Zipping it into coverage or throwing off his back foot, etc. He has to strike a balance between trusting his arm, risk taking, and making smart decisions. The biggest advantage to having a huge arm ISNT how far you can throw it. It's the zip you can get on the ball in the 10-25 yard range Allen needs to clean up alot of footwork but what you cannot teach is the laserbeams he fires at the intermediate level. They are precise and they are super effective because the velocity he generates gets the ball their in a hurry 1

He has a compact , crisp fast release. The throw to Brown you are referencing was a legitimate big time throw that 95% of the league doesn't even attempt He threw a dart in between the cover 2 which takes serious arm strength and precise accuracy to a big time part of the field 2

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 It's a good sign that half the responses are not "hey let's sign that gut that caught the ball!" Must mean we actually have decent skill position players now. 1

Come on @Chandler#81 - you know that Barkley has the strongest arm on the team - you just need to qualify it a bit. Barkley has the strongest arm on the Bills for a guy named Matt, that played at USC and on at least 5 other NFL teams, born on 9/8/90, drafted in the 4th round, and has a career TD to Int ratio of 1:2. Even then he just barely wins, but it proves he has the strongest arm - so we need to cut him some slack. ??? 1
