the playoffs, he was the man.

[Fathead]

Heaven forbid CP put a goal out there so he gets held to it. :rolleyes:

[X-Factor13]

2k? i sure hope it happens!

[I Like the Cowgirls]

i dont care what he says like someone else said on here but i forget who and i didnt feel like quotin they said talk is cheap and they exactly right i could go in the nfl and say im gonna start more consecutive games than brett favre and people will think im stupid but i can think what i want and so can clinton. But i think clinton portis has a good chance of getting 2000 yards i think personally because the opposing team is going to be worried about the crazy recieving core we got and clinton portis is gonna learn to love the right side and run past a lot of people. But like i said wait til the season to see what happens

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

See I worry about the wear and tear on his body. Individual statistics are for losers and the Manning family. I never hear anyone on the Patriots or Steelers come out and say "I want to achieve this statisitic".
yeah, but when someone gets 2,000 yards, they are normally breaking some big runs, especially for touchdowns.

I gotta agree 100% with you here BPJ. I think we're reading a little more into it than we should. Joe Gibbs is a VERY goal oriented person. I wouldn't be surprised if, he had all the position coaches sit down with each and every one of their players and review their "personal" goals for the upcoming season. He would use this as a ploy to keep them focussed on the off-season program.

[Dept_of_Defense]

Oh my god, I just heard Larry Michael say, "off the hook!" when describing how good collard greens were.

[DoGood]

I agree

I've never seen such blatant post padding, ever.

I've never seen 6 consecutive posts in one thread by one person either.

In the two games he had against Indy with Denver, Denver as a team got freaking destroyed, annhilated, whatever. The entire team didn't show up. The two he had here the offense failed to show up, and he was pretty busted up too. Besides, it's not like the defenses were creampuffs, lol.

I agree... He has had limited playoff experience with lower level playoff teams. Lets wait and see when he is on a juggernaut squad like he will be this year.

P.S. Your sig contains atrocious grammar. Fix it, cuz it'll be funny when u do.

[redskin_rich]

Personally, I would like for the Skins to clinch early and be able to rest Portis some at the end of the season. I don't really care about his numbers, I would rather see him completely healthy going into the postseason.

[RedskinsVision]

More power to him but it's not like he needs to get any further up the record chart since he's already #1 in team history.

Im mixed here. If he has a shot to get it, then by all means....let him get it. The last 2000 yard rusher won a SB too.....

if gibbs can rest players he will. he doesnt care about individual stats. he cares about finding a way to win and getting the job done. remember last year when he even pulled ladell betts in i think the 49ers game and put in cartwright. and gibbs was quoted as betts asking to go back in cause he was close to 100 yards(he had like 92 i think) and gibbs told him he wasnt gonna go back in. if weve clinched the division and homefield advantage throughout, gibbs will rest players the last week or two. i dont think gibbs would sacrifice portis in a meaningless game just so he can build his stats, like holmgren let alexander do last year

You are 100% correct. A better example was when the O Line had a chance at 14-1 to set the sack against record, and he pulled just about every starter against a Philly team trying to make the playoffs

The last two 2000 rushers did, didn't they? Terrell Davis and Jamal Lewis?

I think a more realistic goal is 2000 combined yards for Portis. I think Saunders will get him more involved in the passing game, via screens and dump offs. I don't see Portis as a 2000 rusher. All the backs that accomplished that were much bigger.

[skins4oreva]

i would rather cp just keep quiet and do the dew instead of yapping at the mouth. make no mistake i would love to see cp gain all those yards but has he looked at the schedule yet? i think we need more than individual goals on this team; we need team achievements.

Yeah, it would be amazing to see CP run for 2000, but it doesn't mean anything if it just wears him down going into the postseason. I would much rather have a healthy, fresh Portis going into our Super Bowl run.

[bgforever]

yeah, but when someone gets 2,000 yards, they are normally breaking some big runs, especially for touchdowns.


i dont know. even when he played for denver, they were getting shut down as a whole as well. ill look his stats up later.


I think in retro, Gibbs knows that the difference is the weapons NOW on the team, as opposed to last season and the circumstances, less WR output in support of Moss, Thomas out, etc. Portis was the main focus, because he had to set up Moss, who would be doubled and tripled. It allowed an extra LB to shadow Portis the whole game, something that Larry Brown paid for dearly in the SB against the Dolphins in '72 season.

