Did ya'll watch the game last night with the Saints and Vikings? It was a good game as far as great hitting goes. I saw alot of good contact and a few de-cleaters a.k.a. "Roaches". Bush had a decent outing with 2 punts returned for TD's. It was a good game. Peterson was shut down severely.

They did the MPH figures for Bush as he ran back two Punts for TD's. At his fastest speed of 22 mph he was literally dusting anyone who tried to catch him. 22 mph is uber fast, especially to have all that equipment on. The fastest speed of a human running was set by Maurice Greene, who achieved a sprint speed of 26.7 mph. I would bet that Reggie can push it to at least 24-25 mph with no pads, and without having to be aided by steroids...

Another thing about Bush is he gets to his top speed in about 1.5 steps, were as it takes other guys 3-4. Same thing with Jerry Rice, he was never considered to have great speed, but he could get full speed a yard or two off the line of scrimmage.

It was a fun game to watch. Winfield is a beast. He had the best defensive game of anyone I've ever seen last night. 8 tackles, fumble recovery, forced fumble, sack, return TD. Plus a couple of huge hits. That one on the tight end was amazing.

I like Winfield because he is 5'9" 180 and takes pride in making tackles.
