Does anybody here know if Jacoby Jones or Cortez Allen has the faster foot speed? I’ve heard people say that Allen would have caught Jones and tackled him anyway, but I’ve also read articles praising the fast foot speed of Jones so he may have been able to outrun Allen if not for the redirect caused by the interference.
Allen’s pretty fast. I think he may have caught Jones regardless.
Jacoby was increasing the distance between himself and his tacklers, until he had to slow down in order not to run into Tomlin. He kept thinking that Tomlin would move. It’s not as if Jacoby snuck up on the Steeler coach. He was running from a punt return!!!!
Darrell Green could have easily caught Jones. Still might.
