From Cooley's breakdown of DJax's catch:
Quote:

Jackson makes the catch with four yards of separation at the 15. The ball went 57 yards in the air. While it was in the air, Jackson went from the 41 on the far hash to the 15 on the near hash. That’s roughly 27 yards in under 3 seconds.

27 yards, 3 seconds. Almost 30 feet a second.
I know he has issues - health, it's all about him, etc., - but speed kills. As I pointed out in the KC thread w/out DJax, KC yds/pass attempt is 6.5, with him it is 8.4. That's huge.
I will say it again: 27 yds, 3 seconds. Speed kills. Find a way to keep him next year.
