So much of arm talent is accuracy so this gets tricky because guys like Brady and brees are accurate but they don't necessarily have strong arms

Mahomes has the best arm. Not the best footwork or pocket presense. Not the best accuracy.

Rodgers is best overall so I can see ranking his arm higher. I like his accuracy more but he is basically the Nfl Kobe Bryant at this point and not MJ.

theres some big arms, but like we were saying, touch, accuracy, release points, all factor in, the biggest cannon may not have the most arm talent.........

example big ben

example joe flacco-dudes got a cannon

There will be a curve to it. The older guys will have the touch, the younger guys will have the arm

rivers still has an arm hes old
If you're asking a Chiefs fan to defend Rivers then you're not going to get much positive feedback. He has sucked against KC lately

  7. Ben
  8. Ryan

The best arm by far is Rodgers.
The strongest arm by far is Mahomes.

Then the OP is a troll, because Wentz isn't even top 10.

That’s just stupid. I don’t know if you’re just trying to be funny or stupid. Wentz has a special arm. If you really believe this then you don’t know football. Is Wentz a Rodgers... hardly but he 100% is a top 5 arm talent. 6’5 240 and the ball explodes out of his hand.

I really don't know what the hell "Arm Talent" is other than it must not mean arm strength or have anything to do with raw ability. But it should be "Arm Skill" the way people are discussing it. Because touch and decision making in game aren't talents, they're skills.

I believe Kaep has thrown a football harder than any other starting quarterback. Is that talent? Or is that skill? To me, that's talent. Skill increases with focus, effort and dedication to the craft.

Was he the Nick Foles in that 9ers SB run? Or was he just a different backup in a different situation?

No, you are. His HEAD gets him in trouble. Question was arm talent, not decision making
Laser lock.


Out routes Fucking destroy his QBR and Lions W/L %'s.


And the volume on his throws is stuck at 11 usually. He breaks fingers like a madman. Even sidearm they're just 4 seamers. Not changeups.
