I thought that moment showed how mature he was, but it also showed how the front office and coaching staff had this team focused on a singular goal. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk |

Hardman is obviously very fast, but I think it's more top end speed. It takes him maybe 3-4 strides to reach top speed. Someone referenced the catch and run from the Tennessee game, but his long TD against Baltimore is also a good example. On that 3rd and 4th stride he just pulls away from the defenders like they are standing still. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk |

Tyreek ran the 40 in 4.29 seconds at the NFL Combine.
Mecole ran it in 4.33 seconds. Tyreek is still in his prime. If anything he might be faster now at 26. Once athletes get to be 28 or 29 then the descent can start but no reason to think he is slower than he was in the NFL Combine. |

It’s insane that Hill crushes Hardman so bad in the first 30 that Hardman just tanks it in the last 10.
If you ever watched NFL Films footage of Bullet Bob Hayes, this is what he used to do to people. Now add great hands, possibly-best-on-the-planet short area quickness, and high football IQ, you get Tyreek Hill. |

Actually, IMO Hill's ability to catch the damn ball(sick) is likely as big of deal as his speed.

Even when Tyreek “slows down” in 5 or 6 years, he’s still going to be one of the fastest receivers in the league. He might be an upper third speed guy instead of being otherworldly fast.
He’ll know all of the veteran tricks of the trade by then, so I think he’ll be productive for a long time. |
