Bob Beamon was an Olympic long jumper out of UTEP, he was a 27 footer. When the Olympics were being held "up" there (7. 382 feet altitude). He would unleash a jump that shocked the world, keep in mind nobody had ever jumped 28 feet before. So there is Beamon way out there, talking way out there, after a good ten minutes ..........................29.2 1/2. WHAT??????????
But, it didn't stop there.
Histories first sub 10.00 by soon to be Dolphin Jimmy Hines Texas Southern
Histories first sub20.00 by soon to be Bengal Tommie Smith San Jose State
World records in the 400, 4x1, 4x4 and some other events.
That was in 1968 and we still have never seen anything like that since when it comes to WR 's in a meet.
Point....
Tyreek Hill (he could have made the finals of those 68 Olympic 200m) will never be faster, same with all the skilled players but it will totally suck for the big guys. Will we see 70 yards punts? 60 yard FG's. I do expect the altitude to be a very real factor.
Obviously both teams will show up early trying to get used to that kind of elevation. And Mexico City is not the place you want your players hanging out in. TJ is dangerous enought.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
James Conner even more than I thought he'd be. And it would be criminal to play Bell ahead of him IF he does show up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Patrick Mahomes has already started breaking Chiefs passing records.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nick Chubb already breaking Cleveland Browns rushing records. Jim Browns longest run 80. Chubb 92.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jason Witten needs to do his homework. He said..."the Niners have nobody to strecth the field" Totally igoring Marquise Goodwin the second fastest WR in the game. And who said.."Pettes was a good punt returner at Washington" ? How about 9 TD's an NCAA record.
