We settle the debate: Who are the 10 best QBs in the NFL?

[burrrton]

LOl so in other words you now know you wrong and instead of just manning up your going to be childish no worries go it.

Anthony, to be honest, I can't believe you're still missing it. Want to try again or just keep butchering the language trying to save face?

[edit]

Here's a question for you: would you be willing to bet a thousand bucks I couldn't wheel around and lob a football 30 yards?

I had a 90mph fastball in college, but I'm well over 40 now and was a SS, not a QB, in high school, so my arm strength will be nowhere near NFL caliber (if it ever was).

Thoughts?

Actually he's just correct. That play was a terrible example of arm strength on display. The only thing preventing other QBs from making that throw is many of them wouldn't have the agility to turn and throw to a spot where the receiver could make a play on the ball... but that has nothing to do with arm strength.

As long as they could make the turn any QB in the NFL could get the ball there from that same off balance position... It's tough for me to even imagine a HS QB who couldn't make that throw in terms of arm strength. That ball was up for grabs and the only reason it wasn't a terrible decision to throw the ball is because there is no difference between an incompletion and an interception in that situation... at least until the upcoming season.

You really need a more objective view of Wilson..

"Perfect place to leave this." wow you cannot even keep to your own statement. AS to me missing it nope I am not I said the play showed his arm strength you agreed enough said. You want to keep trying to back peddle? I do not know would you be willing to bet $1000 that you could not keep the play alive with NFKL players running at you and then throw the ball 30 yards with a player hitting falling back while neither foot is on the ground? I am guessing not as you would not last long enough to make that play.

actually he is not correct, again you are forgetting the throwing the ball the other direction while falling the other way, with a guy hitting him and his feet both off the ground, Sorry it does show his arm strength, there are better examples but it does show it.

No, I certainly *don't* think I could keep the play alive and "last long enough", but those aren't part of the equation for deciding whether someone has exceptional NFL arm strength, are they? Talk about backpedaling.

Further, contact was not made until the ball was away (to RW's credit!). We can all watch the video so quit making sht up.

So answer the question: would you be willing to put $1000 on me not being able to wheel and lob a ball 30 paces?

I will give you after rewatching it he was not hit before he threw it just about to get hit, however that still does not change the point that to throw the ball from outside of one has mark to the other hash mark while falling the wrong way, and both feet off the ground and about to get hit shows arm strength.Then you whole premiss is once again wrong. You are looking only at the throw it self not all the components like running one way and throwing back, or getting ready to be hit, or being off the ground etc. Yes even I could stand there outside of one has mark and throw 30 yards to the other side. But I cannot nor can most do it on the run towards one sideline, throwing back to the other, with a guy about to hit you or in your face, and with both feet of the ground. So again since you are unwilling to put up $1000 in the correct scenario of how things happened I see no reason to waste my time on your scenario since that is not what happened. Again thanks for admitting you are wrong. OF course since you already said "Perfect place to leave this." and yet you keep trying to keep it going I guess you will continue to try to make you obviously incorrect point.

[burrrton]

Hehe. Uh huh.

Thanks for "giving" me that, but you didn't need to- I and everybody else that watched it already knew.

Yes even I could stand there outside of one has mark and throw 30 yards to the other side.

That's not what I said I'd do, is it?

Again thanks for admitting you are wrong.

Thanks for running as hard and fast from my challenge as you possibly could.

[Anthony]

Nice try once again I said if you want to bet 1000 with the same conditions, nfl players running at you, after running around keeping play alive, running one direction out side the hashes, throwing the other way while falling the opposite way, 30 yards with both feet off the ground and about to get hi. You said no that is on you, you already admitted you cannot even do part of the play let alone the throwing part. You said no so it all on you thanks for playing but your still wrong.

[burrrton]

LOL. Thanks, Anthony. QED.

[Anthony]

LOL. Thanks, Anthony. QED.

Your welcome and thanks for realizing your wrong although I could have used the 1k
