Dallas is obsessed with Slow one speed receivers

[Idgit]

Until you get to the playoffs and start facing better teams where the little things start to matter a lot. That's why you see the obsession w/ these things, because they are costing us games in the playoffs.

Stop good QBs from passing on you effectively, win playoff games. Not doing that is what’s cost us in 2014 and in 2016. It hasn’t been that other stuff.

Sure it has. Odd playcalling and poor clock mgmt were also culprits. It was both. Yes, our D was the bigger culprit, no doubt.

40 times are overrated. Finding that guy who runs a 4.3X 40 and can actually catch/maintain body control/knows how to run routes is quite rare.
For every Desean Jackson, there are a lot of guys who can't sniff the field.

Juju ran a 4.54 40 time. He didn't look slow out on the filed last year playing for the Steelers.

Look at the best WR in the game now. Not many of them had a blazing 40 time. More to being a good WR than just speed.

He didn't look fast either. Anytime I hear that about 40 times, its nonsense.
Slow 40s means slow on the field. 4.54 is average speed by the way. If you're quick, you can separate with that.
Guys who get deep with that 40 usually play In the slot like Juju did.

A scout said Julio didn't play to his 40 time in college. No one expect a 4.39.
WEll.. He's been fast his whole career.
It shows that scouts usually dont know what they're talking about.
Luke Keikly(I know its spelled wrong).
A scout expected him to run 4.7 to 4.8. He ran a 4.5.
IN the nfl, he's been very fast.
They 40s are overrated when it comes to Shady McCoy. Well he ran 4.5 and looks like it on the field.
When he gets a step on guys, he slows down to get them in front of him to juke them.
fast 40s are fast on the field. Dont mistake stop and start quickness with straight line speed.
Zekes been the only 4.4 or better starter the last few years. You see it on the field.
