Portis to carry the Redskins' offense?

The Washington Times expects Clinton Portis to "carry the offense" in Redskins coach Jim Zorn's first season.
The paper expects Portis to be used "a lot," pointing out that Zorn's mentor Mike Holmgren ran Shaun Alexander 331 times a season from 2001-2005. That wouldn't be great for Portis' long-term outlook (he's already got 1,710 career carries), but makes him one of this year's safest late first-round fantasy bets.
