Did you know he ran the forty in 4.36? He was on the mm show tonight and someone asked him what he ran the forty in because he ran someone down from behind. I think Harvin?

Either way, that's one fast freaking safety.

Yeah, I noticed that. He's freaking fast.

I'm actually a big Collins fan and glad he's on the team. He's pretty solid.

Yeah, I knew that. He has run people down before. He is fast, and he has been hitting lately.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Yeah.. I was shocked to see him run down Harvin. Seeing as every other big return Harvin had (the 2 returned for TDs) Harvin burned those coverages.. I was shocked to see how slow Harvin looked compared to Collins.

Why is that sarcastic? When I saw him break the sound barrier and catch Harvin, I was thinking the same thing.

Collins has been arguably the fastest safety since he entered the league. For a ball hawking safety that's a good quality to have.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

I would just say with our luck he would get hurt from it, and you know how deep we are at safety. still he would be good, but would it be worth it?

Only person I've seen in a green jersey who looked faster on special teams than Collins looked chasing down Harvin was Corey Bradford running down a kick returner against (I think) Detroit.

Collins showed freakish speed there.

TheKanataThrilla (9-Aug) : NFL Network is broadcasting the game tonight, but not in Canada. Not sure why as no local television is showing the game.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.
