San Francisco 49ers is entrusting their offensive streak to rookie running back, Glen Coffee, in their upcoming games while Gore is still recovering from an injury he had during their play with Minnesota.
Due to the injury that the teamâ??s regular starter, Frank Gore, is suffering, the 49ers stick their hopes on their new running back for the next few weeks. While Gore will be spending some time to recover from his right ankle injury, Coffee will take his position and will control the offensive attacks of San Francisco.
According to Coach Mike Singletary, they will not be changing any of their techniques despite the absence of Gore. They trust Coffeeâ??s ability and that he can perform the 49ersâ?? tricks without any problems. Though Singletary admitted that the team will not be having one of the leagueâ??s best backs in their upcoming games, he is still confident that Coffee can take on the role.
The 49ers already looked for someone to be the back-up of Gore since 2006 when he became a full-time starter of the team. Fortunately, Coffee took the position just this year and is the only one that takes on the ball so far.
Coffee admittedly says that he is sorry for what happened to Gore and that he has a big shoe to fill. But because of these, he is more challenged to give his best.
As for the preseason record, Coffee displayed superb performance fit for the position he will be playing for the NFL season. He is already the leading rusher as he gets a record of 42 carries in 249 yards.
The team is planning to put up three active running backs in their next games. The players that will join Coffee will be the reserve halfback, Michael Robinson, and starting fullback, Moran Norris.
Norris mentioned that he really thinks Coffee can do the job well because of the rookieâ??s physical strength. He also added that 49ersâ?? fans can still expect the same game that they always do with the new running back around.
Coffee will remain the focus of San Franciscoâ??s offense until Gore fully recovers from the injury.
