    No QB can throw a tortoise open......
    If we look at every pass play in the N.F.L. this season through Week 16, and then average the top speed of each receiver across all of those plays, the Rams have the fastest group with an average of 13.32 m.p.h. The Raiders, at 11.96, are slower than every other team except for the Packers, who are more than a mile and a half per hour slower than the Rams at 11.74 m.p.h.

    How much of that is scramble drill? It takes more time to run a stop and start or sit in a zone than it does to cover the same distance in a straight line.
    No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.

    It seems like more a reflection of the speed of the offense. Might be due to a lot of short routes and WR screens due to the utter incompetency of downfield throwing by a certain QB who is worth a #2 and #4 draft pick, according to a certain poster from Texas.
