They still caught up to him.

They timed him at 20.37 mph on that run. I don’t really know who sits there with a radar gun lol All I know is he ran 10.75 100 meters at age 16 in high school so he has good wheels. Maybe Alvin is twice as fast?? But I’m not a saints fan so I root for our guys

That one play proved his point wrong as CMC was over 20mph on that play. Hard to show off the wheels on inside runs with no space. Some people should just root for other teams at this point.

Actually you are wrong. McCaffery was the fastest player wild card weekend at 20.37 mph.

https://nextgenstats.nfl.com/stats/top-plays/fastest-ball-carriers/2017/18

You do realize that that measurement isn’t the sustained speed, it is the top speed somewhere in a play. That was also I believe McCaffery’s longest play. Same with Fournette. So, at some point in a long run these guys are all fast. To say this is way more meaningful than a 40 is wrong as this is a point in time speed, not a measured speed over say a 10 yard portion of the run.

Kamara top speed for the season was 20.86 and was clocked over 20 mph multiple times. And theirs this

And ironically  from the link you posted Fournette was first and second place all season.

 

The 40 is done in tights with no pads and you need to have your hand in the ground, so one bad get off and your screwed. If you think 40 time = game speed Idk what to tell you

  Are you still trying to use high school 40 times to judge a players speed 3-5 years later? This is how you came to the conclusion that Saquon Barkley was a 4.6 speed guy and much slower than CMC. 

  Fournette is faster thaN CMC. In full football gear. Which is all that matters. And the fact that Fournette is 30 lbs heavier is the main issue. When CMC stops getting “rag dolled” by DL, then we can make a comparison.

Fournette is a stud Cmc is also fast so let’s just cheer for our guy not the opponents ok?

  Why does discussing other players in a realistic manner automatically constitute “rooting “ for other teams players? Not just meant as a question for you. Seems that this is a fall back option for many on here when a discussion doesn’t go their way.

Well, you’re welcome. I’m happy to prove you wrong. 

He hit over 20 mph once all season. Lol

I’m tired of making logical discussion with folks who don’t like their own player and will never change their minds

 What logic? Show me the logic behind “he’s better because he’s on our team”. Or a 40 yd dash time from 5-6 years ago. Remember the last time you used that logic? 

   So we can’t say anything remotely negative about any player on our team. Is that the “logic” you speak of? Or is it just CMC that is off limits? Because I don’t see you jumping to any other players defense when they are getting  blasted on here. What are we supposed to discuss on here? How everything is puppies and unicorns and every player on our team is perfect?

ournette and Alvin but suddenly people say he is slower. That’s illogical and it’s not 6 years ago I maintain that if the three raced for 40 yards today he would beat both of them. Alvin was almost a tenth slower at the combine
