He's at least as fast as Dalvin Cook on paper. Faster than Kareem Hunt. I think we can live with that. He's just a young rookie. Time and reps will make the difference. [Reply]
His speed is fine the line was getting its ass kicked for whatever reason some of you cant seem to grasp this. When your lone gets caved things will be out of sync it's like the guy who was yelling at Reid for not going down field. For alot of the game Mahomes didnt have time to. [Reply]
This game is so much faster than college. He was too slow finding the hole today against a better defense. He’s got to hit the hole quicker in this league. I see it improving and him being fine. [Reply]
Speed is an exponential, somewhat transcendental, thing that doesn't always conform to terrestrial definitions, human created time constructs, and limitations. [Reply]
The problem, if there is one, isn't how fast he is. JFC, Damien supposedly was good for 4.4xx in his 40 time, and this time last year he ran for a whopping 1.6 yards/carry.
The problem, as usual, is about the OL run blocking, CEH's vision and reading his blocks. Last week everyone was pulling each other's puds because CEH was averaging 10 yards/carry, but in his second start he only averaged 4 or so yards/carry. Well, good God Almighty, let's spontaneously give birth to half a dozen kittens right now. "CEH is too slow!"
