Here to hoping he's a fast learner

he wont start in front of gore until he's better then 21... it's good for him he has somebody like gore to learn from

Coffee hit 100 last preseason as well.

I know I am comparing back up running backs but dixon looked more explosive today and better instincts than I have ever seen out of coffee. Dixon doing it in a game is that much more impressive than what coffee ever shown.

Dixon is the 2nd best RB on this year's squad.

This! Dixon damn near almost flipped the defender with that stiffarm. On a whole, Dixon looked great. Now we need to find a runner to be the third back and we're good to go.

Pee Wee is different. He's the real deal and will be Gore's eventual replacement.

Last year Coffee looked good in most of the preseason games he played & after that he stunk

hope that isnt the case for Dixon (but i will admit back up's or not he did look pretty good out there today)

i don't wanna make any assumptions off one preseason game because coffee looked beastly against the raiders in his first preseason game (what was it, 200 yards?). i will say that he looks a lot more agile since he made most of his plays on his own when the s**tty line broke down.

Totally diffrent. Mrob also looked like a beast. Both Rob and Coffee where running through holes the size of the grand canyon. Dixon is making it happen on his own.

yup

he showed great vision, quickness, he waited for his blocks and he showed how tough he is. i think this dude was a steal where we got him.
