[@robertbuchanan8736]

Bob Hayes, was the first human to run the 100 meters in under 10.0 seconds, when in the 1964 Olympic Trials for the 100m's Bob clocked a 9.9s in the preliminaries; Then they placed Bob in the worst lane, lane 1 for the Olympic final, and that's why Bob only clocked a 10.0 in the Final 1964 Olympics. HOW can you put the World Record Holder in LANE 1, unless you want Sabotage his chances, by putting him in the worst lane. If Bob had been placed in lane 4, 5, 6 or even lane 7, where the ground was more compact, more tight, he would have shattered the record to even a 9.8, even on dirt! How do we know this, because look what Bob did in the Come from behind victory in the 4X100m's, when Bob was in lane 6, as it was reported that his leg of the 4x100m was around 8.4 to 8.6, and remember, Bob Hayes ran on a DIRT TRACK. I will always believe that, the Olympic Officials purposely placed Bob in the WORST LANE FOR THE 100m Final, to slow him down. I will also believe that the

@@drobson8004 After adjustments are made for cinder track, shoes, lane position, there is probably no faster human until Usian Bolt. His 19% touchdown-to-catch rate exceeds Randy Moss, TO, Rice, etc. Hayes had a career average 20.00 yards per catch putting him 2nd, behind Paul Warfield (hall of fame) all-time for receivers with 300 more catches. Hayes's speed was unprecedented in the NFL and game-changing. He is credited for creating the modern zone defense and bump-and-run.

[@_Dave_S]

Great job on the video! Bob Hayes will always be one of my all time favorite Cowboys players, and I didn't even watch football yet when he played! He changed how teams covered receivers and helped put the Cowboys on the map. So many great players on this list. I loved TD as well, and Kevin Williams was so underrated. Thanks for posting!

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thanks for watching! Good post yourself!

[@kennethyoung4892]

Yep both zone and prevent defenses were developed because of him.

[@josebrown5961]

What made Kevin Williams “underrated?” I ask because that word is often misused and Mr. Williams stats are available, so any rating could be easily seen. Is there something about him that we can’t see or understand? His total career yards were only 2,314 with 7 TDs.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@josebrown5961 Having a player who can contribute in two phases of the game is highly valuable in the NFL, as most players don't achieve elite numbers and accolades. Just a small percentage of the league's players make the Pro Bowl each year. Team personnel prioritize finding players who bring the most value to the team, rather than those aiming for the Hall of Fame. In the 90s, Williams was one of those valuable players. In 1993, he ranked 7th in both punt return and kick return yards and tied for first in touchdowns. The following year, he was 5th in kickoff return yards, tied for second in punt return touchdowns, and third in kickoff return touchdowns. From 1993 to 1995, he consistently placed in the top 10 for both punt and kick return yards, as well as top 5 for total return touchdowns. Despite starting in 1995 after Harper's departure, he performed well with 613 yards and 2 touchdowns, outpacing Harper's first year starting in 1992. The next year, he struggled due to sharing targets and returns with other players following Jones's decision to utilize Sanders more as a wide receiver along with other players like Herschel Walker and Kelvin Martin. Ultimately, Dallas missed out on signing one of the top special teams returners in the league. Kevin Williams went to Arizona and led the league in return yards. Williams accumulated 5,707 total yards in his four seasons with Dallas, making him one of the highest non-pro bowl non-starter yardage earners in Cowboys history. He also has the most special teams yards in Cowboys history.

The thing about Tony Dorsett was like you mentioned, he could cut and move his feet while running at top speed. That's just something that can't be taught or coached.

@dwightlove3704 I read his 40 time was a 4.5. I'm not sure if that was documented or not. Here's the thing a lot of times you've got to be careful with so-called 40 times. Especially for older players. Unless they have a documented time from either their school or the NFL it's hard for me to validate a time.

[@michaell874]

