There's a reason Greg Maddux was never a flamethrower but still one of the most feared pitchers of all time, because accuracy beats velocity far more often then vice versa. Once you exceed a certain minimum capability, you can thrive with extreme traits elsewhere, its not strictly about power in any sport but powerlifting. -
He has done it before. Stand in and plant and step up into pressure making the throw. There was a pretty good play on Sunday where he was in tight quarters and hung in there. He did it when he came back last year. But in preseason he was bailing again plain as day. Hearing footsteps, avoiding being hit. I don’t know. He just doesn’t stick with it. -

The majority of the velocity on a throw is based around a player's core, so developing "arm" strength is really a function of developing one's ability to rotate the entire body, accentuate the transfer of weight over the hips, and apply that momentum to generate force on the ball. All of these things alter the placement of the ball and accuracy without thousands of reps to realign to the new mechanics. The hope then with young quarterbacks is that they simply grow into their bodies and that experience allows them to optimize their natural mechanics to eliminate wasted motion and with repetition expand both their power and accuracy.
