Portis back to his old self again: Clinton Portis has run for 514 yards so far this season, a better five-game start than he had even in his breakout seasons with the Denver Broncos. He's second in the NFL in yards rushing behind Atlanta's Michael Turner (543), and his 145 yards on 29 carries against the Eagles earned him NFC offensive player of the week honors.

Fantasy Analysis

Portis was considered on the verge of becoming an all-time great when he came to the Redskins in 2004 after back-to-back 1,500-yard seasons with the Broncos, but four seasons of Gibbs' conservative, grinding offense took its toll. His average per carry plunged from 5.5 to approximately 4.0, and his breakaway runs virtually disappeared in the nation's capital. Now Portis is again making a case to be one of the top two or three backs in the league. He's a must-start almost every week and that goes double in Week 6 as Washington hosts the Rams.
