Matthew Stafford threw a pass much longer than 70 yards, but the Lions were playing the Packers so the officials call it intentional grounding ... it still hasn't come down.

I was discussing this on another site, and someone there thinks that it's very rare and that maybe only 2 QB's are capable of this. He didn't name which ones. At the very least, I think the following can throw it 70 yards for sure:

1. Mahomes (can throw it at least 80 yards, I believe)
2. Josh Allen (about the same as Mahomes)
3. Rodgers (I'm basing this off of that Hail Mary against the Lions)
4. Mayfield (I think I've seen a highlight where he throws the ball around 65 to 70 yards)

I also wouldn't be surprised to learn that Russell Wilson and Deshaun Watson can do it as well. I'm not sure if Roethlisberger can still throw it that far, but he at least used to be able to. I really wouldn't be surprised if something close to half of NFL starting QB's can do it. Who else do we know for sure can throw a ball 70 yards? Which ones do we think probably can?

I would say that the list of QB's in the NFL that can't throw the ball 70 yards is pretty short.

Jeff George had an incredible throwing arm but a poor temperament.
