Fastest WR tandem in the NFL?

My guess is Buffalo just because of Moorman.

BTW Stallworth is very fast, but Chad Jackson isn't even a starter so I would not even consider them a "tandem".

Brian Moorman was a track star in college. Dont know about Lindell tho?

Define fast. Some guys lack burst but have great top speed. Others have a great burst but lack top speed. Others have a nice balance between the 2.

Its difficult to say. Scheme also plays a role in how WRs are utilized, and the scheme used can either mask or exacerbate strengths and weaknesses.

[Jonathan_VIlma]

Usually catching the ball helps receivers though. They can be as fast as they want, but if they have the dropsies they aren't going to last long with Belichick.

it's probably the bills...Lee Evans is ******* fast

Jackson doesnt start "yet". He was a rookie last year and was injured alot. I think he will be starting soon, Jackson and Stallworth on the outside thats some speed to defend.

Yah I'm with the Bills as well. I don't think I'd want to have to run down either Parrish [slick moves and very fast] or Evans [pure speed and can catch] in the open field. When it comes to pure speed/quickness I think the Bills take the cake.

PS - Wasn't there a game this year where Evans had two almost identical 50+ yd TD catches. You know you are fast when the defense is already on guard for it and than you burn them again.

Not a WR tandem, but ashley lelie and vernon davis are pretty fast.

He had two 83-yd TD catches against Houston
He also became the first player in really long time to have three 75+ yard TDs in a season

If we all really want to know football speed, then how about getting a stopwatch and timing players from Point A to Point B. The 40 times at the combine mean absolutely nothing.

thanks for quoting wikipedia

[Man_Of_Steel]

Moss and Randle El
Evans and Roscoe Parrish aint bad either
To mix things up, Steve Smith and Drew Carter

Jackson will be starting as soon as he is healthy. Him and Stallworth with Welker in the slot, and Watson running the seam will be leathal. Our offense is incredibly fast, maybe the fastest in the entire league now.

Stallworth 6' 200lbs 4.25 40-yard dash.

Jackson 6'2 215lbs 4.32 40-yard dash.

Watson 6'3 255lbs 4.44 40-yard dash.

Btw, the Dynasty, Randle El, I believe, had a 4.5ish 40 time, but what he has is excellent quickness.

4.37 at the combine.

[Go_Eagles77]

Well it's not Reggie Brown and Hank Baskett.

[neko4]

In Houston
jerome mathis 4.2(though he doesnt start)
and andre johnson is fast isnt he?

Evan and Price
And if you include backups, Parrish is probably one of the fastest in the game.

is there a faster tandem?

Who cares!?!? Have you not noticed that speed isnt everything for a WR? You also have to stay heathy and catch the damn ball. You guys can sign all the players you want, but it wont help you get over that choke job against the eventual World Champs!!!

[indyfan1985]

And by the way, Brady now has NO excuses for choking anymore in the playoffs since he has a pretty good WR and TE core along with a good young RB in Maroney. How do you like that now Pats fans?? Manning had to face the "no excuses" critisizm, now Brady has to.

Colts still have better WRs than the Pats though even after these signings. Id take Marvelous Harrison and Reggie Wayne anyday.

Someone brought up the Jets...

No. Cotchery is by no means a fast receiver, and since his injury, Coles isn't nearly as fast as he used to be.

oh god another indy fan in a state of dellusion. Wow you guys won 1 superbowl, the pats have won 3. Better hope you repeat next year or Dungy is gunna retire just like Cowher, and ya'll will be one year wonders.

Who said speed was everything btw? Were simply talking about the fastest wrs.

This is probably one of the dumbest threads i've ever seen on this site... Just because a player is fast in Madden doesn't necessarily mean he's that fast in real life.
