Go ahead...do it over and over again. He runs 40 yards in 5 seconds. Now fire up Madden 12 in practice mode with CJ2K at receiver at the 40 yard line. Hot route him to a streak and time him to the endzone on VERY SLOW. What happens? 5 seconds. However very slow is a little too slow for me. I will be playing on slow this year for sure.

He's clearly not running at full speed, as he's trying to set up a block. Then after he gets the block, he slows to pretty much a jog.

There are several 40 yard runs you can find by Chris where he's running 40 yards, in pads in under 4.5 seconds. Running start, which is what we should be measuring by anyway.
