That was one hellova touchdown run in the fourth quarter. The leap from the 5 yard line into the end zone was reminiscent of Ballard or Dixon.

I was thoroughly impressed with Perkins yesterday. He has really improved his vision and patience as a runner. He seems to be doing a better job at breaking tackles this season.

Going into this year, I thought running between the tackles would be his problem

So far, I see him slashing straight through lanes with one good hard cut and hitting the hole with some real explosiveness. He's not going down on the first hit, he's riding really low through holes, and he is running with great purpose through the first two games. I think he was pissed at how he played last year and he's trying to make sure it doesn't happen again. I like the way he's running and I really like this 4 headed monster we have at tailback.
