[tvturner]

Woohoo!

[RockThatBlue]

Terrible Tipton is finally gone. Glad to see boom back.

[PrincetonTiger]

Very interesting

[Mr.Debonair]

Does that mean anything for Gore's injury?

[SteelCityColt]

Very interesting

I second that.

[COLTS449]

Lets hope Gore's ok, But this is a good move. I'm glad Tipton's gone. Definitely an upgrade.

[Ja'Crispy]

Booooooom

[Bluefire4]

Does that mean anything for Gore's injury?

I don't think so. He only missed for rest yesterday. I think Boom was cut and they just thought he was better than Zurlon.

[JRnINDY]

Amazing this staff won't give the young guys more looks. Robinson should be getting carries before Boom is brought in.

Robinson learns how to keep the football in his hand instead of the turf, maybe he would get more looks

Same as Frank Gore, but they'll take a fumbling vet over a fumbling rookie any day

[krunk]

I'm cool with getting Boom back, although he's been known to lay the ball on the turf a time or two himself.

[bap1331]

who was the 3rd stringer again?

[SteelDragon]

Great move! Didn't like the way he was jettisoned earlier this year anyway

[TKnight24]

who was the 3rd stringer again?

Tipton

[Bluefire4]

who was the 3rd stringer again?

Zurlon.

[MTC]

. Robinson was given his chances and he was terrible. Not bad. Terrible. He's where he needs to be right now, the practice squad.

[akcolt]

Big upgrade over Tipton. Hopefully we are done with Tipton.

[Coltsman1788]

Boom is back? Exxxxccccccelllllent.

[Coltsman1788]

This goes out to our man Boom Herron...

True, but I remember when former Giants RB Tiki Barber had a stretch where he coughed up the ball a lot back when he played & he got better holding the ball high & tight. 

 

I think it's just a confidence & technique thing. Boom will figure it out just like Tiki did krunk. Your concern is a valid one though. I'm not dismissing it.

 

I just think Boom is too smart to keep making the same mistake over & over again. 

[twfish]

he has a total of like 17 carries and was thrown into bad situations and your calling him terrible? C'mon man

[CrazyHorse]

BOOM!! I hope he can make some higher-ups wonder what they were thinking! I like the guy........

[Superman]

Boom is much better than Tipton and Robinson, so long as he can hang on to the football. Glad to have him back, and always had a feeling he would be.

Glad to have him back in hopeful he will continue trending in the right direction with the fumbles. Boom does have some value as a runner and in the passing game. I also like the energy he plays with. Not sure how much pt he will get this time with Gore and Bradshaw in front of him.

[Mr.Debonair]

Gore gives you chunk plays, pass protection and is okay pit the backfield catching, to go with an occasional fumble.

Robinson gives none of the above besides the fumbles.

[DougDew]

He was waived by his former team, apparently not good enough to stick there.  Boom is a nice 3rd string RB here. 

[bababooey]

Only took til week 12 to get the three RBs we should have started the season with

[indyspeed13]

i like...

Thats what i was thinking

Better late than never I guess

[shakedownstreet]

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

His play was terrible, yes. Make excuses for him all you want, but he did not deserve to remain on the roster. The PS is the right spot for him. Maybe next year he'll be ready to go.

[buccolts]

Well, it's an upgrade to the 3rd RB position.

How he works out on ST, but not returning.

[ColtRider]

Agreed. Would like to see Gore & Herron on the North/South bound running trains a bit more. Stick to what works, and a tad more frequent.
