I agree atleast on paper... we haven't just seen him run away from people like you have with elite speed like Samuel..Anderson because of his length looks more like a strider to me. He's fast don't get Me wrong it's good. 

But he isn't that Ted Ginn..Samuel.. tyreek hill division of top 5% NFL speed.

Guys like Samuel have that quick change of direction speed.  Robby more that straight line speed.  DJ IMO is the perfect mix. 

I don’t care Marshall got caught from behind.  He isn’t suppose to be that type dude. 

was a more surprised with Chubba

I think that's a different aspect... thats like acceleration plus speed. What I'm talking about is is my top gear is faster than 90% of the NFLs top gear. For me that line is around 4.3 lower end speed. I mean 4.4 is considered fast by nfl measures..  when you get below that then we are talking gaming breaking speed. Anderson 4.36 is very good.. 

But he seems like he builds up to that speed. Like a strider.... he isn't twitchy or I catch it and I'm gone..  he has to build up to it.

Gotcha.  Yeah, 4.4 isn’t runaway from the field speed anymore.   Especially the way guys train to get their 40 time.  
 

Football speed vs timed 40 speed.  You can also have two guys with 4.4 speed and it also just looks different in a game.

To add to that for comparison sake. Terrance Marshall JR was said to have run a 4.4... and a 4.38..... you see how that looked today...

Hey if B.Zylstra caught half his passes that percent is near %75 completion rate...

Them two just couldn't connect for some reason...

And if some of the other receivers hadn't made nice plays to catch balls thrown behind them that percent would have been worse. 

We can play the hypothetical game all day long it won't turn PJ Walker into an NFL backup.

But yet today he played just as good as any starter in the NFL would have, except maybe one who didn't play at all...

You, my friend, watched a very different game than I did.

He had a standing start and Carrie was going flat out. Still took 30 yards to track him down.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