Once again another great video. I always felt and still feel that no running back had quite the acceleration from a stop to full speed like Tony Dorsett. While Barry Sanders had tremendous acceleration, Sanders never quite when from stop to go because his stutter step was beyond the greatest of any running back ever. But Dorsett would basically stop and then turn it on unlike anyone I had ever seen. I believe Herschel Walker should be in the hall of fame, and he would have been if the Vikings had used him like they should after they had acquired him from Dallas. He was always one of my favorite players, even from his days with the Georgia Bulldogs and then the Generals with the USFL, and I did get excited when Dallas drafted him while he was still under contract with the USFL. That once again proved how great Tex Schram, Gil Brandt and Tom Landry was in building a dynamic football team. Had it not been for that move, then Dallas may not have had that dynasty in the 90s. I remember Alexander Wright was the one bright spot when the team was terrible, was a huge fan of Rocket Ismael since his days at Norte Dame, was too young but have watched enough to recognize the importance of Bob Hayes. When a player or coach does something that causes big changes in the way opposing teams do things, then that shows an enormous impact. The fact that the zone defense was created to defend against Hayes because no one was able to defend against him in man to man is just that. And of course prime time was so dominant that quarterbacks were too scared to even throw the football on the side of the field he was on. Dallas used to overload the punt return team on one side of the line as an unbalanced line to force punters to kick to him. They did that in the one Monday Night game at the Meadowlands against the Giants. Sanders might actually be the greatest NFL player of all time. I could make an argument for him against Jim Brown, Lawrence Taylor and Jerry Rice because Sanders was a quadruple threat. He was the greatest pass defender in the history of the game, was without a doubt one of the greatest punt returners of all time, was dangerous if returning kickoffs, and he played a little offense too, where he was able to catch passes or run end arounds. If I were a coach back then, I would have lined him up in the backfield as a decoy at times but also to be used to throw screen passes to.

Darrel Green started running down field when Dorset was running laterally towards the sidelines. He didn't catch him in a straight line run.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

You're right he didn't. I just added it in because of how popular that play was. Also, Dorsett was in his 7th season and had played in more games than any running back in the league at the point from all of the Superbowl and postseason games. I believe Green was a rookie with fresh legs. Green is not chasing down 77 Dorsett.

[@fabiancardenas6970]

​@thelogicalcowboy yeah I'm pretty sure Green would've caught Dorsett in 77 as well. I say that because nobody seems to be aware that Dorsett was caught from behind twice before Green did it. Both times were in 1978 when Dorsett was at his fastest. A guy named Clarence Chapman of the New Orleans Saints caught him in a regular season game and then a guy named Rod Perry of the Los Angeles Rams caught him in the NFC Championship game. Neither of those players were world class sprinters. Darrel Green was. Not trying to diminish Dorsett's ability, I consider him the most exciting back of all time. But as far as his top end speed, lets keep it real.

[@sundiata365]

Excellent video.

[@humbledriver2536]

Wow what a tremendous video. Speed does kill. I'm dying 😊

[@thelogicalcowboy]

It really does! Thank you sir!

[@RVRayRay]

Can't believe that Tony Romo never got a mention...

[@thelogicalcowboy]

😂 😂 I see what you did there.

[@SafeEffective-ls2pl]

How about Troy Aikman?

[@johnherr6062]

I agree I have his throwback Original 22!! Jersey.

[@mygtr2021]

Very entertaining! thanks for gathering all the data and classic footage. well done

[@randyjsing]

Watching Bob Hayes in the Olympics was very impressive. He ran violently fast for that time. With the shoes of today along with the track and running form adjustments could you imagine his times today?

[@comeon_man]

Man I remember having a Bob Hayes football card as a kid . It was a top feeling brotha

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Wow! If you kept that card it probably would be a tune of money today.

[@gmc5426]

🏈🌟📺👓 EXCELLENT VIDEO FANTASTIC 👏👏👏

[@RollTideRising]

Great list

[@gregorykrug8034]

Good video! It is a shame that Tavon Austin's NFL career never fully materialized. He was a Cowboy, and his top speed was probably faster than half of your list.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Austin was one of the most explosive players I have ever seen in college. He was remarkable. If he could've just translated that to the pros he definitely would've been a generational talent.

[@raymondperez2972]

Tony Dorsett ran through traffic changing directions faster than I could change my clothes. Incredible. Aloha!!!

[@gheechiedan9299]

Great job my man ! 😀

[@daveloncarr1698]

great video

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thank you sir!

[@Sldumas1983]

I just want to note when Deion was driving that little cart it was here in Austin Tx back when they used to practice here, Great times

[@thelogicalcowboy]

My boy had the AC in there! Question- did you ever attend those camps? What was is it like if you did?

[@MichaelHull-rq9fe]

Excellent Video... Agree with your selections. The Bullet Bob Hayes wow!

[@thelogicalcowboy]

The goat speedsters.

[@fluff2001]

First time watching your channel.. I was impressed with the way you broke down Tony Dorsett run with the change of speed and direction running style. I grew up watching Cowboys and remember Dorsett very well .... Only someone with pretty good football knowledge could have broken that down like you did ........ Good Job Dude ! If Cowboys dont do it this year, Dak has to go ......

