Arm Strength Question

It's well before my time, but for some reason I recall hearing that Don Meredith could throw the ball extremely far in his prime...

 

80 yards on his feet 65 on his knees and 40 on his butt.

 

Thanks, I thought that is what they said, but I couldn't remember for sure.

:geauxtige :geauxtige :geauxtige :geauxtige :geauxtige :geauxtige

 

Actually said 85 on his feet, 60 on his knees, 40 on his butt... During Sugar Bowl

 

Back in '82, I could throw a pigskin a quarter mile.

 

Yea, I think Vick would be the closest. Back in the day, Bubby Brister could air it out pretty well, but he had a Canseco arm -- never really know where it's going.

:rofl: Nice reference, Uncle Rico. :hihi:

 

Say what you want, but the dude is the founding member of the 40-40 club.













:dis:

 

Of course he could do that, according to his book, he ran a 2.9 second 40 yard dash rofl: ) late in his career. Imagine how fast he must have been when he was younger.

 

Walter could throw it 100 yards.
