I loved Austin pushing Ogletree ahead of him to make the block. Ogletree ended up getting in his way and may have been what saved the TD for Denver.
 
The return was amazing... we should see more of that this season. Easily should've been a TD.

Look at that man he's covering 10 yards to everyone elses 5, Jezus he's fast
 
He was directing 'Tree to block the guy ahead, 'cause the defender running parallel to them was already history if 'Tree performed properly. :lol:
 
It's like he's playing a different sport.

It really does, the amount of ground he covers at full speed is truly unbelievable! :omg:

I've seen speed before. What I'm REALLY amazed with him is how fast he gets to full speed. Did you see the way he burst through that hole? It's like he was slingshotted(is that a word?) through there.

Yeah, that's what I was saying too (get out of my head). That his stop-n-go speed is ridiculous.
 
Austin averaged 52 yards a PR tonight. Wow.

He's easily the best returner we've had in St. Louis since, uh, the Rams moved to St. Louis.
 
What is amazing is he doesn't seem to be at full throttle. He is effortlessly gaping the defenders while thinking ahead. Ogletree was just in the way and that dude can run pretty damn good for a LB! WOW!

And some people were saying he wouldn't be able to do that in the NFL.

WRONG.

I tried to tell people. There were some people on another site that actually dared to question his long speed. I just chuckled. The man makes everyone else look like they are moving in slow motion.

Anyone else see the catch he made where he beat the defender to the corner to pick-up another 5 to 7 yards? There are maybe 2 or 3 WRs in the league capable of doing that.
 
And the thing is, was Tavon really at top speed? lol man he makes EVERYONE look slow. It's truly amazing. It make me laugh when people call him a bust or a future bust. The kid has skills that just as long as he touches the ball, something huge could happen.

Yep, if he had another yard on the sideline he looked like he could have taken that one all the way, he's going to produce some explosive plays this season.
 
God that little dude is fast... looked like he was out for a jog during most of that play and still twice as fast as everyone. If Ogeltree stops and slows down the guy running behind them I think Austin jukes the punter into the endzone for easy score. But that's all right because getting to see Bradford effortlessly play pitch and catch to Cook in the endzone was well worth the extra play.

CAN'T FREAKING WAIT FOR SEASON!!!!
 
This part of the Rams game has been so bad for so long that I can't tell you how happy that return made me. Here's to many, many more!!!!!