[@topJimmyP1984]

I would agree with your rankings. Nobody beats the fastest human on earth, Bullet Bob Hayes, although Tony Dorsett is one of my personal favorites. I think your rankings are fair Thx

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thanks bro!

[@raymondperez2972]

Tony Dorsett I watched him play for Dallas with Roger Staubach as Quarterback at the helm phenomenal running back hands down. Aloha!!!!

[@jesseroberts9607]

I’ve watched them all but knew Bob Hayes personally as I worked with him he was a fine human being plus he the fastest sucker I’ve seen play the game.

[@armandomejiatakara818]

I love your channel for reminiscing. These days, It wouldn’t break my heart to see Jones give up the ghost without ever winning another Super Bowl. That’s for throwing Jimmy under the bus, saying he could win with any coach. Well, Switzer WAS any coach and he couldn’t have done it without Jimmy’s team

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Well said!! Thanks for watching bro!

[@Sldumas1983]

Great list, Very accurate

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Appreciate you bro!

[@charlie12gage]

Love hearing about the boys.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

I love doing the research. Thanks for watching!!

[@oldschoolmusic2710]

My all time favorite Dallas Cowboy. Bullet Bob Hayes. Hell yeah I agree with you

[@darylwatson1043]

Brah great job 🎉🎉🎉

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thanks bro!!

[@czechappy]

Miss You Bob Hayes, (Bullet Bob) He was my childhood idol

[@wadedienert5148]

Excellent!!

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thanks bro!

[@GreyBeard_Fit]

Great video as Speed Debates are always fun. A few tidbits on several of the guys featured in the video: Rocket Ismail: 2nd in the 1991 NCAA 55 meter dash (just over 60 yards)- 6.19. PR- 6.07 in the 55m dash Alexander Wright: - 1992 (6.14 in 60 yards on grass) & 1993 (6.19 on grass) NFL Fastest Man Winner - 1988 SEC 55m & 200m (indoor) Champion Herschel Walker- - In 1983 he ran 6.10 in the 60 yard dash Indoor Track - Carl Lewis won that race in 6.02

[@TC-bj8pu]

Totally agree! Great vid! Thx!

[@thelogicalcowboy]

You're welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@BrooklynPhenixRising]

Everybody is right where they should be. Great list!

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thanks bro!

[@nexus6999]

Awesome bro!!!!

[@randylochtefeld2806]

I know it is impossible to compare eras, just wanted to share the NFL changed the defensive pass interference rules in 1974 because of Isaac Curtis combination of size, speed, hands, and route precision made him uncoverable.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Wow! Thanks for the info!

[@tedwilliams185]

Good list

[@leonjefferson4608]

Dude you did a great job well done well researched You know I was always thinking Bob Hayes from the GetGo d ion number so you validated my thinking I forgot about Alexander right and a couple of those other guys like Turpin etc but nobody talked the game and then delivered like deion Sanders Bob Hayes was a quiet guy who came out and just rolled it he sacrificed his legs for the team on torn up hamstrings he would shoot up the cortisone and get out there and that ruined his legs but you know that's football I guess if you're going to be a track guy run football you got to be able to take the pain That's why most track people don't make in football because you got to be tough and take that pain most track guys are softies they'll say I got a little Nick I got a little pinch and then they sit down football players man if you ain't bleeding a pint an hour you ain't hurt any nothing get out there and play boy that's football was Bob Hayes tough tough SOB

[@elderdwaynehull5377]

I totally agree my brother.

[@razorkane5011]

I was so glad to see Bullet Bob Hayes as the #1, finally one of these lists gets it absolutely right. Sometimes the legends are forgotten, but not this time l!

[@drobson8004]

Great, accurate list. Well done.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Thanks bro!

[@drobson8004]

@icalcowboy The early 70's were a lottery of speed. Mel Gray, Cliff Branch, Gerald Tinker, Isaac Curtis. A couple of years later, Curtis Dickey, Roger Carr,. Also O.J. (he was part of a world record relay team as was Earl McCullough). 50 or so years later, their speed still stands up.

[@thelogicalcowboy]

@@drobson8004 Wow!

[@Longhorn.Rock_Roll61]

Awesome video my friend . I decently would probably put Bob Hayse at #1 just because he changed the way the defense play their defenses to a zone defense

[@thelogicalcowboy]

Yeah, he was special! By the way, anyone who is reading this if you like music go check out Longhorn.Rock_Roll61 channel. It's dope.

[@Longhorn.Rock_Roll61]

@thelogicalcowboy thanks my friend your videos rule !
