I noticed they are not cutting the grass again this year. For a speed team does this hurt or help us?

If you are a team that relies on speed, you want the grass as short as possible. If you aren't a speed team, than you want it longer cause it evens the playing field.

Are we not a speed team? I thought that was Lovies plan for the team.

We are not a speed team at all. We have two fast WRs and thats about the extent of our speed. We dont have a speed running back and our defense is insanely slow. If the grass really makes a difference than it would help us tremendously.

So what's our defensive speed? Mark Anderson (not the main starter), Marcus Harrison (not the main starter), Urlacher (out), Tommie (used to be fast), Briggs, Roach, Manning, Idonijie. Zackary Bowman apparently on some surfaces is capable of a sub-4.4 40 time according to a quick google by me. http://www.fftoolbox.com/nfl_draft/profile...rospect_id=1245

 

Actually, even taking Urlacher and Harris into account that still seems like pretty good speed to me. At every position we've got a burner starting and at LB we've got two.

I think we have different definition of burners.
