The last good returner we had was D. Gordon 10 years ago. So long as Hix can manage to hold on to the ball and not turn it over, I say keep him there. Some good special teams play would certainly make the offense's job a little easier. On a side note: congrats to #30, the most electric running back to ever wear the orange and blue!!!

I think we were on the right track when were talking about the Broncos drafting Thomas that he will be something special. Maybe our coaches aren't really novice Monday morning quarterbacks after all!!!! That was a bag on all you wavering non-Shanahan believers. THE GUY DOES NO WHAT HE IS DOING PEOPLE!!!! Plus, I don't think I've seen a Bronco do a back flip since Gerald Willhite. Now that is a sweet picuture.

You need to be able to turn direction on a dime, and he cannot. Roscoe Parish on the other hand, is very small and shifty. So is Hestor, so is Dante Hall, so is Darren Sproles ect. Has Tim Dwight signed with anyone? I watched Hixon up close at the Bills game, and I agree that he is too tall. You need to be able to turn direction on a dime, and he cannot.

By the way, tjames, this link should have a still photo of the backflip:

The AP photog happened to hold his ground; that's why he got the shot. Also, as for all the talk on Bloom (the former CU returner who made a bigger name for himself as a skiier before opting to return to football) ... it's interesting that the Eagles haven't called him back into the Christmas-tree green, given their ongoing runback woes ... although he was battling a toe injury throughout the preseason, which seemed to affect his explosiveness (and as we saw with Gerard Warren last year, can linger and affect production for weeks, if not months).

Is there any video footage of that? I have been telling my buddies about and was going to show them that picture but it disappeared. I figure some actual video footage woudl be great. He is a pretty exceptional athlete. Hey Mas I saw a picture on here earlier this week with Marcus Thomas in the middle of a back-flip. Is there any video footage of that?
