    The average speed your WR's moved over the course of the season is a pretty worthless stat. How fast your WR's can run is one tiny component lumped in with things like: How much press coverage does your team face? How much of their yards come after contact? How many direction changes were in the routes they ran?
    70% of the Earth is covered by water. The rest is covered by Al Harris.

    I have to go look at what's available on the methodology. For some of that (routes) they could make adjustments. The speed numbers could be an average of their top speeds during the game. Not the entire distance by time they ran.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    How much time was spent "fading" along the zone while ARod scrambled?
    I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.

    If just straight speed was the be all and end all Janis would be an All-Pro WR.
