In training camp, the beat writers characterized him as a "violent downhill runner", and in pre-season he did very well, and was quoted as saying something like "the NFL is easy". Where is he now? I'm pretty disappointed with what he's produced. The reason there are so many forgiving people on this board is because we have an over abundance of die hard fans that generally can't see things objectively. There is a reason why the word "fan" comes from the word "fanatic". In any event, I'd like to see more production from him.
I agree with wanting to see more production, however, I will not rant and rave over a 3rd round RB that flops - win some lose some. We won with Gore (3rd round) and we might have loss with Coffee. If it is determined that the Coffee experiment was a mistake, he will be gone. Sing is no non-sense when it come to that matter. Trust me, we'll get another RB in this draft (Multi purpose type/returner) and he will either push Coffee to produce or out the door.
