That's right baby, the mustard, mayo, and luncheon meat...........This backfield could indeed be something special.

Between Frank Gore and Glen Coffee, How do you guys think their carries will be split during a game?

i think that itll be like 70/30. i think that if gore gets 20-25 carries then coffee gets like 8-10. that might not exactly be 70/30 i dunno. but i feel like if coffee is still impressive in the regular season theres no reason to exhaust gore. keep him fresh in case were able to make a playoff push.

I know this has nothing to do with the Monster Duo that will be Gore and Coffee, but did anyone else see the block Britt Miller layed for Micheal Robinson it was a thing of beauty, i can only imagine how our run game will be if these three really jell in the next couple of years!

Fast forward to around 23 seconds and watch Miller lay that block!

RB coach Tom Rathman deserves major credit here. He has done a hell of a job getting Coffee NFL ready.

they both have VERY similar running styles. So basically we'll have a fresh Gore out there for 4 quarters!

I'd like to see Gore and Coffee in the backfield at the same time.

We've got RBs with FB mentality and toughness. I think in part to Rathman. Would like to see how Coffee's pass catching ability. Haven't able to see much of that so far. Nice to see former Niners player make good as coach for us

That's actually a really bad ass nickname! The best one I have seen actually since I joined the WZ.
