This team is surviving on the ground without Portis and Betts.
Looks like the 28 and 30 year old vets may be looking for work in 2010.
The Redskins need to upgrade youth and speed in the backfield. It has been a need now for 2-3 years.
Betts was never the 'change of pace' back from Portis because Portis changed his running style to fit into Gibbs' system and they became the same player, albeit with Portis having better quickness and durability.
Betts is a guy who has been hurt repeatedly despite limited playing time.
