I hope this Isn't True , but It did Raise a question in my mind .

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Drew has always slightly underthrown receivers deep. I didn't really notice anything different this year. But who knows? This staff has shown a tendency to hide injury news from the media before....

Which scares me as he is getting older, armstrength deteriorates with increasing age and he never had a cannon to start with. Don't get me wrong, he gets the job done but what I do wonder is if that will continue.

I don't think it has anything to do with arms trength. I think he'd rather slightly underthrow it than over-throw it.

I agree he'd rather underthrow the ball because he is expecting his receiver to come back towards the ball which they didn't do this year for some reason. Graham was the worst at sitting back for a ball instead of coming back to the ball which led to at least 2 ints that I can remember.

Oh-uh! Here comes InjuryGate. Where is Graham when you need him?
