I would totally school Belichick talking speed and football, he's out of his league trying to talk this stuff. Trust me the guy doesn't get track speed in football at all.
You've never schooled anyone. Read the article, Belichick explains the numerous factors involved in football that can influence the raw speed of a sprinter.
There's a reason you spend all day on the internet living vicariously through athletes, musicians, etc. and it isn't because you're intelligent.

Deno......hey Bill who were some of those Olympians in the NFL?
Belichick.....hmmmm....Bob Hayes.
Deno.....yep.who else?
Belichick....ah....hmmmmm?
Holy crap!
You actually think your stupid lists are of any importance to anyone in the real world? You're even dumber than I thought.
Moss did run track at Marshall but can understand most not up on that he only ran one indoor season, but did win conference in the 200m not sure about the 60;.
I do believe he could have done something at 200 if into it. But he didn't and he was never the fastest NFLer based on.......nothing.
He didn’t run a season. He ran one race. 21.1 not exactly world class. However, on the field nobody could cover him.

Do you really think speed differs out on a football field? The fast guys are fast the slow cats are slow, I can tell you never played the game.
Belichick has no clue about sprint speed on a football field.

This all new to you I take it
As a sophomore in 1993, at the age of 15 years, Moss joined the track & field team and was the West Virginia state champion in the 100- and 200-meter dash with times of 10.94 seconds and 21.95 seconds, respectively. This was the only year he competed on the school's track team, but he would later join the Marshall Track team and lower his 200-meter dash time to 21.15 seconds. It’s worthy to note, as a track and field athlete, Moss was a state champion sprinter, despite barely running at all during the season.
Belichick knows nothing about sprinting and football, I gurantee that, If asked about footballers who sprinted he'd be totally lost, don't get all caught up with.......Bill Bilichick......the guy isn't a track and field fan like we are.

Reading comprehension must be new to you.
"Marshall" was talking about his college career and made no mention of his high school career because it was irrelevant to the discussion.

He was a state champ sure. But , he only ran 10.7. You asked for an example of football speed. Moss is an example of football speed. Another example is Jerry Rice. Also not a world class sprinter. But, he sure as hell found himself wide open a lot.

A sprinter wears a tank top, shorts, and spikes and runs on a hard surface.
A football player wears a uniform, pads, helmet, cleats and runs on grass. They also have to deal with the fear of getting hit and other factors.
There is no such thing as football speed, you have speed or ya don't. Why do you struggle with this?
I played football I ran track, there was no football speed, it was just speed.
Rookies sheesh~~~~
Deno you are in over your head here. Time to walk away before you embarrass yourself even more. Jerry Rice ran 4.71 at the Combine. Even if we say he had 4.55 speed, he had football speed. Jerry played fast. Just admit this is a subject above your pay grade. You cannot seem to understand this subject.
The fast footballer wil be fast regardless of whatever, a 4.7 cat is a 4.7 cat just that simple a 4.45 a 4.45 no matte what.
There is a reason a players 40 is so important, trust me nobody is,.......he's faster on a football field......at all.
First of all, football is not a 40 yard dash. There are many stops and starts and accelerations and decelerations, plus changing direction and agility challenges. This combined with wearing equipment that weighs enough to make some difference in speed, so that Lawrence Taylor’s speed probably is slightly less detrimentally impacted than a 180 lb receiver. I am surprised this is so far over your head Deno.

Unfortunately it is because you forgot what you were originally arguing about. You claimed there was no difference between track and football speed, and the experts explained to you why there is.

There is no 180 pound NFL receiver Lawrence Taylor could out run, this should be obvious guy.
