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

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.
