Best RB in the NFC East
Just wondering what people think? A buddy of mine keeps trying to say that JJ and Tiki are both better than Portis. Tiki is amazing, but I think that Portis will pass him this year.

Portis. He hasn't even reached his prime yet and Tiki will begin his decline in a year or two. Westbrook and Jones aren't even close.

Right now it's Tiki because he is the better receiver out of the backfield. Straight up running between him and Portis is pretty even. So for now I say Tiki, but soon it will be Clinton Portis.

I'd rather have Tiki for this year. After this year even Tiki says his future is uncertain while Portis should continue to get better.

Clinton Portis is gonna be the all time leading rusher when everything is said and done so I have to pick him.

Thank you for gracing us with your knowledge of the future. Clinton probably won't play long enough to touch Emitt Smith's record, few players today have the desire to play for as long as he did, especially at running back. I mean he already has 6,000 yards, he only needs about 10,000 yards more. Until he has over 10,000 yards please take it easy with the all time leading rusher talk.

Ha I voted for Westbrook even though I don't believe he is the best at all, maybe the best receiving RB, I just wanted to see him stand strong with his one vote. Now Tiki, Future Clinton Portis.

I'm a huge Cowboys fan but, there is no way Julius deserves a vote here.

What exactly does Portis do better than Barber?
The results of this poll are laughable. Portis by that much? Barber CONTINUES to be underrated.

Barber had a great season last year but I still think Portis is the best.

Barber has outperformed Portis the past 2 seasons. And not by a little.

Tiki is also 31 years old and Portis now has Al Saunders as his OC. Btw, Portis had more TD last year...

Stephen Davis also had more TDs than Portis and Barber last year. What's your point?
Right now...1 season...who do you take? I take Barber...he does EVERYTHING Portis does just as well, if not better, and has a fabulous track record the past 2 years.

Portis has had his two worst years these last two years, while Tiki has had his two best. If I'm picking one in an expansion draft, I'll take Portis just because of age, but if I want to win this year, I'll definately take Tiki. He had the second most combined yards in NFL history last year. Basically one of the greatest seasons by a RB ever.

I think right now it may be Tiki by a bit but I think that Portis will take him over by the end of this year due to Tiki's increasing age.
