this is mane the best video i know of that truly showcases VY’s speed: that burst he makes when he turns upfield, and they way that he separates from the DB’s with warp speed is hard to fathom. he was Lamar Jackson in Josh Allen’s body. to this day there has never been another football player at any position to possess his combination of size, speed, and agility. truly 1 of 1. the fact that he happened to be a damn good QB on top of it was unreal and unfair. i’ll never forgive jeff fisher for taking that from us. fuck jeff fisher.
which seems to me makes it all the less likely that he’s going to have a career that lives up to this: it’s basically an impossible bar to reach. it’d be like if someone was talking about some HS senior or some 17 year old euro hooper and said, “he won’t be jordan or lebron, but i think he can have a steph curry like career.” i don’t need to know who this guy is to be skeptical of such a claim.
