Jim Brown Speaks Out On Holmgren/richardson
-
OK, since you asked Cal- at least to me Richardson doesn't have the 5th gear of a Tomlinson or Peterson, LOL I fixed it Cal
. That may be nit-picking. 4.5 speed isn't exceptional for a running back- there's more than a few LBs who can clock that speed. If you want exceptional, Bo Jackson ran a 4.2 the other two guys were in the low 4.4s, high 4.3s. That's the difference between being caught from behind- or not.
Of course I hope Trent's everything he's cracked up to be- and more. Mr. Hoorta*************************************************
I understand that a bit - but the other two rb's you mentioned don't have his power. It's a trade off I will take any day. He's still very fast. The .2/.3 difference is
almost insignificant to me, when Richardson is a powerful runner, and not lacking serious agility and all.

That 4.5 speed is during games with his pads on, he did clock a 4.45 at his pro day.

Cornerbacks don't try to tackle guys like that anymore PG. They just throw their bodies at the runners legs, hope they get lucky and he trips. -
Jim who?
