  A true burner for sure......Green was faster for a longer period of time and with pads on of course.

  The whole Raiders team was lightning. Bo was 75 speed. Sam Graddy was 63 with Gault (even if he was programmed to not be a good receiver with like 19 catching). Marcus Allen, Mervyn Fernandez and Tim Brown were all 50 or 56. I loved plugging all six in at halfback (screw passing with all this speed) and seeing if I could get all of them to be at the top of the league in rushing yards.
  
  Yes, I am a geek.
