Favre and Bradshaw have both said that Jamarcus has the strongest arm they have ever seen.

... best known for armstrength before Elway

Soon that will be "before Russell"
The guy to compare JaMarcus to isn't another QB ... it's Shaquille O'Neal. JR will be a monster in the NFL.

Arm strength is arm strength. Says nothing about qback rating

I don't know if it's anybody of the four listed, (maybe Bradshaw) but it sure as hell isn't Vick.

Larry Allen, hands down. He did 225 43 times. He has a stronger arm than anyone else


last time i checked, benchpress is mostly a chest workout, not so much arms

I did see in the late 80's or early 90's of a world record (Ripley's-Believe-it-or-not)that he and David Frost made in a egg throwing and catch (unbroken) contest. It was over 110 yards. No bull. It took 25-30 throws to be made. Ubelieveable



new thread: who can throw an EGG the farthest??

FWIW I heard Mel Kiper say that Russell's arm was behind only two, Bert Jones and John Elway. I don't have a link, it was on TV. Jeff George did have a monster arm too.

For guys under 5'8, I'll take Herb Tyler.
