Cap isn't kicking here (yet) but I'm pretty sure his legs will be moving far faster than 50 mph. He doesn't need to actually be traveling at 50 mph for his legs to be moving that fast.And in the end, Cap has multiple feats of blocking multiple gunfire. DS has ZERO feats of shooting fast moving feet.
Starting from rest, Cap has to bend at the knee and push off the ground to propel himself forward. I'm referring to the instant right after the bell. Cap will be moving slowly. Provide a clip or refer to a scene where Cap moves his legs very fast before the first second elapses.
Also, the knees and waist will be exposed, making the argument of fast moving feet moot.
I just looked at scenes from winter soldier and civil war. As Cap is running his entire waist and below is exposed. The shield barely covers his head and chest.

Even if DS fires several shots at once the shield is big enough to block them, it's not like DS is going to start the fight shooting at both Cap's head and feet.
actually Cap's entire waistline and below will be exposed. I just looked at a few scenes from winter soldier and civil war.

They don't know each other. The first thing DS will do is take out the gun. Once Cap notices this, he will draw his shield. DSo doesn't know the shield is Bullet proof, I guess he will try a few shots to the shield. When he finally realizes he has to change target, cap will already be running. DS dies.
it is understood that all shields are bulletproof. Forum rules state that each character has basic general knowledge of their opponent. That means he knows what Cap can do and his shield.
