No fing way. That guy is fast as ****. He makes SEC safties and cb's look like pylons.

So you think 4.64 isn't fast? It is, especially for a qb, he was running against a lot of SEC db's that run in the 4.6 range I bet.

Not saying you specifically, but I think many of us get caught up in 40 times & think that 4.3 is exponentially faster than 4.6. Sure it's considerably faster, but we're still talking tenths of a second. An elusive 4.6 offensive player can make up that difference & then some w/one quick move to get a defender behind him.

A qb that runs as fast as 4.6 is still pretty rare in the nfl.
