B Fan in LA Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Allen isn't even the strongest armed QB we've had on the Buffalo Roster in the past 2 years. Allen has a gun, Cardale Jones has a cannon If arm strength mattered, Cardale Jones would be our starting QB. And on the other hand, Tom Brady has done pretty well with his noodle arm............

You've seen the 1993 movie, Rookie of the Year, right? Josh will be fine...maybe even better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s thrown a few lasers. But nothing deep that puts me in awe of his incredible arm. Mahomes on the other hand has thrown some bombs that have made my jaw drop You haven't noticed that he has a strong arm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wppete Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Right now on the NFL I would say Allen, Mahomes and Cam Newton have the strongest arms in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalobillswin Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Yup he and Jamarcus Russel both had really strong arms! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The winds in Orchard Park are child's play for him. He has the 4th most wins at Rich/Ralph/New Era all time. Only Kelly, Ferguson and Brady's creator, Drew Bledsoe, won more there. Needing top end arm strength to play at New Era is a myth. Edited November 10, 2018 by I am the egg man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You haven’t noticed that every time he tries to throw the deep ball it’s seriously underthrown? If not, then I really cannot continue to argue this with you because you are blinded.

TigerJ Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I'm not sure that the arm strength of Jamarcus Russell was ever documented, but you could almost disqualify him since he was a total dud. Otherwise, I don't think there is anybody else who can match Allen for documented arm strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
targetweight185 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Allen has a rocket launcher. Cardale Jones has a cannon. Nathan Peterman has a .22. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, but folks need something to cling to in terms of a positive measurable coming from Allen's game. EJ had a strong arm too. Was also a big, strong, athletic guy who could run. Arm strength doesn't mean a lot if there's nothing to go with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen had a TD pass to Benjamin that I couldnt hardly see the ball. I also watch him throw the ball about 65 yards off balance. Now Ive only been watchin football for 30 years, but I have never saw an arm like his. Marino, Elway, Favre are close but not quite. Mahomes has a cannon but not like Allen.

But he has to learn how to be accurate and know when to throw it gently. If he isn’t accurate nothing matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
