There are quite a few things wrong with this assumption to come to that conclusion.

1) small sample size. There are more than enough plays to show speed assisting in making multiple blocks. You've shown one play.

2) Most importantly --- The halfback in that play is your fullback. The fullback in that play is a Asheme's halfback. This confuses me. Are you saying a fast fullback playing halfback is overrated, or a fast halfback playing fullback is overrated?

Looks more like some vision failing to me.

This example is using a HB at FB so there is an OOP to consider. Also I wonder how much vision and blocking the HB in the play has? Also the TE seems to be low on vision as well as he never got into the play.

Finally The FB playing HB which also has an OOP was too slow to get to the outside. The defense blew the play wide open by reverse pancaking the RT and RG.

same shit happens to my blocking TE on pitch plays. I run past the entire defense and just hang out down there before the ball carrier gets tackled. 64 vision with +15% bonus.

I was gonna pick on the HB for being too slow, but this is a much better analysis.
