Speed Kills

[HarveyWallbangers]

Kind of interesting. Shields is undoubtedly the fastest player on the team. He cited Jordy Nelson as the fastest receiver. The article mentions Cobb's football speed--although I'd say he's more quick than fast. Davon House is also noted for his speed, and he cited Greg Jennings as the fastest receiver.

Would be nice if Thompson acquires a RB with world class speed. First thing I did when I heard that the Packers have signed Johnny White was look up White's speed rating on Madden. I saw "86" and I was like "fuck!" White's slower than Charles Woodson and he only as fast as Nick Perry.

I would guess that Jennings is faster in the first 20, Jordy is faster in the second 20.

i don't think cobbs really all that fast. he really doesn't seem to have the break away speed

however. dude goes from 0-60 in like 0.38 seconds. he seriously looks like it takes him just 2 steps to get up to full speed

Agreed. Cobb is more quick than fast.

I wonder where Collins would fall on the team if he were still playing. He used to run guys down all the time.

We tried Travis Jervey back in the day. He was very fast.

Would be nice if I acquired a pony for Christmas

LMAO damn that sucks about White's speed. Saine had great speed and hands on Madden, always subbed him in for screen plays.

collins was a 4.2 guy, he might still be the fastest if he was still playing

edit. i guess collins was only a 4.37

[Freak Out]

There is no speed like Madden speed.

Ahmad Carroll would out run all them fools.

Also Chris Johnson, the CB who ended up starting in Oakland for a few seasons.

I think Capers has made some comments this year about how "athletic" his defense is, which means, in part, that they're fast.

But I find that his defense is, for all its faults this year, back to stopping the run effectively. Perhaps that will become the basis for an improving, rock-solid defense as the year goes on.

For the most part, this years rookie class is quite intriguing. They seem to be making an impact on the defense already.

'81 Niners, I tells ya; but where we're going, we don't need Rhodes.
