I've been thinking about this topic for at least the last two or so weeks give or take a few days, and YESTERDAY's performance has prompted me to make this thread about it.
The plays in particular that stood out to me were those two splash plays by Bilal Nichols, who is one of our newest fat boys on the DL. He was incredibly fast. Like freaky fast. Got the TFL literallly nanoseconds after the RB got the handoff. Incredible.
Akheim Hicks was pretty freakishly fast as well, not only coming up the middle but he was running around the outside with the speed of a much leaner man.
Bullard showed flashes of fastness too and also Goldman, who nobody really even talks about, was incredibly swift footed in his attack.
Combined, these four players are easily well over 1200 lbs. They average 4.7 in the 20 yard dash and 7.36 in the three cone shuttle. That's a lot of fat moving incredibly fast. I'm impressed.
Any other team have this sort of fleet footedness from them their fat boys?
I think not.
