Does Pickett have the arm strength to make all the throws?

    Was about to say the same thing. Roethlisberger was a godsend but no Bradshaw. Playoffs favor Bradshaw which makes him the best.

    Simple physics dictates that a ball with a lower initial velocity will not go as far. Deshaun is well below the top guys. :shrug:

    Absolutely. I always felt that the arm strength critiques of him was overstated, and not enough criticism for his throwing motion and footwork. I think we all can scroll through his tape and find instances where his throws that ended up as receptions in college would end up as INT's against NFL DB's. As the game "slows down for him," I think he'll definitely be able to get away with things more, just due to his ability to read defenses.
