Cribbs was never the fastest, nor was Adam Jones and they are among the best return men ever; speed is overrated, sometimes.
Meh, ya you're right about the being our best returner part....... But that does't mean he is actually that good. Definitely in the eye of the beholder, but Erickson, imo, is just average at best with the new set of rules. Maybe under the old set it was easier to get his 20 yards at a time because he was able to make one cut and pick up what he could.
The new rules aren't going to allow one cut and go because of the blocking. It actually puts a kick and punt returner as a premium position instead of anybody that can pick up 10-15 yards at a time.