Portis should never have to look back now and no one should bear the load Larry Brown did in 1972- 1973.

[gibbsisgod]

i hope our team adjusts quickly to this new scheme and cp can achive his goal

[Santheb]

what, am i just supposed to take your word for it? no link or anything?

Uh yeah..

[skins111111]

with our new WR core, CP should see 6 or 7 Defenders in the box instead of 8
put that with Al Saunders offence and Sellers as FB and 2000 on the ground doesn't seem like such a reach,,,,,its only 30 yrds more per game than last year.....quite a feat but doable.....2000 all purpose yrds should be a give me

[Fathead]

what, am i just supposed to take your word for it? no link or anything?


I'll confirm that. TD rushed for 2000 yards.

If I were an opposing defense, I would make Clinton Portis my number one priority and make Brunell beat you. I don't think Clinton will ever see only 6 defenders in the box.

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

what, am i just supposed to take your word for it? no link or anything?
wth man? are you talking to yourself? :lol1:


i looked up clinton's postseason stats. though 3 games:

Year Opp Result | RSH YD TD | REC YD TD
---------------------+-----------------+-----------------
2003 ind L,10-41 | 17 68 0 | 1 10 0
2005 tam W,17-10 | 16 53 1 | 1 -5 0
2005 sea L,10-20 | 17 41 0 | 2 11 0
---------------------+-----------------+-----------------
TOTAL | 50 162 1 | 4 16 0

his teams offense has only averaged 12.3 points per game. in reality, its only 10 points since one of the touchdowns against tampa last year was a defensive score. thats pretty pathetic. i tend to think that if CP rushes for 2,000 yards, it'll be because defenses are playing back and worrying about moss, ARE and lloyd. if CP can stop slipping every time he gets into open field, he should be able to break some long ones, lol. if the line stays healthy and the team picks up saunders modification of the offense, i dont see why its isnt plausible.

[skins111111]

If I were an opposing defense, I would make Clinton Portis my number one priority and make Brunell beat you. I don't think Clinton will ever see only 6 defenders in the box.

when you start getting beat through the air and your looking at a 3 wide set (or 4 wide as Larry Micheal seems to think) you don't have much of a choice
unless you want to play Moss single coverage, not to mention Lloyd and El.
they won't be able to chance getting beat deep

Throwing in circumstances like that is tempting but you know the running game is Gibbs' staple.

Yeah I think that was Quarles. Portis went heads up with him and ended up across the goal line. On that one pass play, Portis went heads up with him again on a block and put Quarles down on his behind. CP is a tough cat, He proved his durability last year and the previous.

[Santheb]

I get it, and it's funny as heck.:lol1:

Hehe. Some people get it, and those that do all find it funny ;)

[meloveskinslongtime]

i got so excited when i heard that for two reasons: one, byner said it was a serious and stern face conveying that it was a definite possibility and they are doing everything they can to get there. Two, coaches rarely announce goals that high about their players.

I cant wait, everyone definitely had a feeling that portis was going to do very well, but 2,000 yards .... o man i cant wait

[thickskin]

Hehe. Some people get it, and those that do all find it funny ;)

i think it's funny and i have no idea what it's about. please explain.

Exactly, defense in the NFL clearly shows you have to suck it up, when 3 playmaking WR are ready to roll. You can't commit too many in the box, because it could be a 3 deep pattern for all or 2 deep and 1 mid range, let alone goal line play (which would be outrageous to commit 6-7 in the box and All engaged in one-on-one matchups).

[redskinz#1fan]

Don't know exactly how many yards he needs to get, but this is how many miles CP needs to get us.......:mfast:

If anyone can do it, CP would be the guy! He has brought a lot to this team in many different areas. I wish him the best, because it only means good things for our team. This is definitely the year to do it, with all of our offensive weapons at WR.

[the real moss89]

I don't care how many yards and TDs CP gets as long as we win the superbowl!!!:)

[robotfire]

It's already a given that Clinton is a freaking warrior and the backbone of our offense. He doesn't get nearly enough credit outside of Washington for bringing everything he's got to every game and laying down ridiculous blocks for Brunell and anybody else he's asked to block for.
