Both tops in the league. Defense, offense, and special teams. Every Rams unit was built with the team's unique speed vision. So we want to know for example, if a DB can run a 4.37 straight ahead, can he play 4.37 with back pedal, plant, close and driving the ball. So we analyze speed a little different than most people do.
Players say it s a philosophy and a mentality that is transferred directly on to the field.
We try to play fast, says running back Marshall Faulk who is averaging 5.5 yards per carry and knows a little something about speed. We try to make things happen. We try to attack and we try to get after you. And with that it makes a team that much faster when they're attacking. You can be fast and not attacking.
