Stafford posts a strike @ 99mph

[RamFanWA]

Damn - this looked absolutely effortless.
It is reported at 99mph - but sure doesn't look like it would have been!

Considering the average bloke can only clock around 40-50mph that is impressive.
(yeah, I know a football is a lot bigger - but that is good right there!)

No way thats 99mph… But it DID look like a strike.

Saw this earlier. Beautiful rip, but if that is 99mph, I'm randy Johnson.

So it's a celebrity 99mph.

 

[HE WITH HORNS]

He obviously could have been a pro pitcher, but no, that's probably not 99 mph.

Maybe they meant 99 kilometers per hour.

99 problems but the QB ain’t one

Hey Randy. How you doin'? Hope you're not still feeling bad about that whole bird thing.

Well... Being that he was Kershaw's catcher, I somehow doubt he would have become a pitcher. I suppose maybe - but...

The Rams front office having a little fun with Mathew...

The Rams' X account had a little fun in their estimation for how fast Stafford's heater was.
"Right down the middle," the team's account said in a post. "Clocked at 99 MPH."

Oh, its possible. My son can pitch really well. Better than all but one of the starters on the team. However, he is the best catcher on the team, and the second option at catcher can't hit at a lick. In his Sr. year, the situation will be even worse. The second string guy will be a freshman who can't hit or catch, unless someone transfers in. Lincoln's throw downs to second have been clocked at 83 mph. His fastball hit 88 in his Sophomore season in travel ball. His high school coach won't pitch him. He says he's too valuable to the team as the catcher. I could see that happening with Stafford.

Sorry for the shameless bragging.

He did make it look easy though. That's my QB.

... or 99cm per hour. Matthew can probably deliver a no-look 99mph fastball strike.

F'ing brilliant bro!

he'd have a helluva pickoff move, that's for sure

That would be 60 mph which is what it looked like to me

No way that was 99 MPH

I don't know, Tano. It looked good to me.... ~ Bob Welch
