Madden Blog: The anti 100 speed view

Over at easports, which still doesn't have an RSS feed, an anti-Hester 100 speed post has surfaced.

And on that note, what about other players from past and present that have proven to be faster then Hester? What does this say for them? If they had politicked for a 100 rating that we’d just give it to them? What about Prime Time, Bethel Johnson, or the NFL anointed ‘Fastest Man’ Justin Miller who actually won a race at the Pro Bowl to be called as such? What about Rashean Mathis? Some may say that Devin Hester is more then just speed, and that he’s elusive speed. Well, then why don’t we just give him 99 speed and 99 agility? Why break the ratings scale, when in fact, we are going overboard on the wrong rating? I don’t have the answers to these questions, but I certainly argued the end result.
