Team speed or Lack thereof

slashsteel said:
He has always zeroed in too much on 40's. He does it with the draft too. As he was hanging on Greedy's nuts in the draft process as he loved his speed.

Many on here did the same thing a few years ago when the Steelers drafted Archer. It was all about speed. Nothing else mattered.

I wasn’t trying to poke anybody.. it just seems like no matter who posts something no matter what the subject, there’s always someone just sitting back waiting to respond in a negative way or say something condescending..I’ve been a Steelers fan for over 35 years and I know our roster inside and out from the practice squad to the studs and I have Steelers news in my google search and check it several times a day.. I read every article no matter the site.. if it involves the Steelers I read it...so I don't miss much. As you can see I don’t post very often, but I do know my ****. I read all the threads on here, because there’s a lot of good insight and for the most part, everyone is pretty plugged in to the state of the franchise. The reason I don’t post often is because of all the constant bickering.. like I said the sharks are circling every time you post just waiting to tear apart your thread or make a smart *** comment..I’m not directing this at Coolie, this is just what I see out of everyone on here. Only reason I posted today was because everyone was jumping all over Coach for his post. I interpreted his post not to say that our team defense was slow, but that we really don’t have elite speed out of any of the skill positions. So that’s why I posted what I did about Devin Bush and his 40 time. I knew there was about an 80% chance that someone was gonna have something smart to say about it. When Coolie posted what he did I got a little sarcastic, but honestly I have nothing against Coolie, I’ve never met the man in my life. I was just reacting out of the frustration of feeling like you gotta walk on eggshells every time you oust something here

Thank you for stating what most think but don't dare say. It's really a handful of people acting out a mob mentality that constantly attack a few people. They feel better about themselves because they can gang up on a few posters and I guess it makes them feel in power They comp[lain about poor content, yet the content they constantly bash is ON TOPIC and not nearly as poor quality as they try to claim. The irony, of course, is that they themselves are far more damaging to the overall quality of content because they constantly bash football content and make personal attacks instead of offering on-topic material.

As you said, it's almost all certain posters do.

We don't have "top speed" but JuJu has had two 97 yard TDs in 2 years. Ben also led the league in passing yards.

Cinci, on the other hand, has the fastest WR in his entire draft, John Ross. Yup, real speed. How has he and the Bengals done with that?

your opinion doesn't matter to anyone...so your "truth" doesn't either....

This is the truth...

I had no issue with your response to me. I hope you can understand from the back and forth on the topic of sources, why I posted what I did. I knew I had seen the same article you had read about Bush's speed, which is one of the reasons I found it so quickly.

We want all to feel welcome to post here..but there are a few who just annoy the masses. Pop is guy who has been here under several different usernames (currently bobby bufford) and trolls the board so that even when he posts something that might make sense or is football related, he is met with disdain.

Yes people can be sarcastic and take shots at each other which can make this place more entertaining. Don't worry about "poking the bear"..Mods don't ban posters for taking shots at them....hell, I usually deserve them anyway. Don't take the **** here too seriously, mostly it is said in fun and the guys are not seriously being mean...just amusing themselves. Hell this place used to be a lot worse back in the old days.

If you have something to say, say it. If you think someone is crossing the line, report the post to the mods (there is a triangle icon under every post for this) and we will deal with the issue.

Coach giving advice. I am not the put on ignore type. I am the you know where I stand type for better or worse. No worries the back n forth's won't last too long, imagine the Patriot puffs days are numbered. In the meantime I tell you what you can do if the back n forth's rattle you. You can just ignore it.[emoji3]

Jerry rice 4.71 40 but in Sunday Ronnie Lott said he ran 4.2 with pads on. 40 time means nothing with shirts and track shoes. Go ahead and take the fastest 40 time guy from each year then look how great they never became.

Dri Archer comes to mind on the fastest yet failed and Stephon Logan actually carved a return mans nitch out for himself but didn't do much else.




Salute the nation

I believe the 40 needs to change. You have to start from a standing start, and you should run it in the grass/turf, in cleats with shells. That will be the best actual game speed you will be able to measure.
