Yea, Drew never had a live arm but it wasn’t Chad Pennington weak. Drew had really good mechanics that made it look stronger than it actually was too

Yup. His throwing coach, Tom House, had him use every inch of his body to build torque. House says that the energy for the throw begins at the feet and travels through the body all of the way to the fingertips. Energy can be lost all along that pathway with improper mechanics. Injuries to Drew late in his career threw a few "speed bumps" into that pathway.

Do a little research. It's called biomechanics. Tom House's clients include the following:

Matt Ryan.
Tom Brady.
Drew Brees.
Andy Dalton.
Blake Bortles.
Jared Goff.
Matt Stafford.
Carson Wentz.

Dude I’m joking. It just reminded me of that line.
