Cobbs coming along "Really, really fast"

[TheDon74]

by Edgar Thompson

The Miami Dolphins haven’t been the same without running back Patrick Cobbs in the mix.

But it looks like Cobbs will bounce back quickly and be as good as new despite a season-ending left knee injury suffered Oct. 12 against the Jets.

Cobbs was among many current and former Dolphins who attended tonight’s Kids and Fins Publix Shopping Spree, a signature event for the team that provides a holiday meal for 100 South Florida families.

Cobbs was all smiles and without crutches, to the astonishment of wide receiver and event host Greg Camarillo.

Camarillo hosted Kids and Fins last year shortly before he suffered a tear of his ACL, beginning a long, painful process to get back on the field.

“He’s impressive, man,” Camarillo said of the 26-year-old Cobbs. “There’s not a doubt in my mind he’ll be back to his full form.

“He’s walking around. He’s making me and Ronnie (Brown, who tore his ACL in 2007) look bad. We were on crutches still at this point.”

Cobbs, who had surgery on Oct. 14, said he’s recovering “really, really fast” and expects to be ready for training camp in 2010.

Cobbs said he’s rehabilitating every day at the team’s facility, along with quarterback Chad Pennington, who injured his shoulder Sept. 27 at San Diego.

Seems like we score more without Cobbs to me. Kick return game is way better now

^^^ To me, the wildcat looks like wildcrap without cobbs. He was in alot of formations, and also a really good pass catching threat.
Hell of a 3back, if ricky retires, cobbs is an excellent spell back to ronnie.

Good to see he's healing so nicely.

I wish this article was about how our pass rush was finally starting to come together really, really fast.

Or maybe one of our 5 receivers were starting to develop really, really fast.

Or our secondary was beginning to come together really, really fast.

Or... you get the picture.

He seemed to be a good and important blocker out of the wildcat as well

Good to hear

Our Swiss Army Knife can't get back too soon AFAIC

Great news! Its no coincidence the wildcat is less effective w/o him around

Great news. Cobbs was a significant loss (although he may be unnoticed or under appreciated by most). I'm expecting him to be our future running back along with Ronnie once Ricky retires after 2010.

I said this awhile ago, and was told 'It has yet to be seen'. People just either don't care to acknowledge the 'little things' he brought to the game or just don't get it.

Glad to hear he is on schedule...and doing well. What made MIA special in the run game was the 3 headed monster...now its more wear and tear on the remaining 2 imo.
