I wouldn't go that far as of yet, but yeah I was very impressed. He looked like he did in college - shifty and good vision. He'll definitely get more opportunities as the year goes on.

He looked a lot better than I expected. If he could learn how to pass block, I think he'd be the starter over Stacy.

Yeah I was happy to see he looks to have come on from pre-season. I also thought Robinson looked much improved from what we saw in pre-season as well so that's good for our running game.

I was impressed as well, he looked quick and fast and was running with a purpose. Want to see much more of him from here on out.

He looked very explosive. Hope he can learn blitz pickup better, because I'd love to see him get more reps.

I think he has a really bright future if he ever learns to pass block. You could see how much faster and quicker he was than Stacy. And the guy hit the hole with the same type of authority that Stacy does...along with that same type of great leg drive. I'm very optimistic here.

There's a future star RB every year. Remember Daryl Richardson?

I get your point, but Richardson had virtually no wiggle or shiftiness. He was able to make waves early because he would hit the hole and put the gas pedal to the floor, but that was the only move he had. Mason showed the ability to change direction and juke defenders in the open field.

My opinion right now is that if Mason can handle pass protection(questionable at best right now), he needs to get the bulk of the carries against Seattle. We need someone with his sort of burst against their athletic defense. The running lanes will not open up for long. Mason gets there before Stacy and Cunningham. That was the big issue I had with SJ his final two years here. He was so slow to the hole. Stacy, with his leg injury, was very slow and hesitant against SF.

He played like a solid starter for a few snaps but I wouldn't use such a small sample size to bolster bold comments. Offensive weapons are most effective when the defense doesn't know how they will be used. I want repeated performances before I draw a definitive conclusion.

We should use him like AZ did Ellington his rookie year. Then let him take over next year as primary and let Cunningham and Stacy battle for#2
