Cam once held a strong top 5 spot in the league as far as Throwing power... Now these young guns seem to want to have a open duel to see who throws farther, Allen said its gonna take at least 85 yards in the air to beat him,while Mahomes holds a season record of longest completion at over 61 yards in the air... Take your bets....(its the offseason but this sounds fun)

I'd wager to say that Newton had the 1st/2nd strongest arm ever in the NFL when healthy (him and  Vick)...that dude threw lasers (sometimes unwarranted) and multiple 50-60 yard passes falling back off his back foot.  I've watched the Brett Farve tapes etc and people claimed he had the strongest arm, but I think Newton is severely under-rated.

People said Favre because he always won the arm strength competition they had at the pro bowl, so, it was true.

Cam indeed has one of the strongest arms in football. The greats have a strong arm, accuracy, and touch. Favre knows how to put touch on it but he struggle with accuracy as well. Flacco, Elway and Stanford have great long balls and strong arms as well but could never put it all together.

What separates those guys from greats are having it all. Rothlisburger, Brees, Rodgers have power, touch and accuracy. 

Of course no ones perfect but if I had to choose the importance of a QBs arm in order it’d be. 

Accuracy

Touch

Power

I hate to say it but Jamarcus Russel likely had a stronger arm than Cam.

As lazy he was, he had a rocket launcher attached to his shoulder.

Jamarcus Russell had once-in-a-lifetime, Bo Jackson athlete, type arm talent. God given. What a waste.

A lot of the time I don’t think scouts miss on the talent a player has. Sometimes it’s how that talent is harnessed.. either from laziness, bad coaching, terrible system fits or whatever. It isn’t just because the guy couldn’t play football.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By carpanfan96 · Posted

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.

      Because he won't be here next year, we aren't winning this year and we need to see if Renfrow or Horn can be that guy going forward. If Bryce isn't good enough to do poo without AT we need to find that out this year as well. I'm fine keeping him but his role needs to be slowly reduced throughout the year anyway so we know what we have for the future
