don't know who could throw a football farther, or tighter...Russell, or Davey.


JR had a much stronger arm than Rohan. Not even close.

When it comes to pure "oomph" in throwing the football, realistically there are Jones and Russell, then everyone else.

Marcus Randall was interviewed in Tiger Stadium once and asked about all the stories about Elway throwing a Nerf football 100 yards or Bert Jones reportedly throwing a football out of Tiger Stadium from the end zone. Randall looked at the field, looked up at the upper part of that end of the stadium and told the interviewer, "I bet Jamarcus could do it."



He made throws like this, routinely (not always accurate, but distance)
