The thing with that is, were they both sprinting. I figure that DeAngelo was because I imagine that he had the ball. I am not quite sure about DeAngelo's speed. Remember the Raiders game where just about got chased down by that linebacker? Thankfully he didn't get tackled but I dont know.

DeAngelo is quick, I don't know if he's really super FAST but he's quick enough to get through the middle and fast enough to run away from most defenders. Smith used to be faster, definitely before he broke his leg, I don't think it's so much getting older. I think Smith has more endurance than DeAngelo does though.

Smitty actualy got faster after the broken leg... from all the training... plus he isnt that old he is a WR not a RB....

it dosent matter what postion a 30 year old man dont run as fast as a 25 year old..lol

ill bet my bank account smitty would crush jarett in a sprint.

we should be glad williams doesnt run as fast as smitty, its probably the only reason he dropped down to us in the draft. compare deangelo's numbers to reggie bushs in college, we are lucky the sports media is littered with morons who believe only great players come from a total of maybe 15 schools.

Williams isn't even close to steve smith in speed, when ever he breaks loose he is usually just barely escaping the clutches of the defenders, it's all he can do to stay ahead of them, he hits the hole hard but he doesn't really pick up much speed after that

when smith breaks loose he is gone, there is no hope of catching him,

he's very slippery and can cut with the best of them, not to mention his stiff arm is nasty, and then all the yards after contact...etc. this is plenty to be a good back in the nfl as he has proved

i think stewart could even end up being faster than him depending on if we bulk him up to even more of a bruiser

stewart is faster than williams..(zips up flame suit).

the problem is he would much rather run thru defenders than around them. if he doesn't see daylight, he doesn't bother. if there's a single defender in front of him, you can count on contact.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
