not true - chased him down from behind.

As I recall, Barron had the angle, but Shep outran the angle and seemed to think he could just coast in.

Barron came in from behind after getting beat on the angle he took and just outran him straightaway.

I don't recall Shep looking back after it became a footrace.

Shep just slowed down - apparently the initial burst of speed took it out of him to continue at that rate.

Randle did not outrun Barron...for an unexplainable reason Barron decided not to attempt a tackle on Randle inside the 10 yard line...he could have easily made contact even if he didn't keep him from scoring...that was pretty lazy by Barron


are you fricking serious? what an idiot if you really believe that. he couldn't catch randle is why he didn't tackle him. As for sheppard, i doubt he is the fastest person on the team, probably not in top 5. He has a great burst out of the gates and is very quick, but i imagine that RR, TT, PP and a few db's are faster than RS.

This shocked me


watch it again. RS has to turn as his run initially taking him to the sideline before slightly turning up. Barron has the angle the whole time.

Yeah and barron blew up his abs and groin trying to catch him at cruising speed. I think the RS turbo tank is about 45yds

I thought I saw him glance back to see if anyone was there instead of running full speed straight ahead.

Yea I was surprised. But I understand the defender is pretty speedy himself and had a good angle so that may explain it.

Dude, go back and watch the replay...Barron potentially could have made contact with Randle by extending his arm...there is nor eason to take personal attacks...this has been discussed previously with many people seeing the same thing i did

RS was concentrating more on getting the ball high and tight. and that messed up his stride.
