Over 3/4 of the rb's in the NFL can break a tackle. Shady is a speed and finnese back, I don't know how else you can label him any other way.

The 1/4 are finesse backs

I label Shady as shifty

as long as we all agree that the label we put on him is extremely important.

Clearly reese's bias against finesse backs stems from his admitted homophobia.

ice grillin you

theres power backs
then theres finesse backs
then theres basically everyone else

hes certainly not fast enough to be considered a speed back
hes not soft enough to be considered finesse
and he doesnt run thru people enough to be a power back


shady is right in the middle of the everyone else category...he can break a big run but hes not going to run away from everybody...at the same time hes like 215-220 and is strong
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

He's a lot faster than you are giving him credit for, I think.

He's hit as low as 4.25 in the 40. 

Anyway, none of this matters.  He's a stud who made strides in pretty much every possible category at only his age 21 season.  He's going to be an elite running back, if he's not there already.

Who cares about all this as long as he's not gay?

lol

sure he has...on pitts stopwatch riding a bike with the wind

4.2 is elite speed for a back....hes certainly not slow and plenty fast enough but hes nowhere near in that range...thats chris johnson type speed

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Coming out of high school, he hit 4.25.  Maybe the muscle he's slowly added has slowed him down some, or maybe he just had a bad day at the NFL combine.  Either way I'm pretty sure he's faster than 4.5 and it shows on the field.

ice grillin you

lol..wait hes 4.2 now hes definitely faster than 4.5?...which is it and where did 4.5 even come from?

and i definitely trust a high school work out to give an accurate 40 time on a kid

Your reading comprehension is clearly awful because what I said was that he's hit as low as 4.25. 

4.5 is his combine speed.
