Superduperman Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Jeff George Elway I seem to remember Warren Moon having quite an arm, but I might be just remembering how pretty his deep throws looked I don't remember Favre having such a huge arm, certainly adequate but not like George or J Russell Didn't Roethlisberger (in his prime, not what we saw the last several years) have a pretty big arm?

And I wouldn't change a thing Favorite Yeet Cannons: Jeff George Brett Favre John Elway Joe Flacco Jay Cutler Doug Williams Depends on what one is looking at, if it is odd arm angles and still able to get crazy velocity on the ball Jeff George and Jay Cutler are way up there on that one. Josh Allen I would argue has a better more powerful arm than Favre, Flacco, Doug Williams and Elway. Josh Allen's ability to throw rockets on the move is as good as any of them. It does depend on what one is looking at, ball velocity, difficult arm angles, throwing on the move or straight distance from the pocket... He did not complete many of these passes (mostly because the WRs suck) but it is insane watching the ball come off his hand, it just rockets off and to me he easily has one of the strongest arms in NFL history. This was at his pro day obviously but one could see his arm talent even then and it really stood out especially at the combine when compared to the rest there.

Could just flick the ball effortlessly 60 yards down the field. Agree Vick had great velocity on this passes, his overall deep ball accuracy and deep ball in general was not all that great though. Got better at that when he was older and more controlled as a passer though. Is not as fast or quick of an athlete but Anthony Richardson has similar effortless arm strength where at times it does not even look like he is putting effort into his passes and he tosses it 50 yards. 16 hours ago, Chiefs_5627 said: I was always impressed with Michael Bishop tossing a ball 85ish yards. That would be really interesting how Michael Bishop would be in football today where college and the pro game are way more QB run friendly and Bishop was a great runner and yeah he had a rocket arm. He was so exciting to watch play, kid could be amazing in the game today especially at the college level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could never quite put it all together and apparently he wasn’t overly bright but in 2007 he put together a pretty exciting season and got the Argos first place. But they went with the veteran HOF Damon Allen for the playoff game and lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I don't know why I didn't put Allen in the initial group I wrote down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeezla Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 The usual suspects are Elway, Jeff George, and Randall Cunningham. Then you got: Josh Allen/Doug Williams/Favre/Vick/Mahomes/Flacco/Stafford/Kap/Herbert/Marino/Cutler/Jamarcus/Boller/Bledsoe/Ryan Mallett mixed in there.

Jeezla Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Brady Quinn probably had the strongest arm. Doubt Elway could curl more weight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they went with the veteran HOF Damon Allen for the playoff game and lost. What I remember most from Bishop is his days at Kansas State. That K-State 1998 team was arguably one of the better ones in college football history but they did blow it at the end and lost to Texas in the Big -12 title game then lost the bowl game barely against Drew Brees and Purdue. That team had a solid offensive with McDonald and Lockett at WR and Allen who was a great return man combined with Bishop and a powerful OL. That D was something though with a super star safety in Cooper, and great LB play with Simoneau and Kelly then Howard on the DL and McIntosh on the inside who I think moved to OL later, solid corners also in Butler, Carter and Chapman and obviously a great kicker in Gramatica. Was a very talented team no doubt about it. QB Michael Bishop RB Erick Hickson / David Allen / Frank Murphy WR Darnell McDonald / Aaron Lockett TE Justin Swift OL Ryan Young / Randall Cummins / Jeremy Martin DE Darren Howard / Damion McIntosh / Monty Beisel / Joe Bob Clements LB Mark Simoneau / Jeff Kelly / Travis Ochs / Ben Leber CB Jerametrius Butler, Dyshod Carter S Jarrod Cooper / Jon McGraw Lamar Chapman K Martin Gramatica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabbs4u Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I'd take my chances with Mike Vicks flick of a wrist 60yd'r vs anyone. The usual other suspects Elway, George, Farve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hbky2j Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 (edited) crazy a guy like Donovan McNabb get's no mention in strongest/biggest arm's of all-time discussion's 76 😲in the air yard pass to win longest throw contest in the QB challenge for reference Brett favre who most would say has one of the most elite strongest biggest arm's of al time topout at 74 air yards winning the longest throw contest in game 60 mph pass velocity in game equivalent 97 mph fastball in baseball pass Edited December 19, 2022 by hbky2j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetterCallSaul Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Weird player name drop: Frisman Jackson, former Browns receiver. We would use him on Hail Mary attempts because he could throw it 70+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
