BuffBills#1 Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 THere is an article on sporsline.com, and it's about the running backs talking about who has hit them hardest. http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/story/8772365 Steven Jackson, RB, St. Louis: "Lawyer Milloy. It was blitz pickup and I was a rookie last year, so he was going to test me. He came wide open and just gave me a nice one down the middle. He got me good." T.J. Duckett, RB, Atlanta: "Takeo Spikes. We played them when he was in Cincy and he just brought the wood. He gets the rest of his team behind him with every big hit. That says a lot."

Gavin in Va Beach Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Not much of a list if Winfield isn't on there. There is a TE for the Titans (think it was Wychek) that would tell you Winfield can really bring the lumber (from the opener in 2000). Probably pound-for-pound the best 'hitter' out there...

BuffBills#1 Posted August 26, 2005 Author Share Posted August 26, 2005 I agree, but Winfield doesn't hit you with force, he's more of a textbook tackler. I would fear Spikes or Milloy more than a little guy like Winfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eSJayDee Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 I would fear Spikes or Milloy more than a little guy like Winfield. F=mv^2 Velocity is more important than mass. It's slightly more complicated w/ respect to football contact. Where & how you hit someone definitely plays a big roll. The ability to generate speed in that small area and split second just b4 contact. Skill of course plays an important roll. I personally wouldn't want to have Winfield hit me & I've got probably 20 pounds on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon in Pasadena Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 F=mv^2 Uh, no. Unless you are perversely co-opting "F" to mean Kinetic Energy. "F" generally stands for Force which = m(dv/dt) for a moving object. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently better than that semester of Physics I managed to sleep through many years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, unfortunately, had to sleep through many years of Physics courses before deciding not to do it for a living. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
