Gore catching on fast to Martz's offense http://origin.mercurynews.com/sportsheadlines/ci_9149375 The running back is the frequent target of passes, whether that means Gore comes out of the backfield or lines up as the slot receiver. Such versatility is how Faulk blossomed into an MVP under Martz with the St. Louis Rams. Faulk lined up everywhere, even split wide, and in 1999 joined former 49ers star Roger Craig as the only backs to amass 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards receiving in the same season. ...and Can a pass-happy offensive coordinator still make Gore the focal point? By way of answering, Gore smiled and turned to fellow running back Michael Robinson, who has the locker next door. "Do you think this offense is built around me," Gore asked. Robinson nodded his head up and down repeatedly as if to say, yes, yes, yes, yes. "It's going to be fun," Gore said.
