Sorry, but to be honest, I never made it to the last sentence of your previous post. The fact that you insist upon posting in all lowercase makes your posts mostly unreadable. Nothing personal, but it is very hard to take anyone seriously when they can't take the time to punctuate properly.

so he has a lack of leg strength then... or he is letting is leak out on him... got it.

Either way he has sucked at delivering the deep ball this year, and I don't care who says it but a 15 yard throw is no way to measure arm strength.

Bottom line:
Start connecting on the deep balls so I don't have to talk about this horse****.

Deep ball controversy is such a BS. I'm sure some of you would be complaining about Manning's short passes, crossing routes. Hey , he ain't dropping bombs!!!

Instead of talking about mental aspects of his game (stupid/brave decisions, trying to do too much) this arm strenght BS is really becoming one off the stupidest conversations on the internet.

There are actual reports of people (nfl people, scouts,..) who watch him practice, warm up and they never saw lack of arm strenght.

Drew has or had a cannon? when? I missed it and i watch him at Purdue a good bit. master of short to mid range passes. always has been and always will be. i hate articles like this. he still has enough zip on the ball to get the job done.

Amen, accuracy has always been his greatest weapon.

Apparently you didn't do well enough to read the article. This speculation in the article is coming from the fitness coach for Serena Williams.

Most writers/reports don't debate his arm strength since you can't quantify that, but what they do know is the deep ball is nowhere to be found this year. I haven't heard Brees being compared to any other QB in any of these conversations, but they do compare him to himself in previous years, years in which he was the best deep ball passer.

Let's not debate whether or not his arm strength is gone for whatever reason. Instead let's all agree that the deep ball has been an utter failure this year, because that is a fact.

I have read several articles over the past few months dealing with the decreasing number of deep pass completions in the game. The numbers are down all across the league. You can pick out most any QB individual and you will see the same sort of drop-off in deep ball frequency and efficiency. That's the problem with looking at one single set of numbers in a vacuum. You can easily arrive at the wrong conclusion as to the reason for said numbers.

Either his arm strength is in decline or we have the fastest WR in the world.To many underthown deep balls and to many passes behind the recievers. I could care less what the article says, I've got eyes to see.
