Arm strength isn't usually something they're wrong about. As others have said, it's fairly objective.

I never thought I would see Eason throw wobbly bombs. We all know that Eason had a strong arm but arm strength isn't a constant over time. The under thrown deep balls are a mystery. There are a lot of variables other than arm strength that could affect velocity. I think back to that day in practice when Eason had his shoulder massaged after a number of poor deep balls.

I agree. now...to everybody elses ideas.....in all honesty I was most concerned about the underthrown balls. However, I didn't check to see how far he DID throw them. It could be the receivers had more time than anticipated and just outran anybodys arm. I don't have time to go back and see how far he threw those balls tonight. maybe I can tomorrow. Could be under threw the receivers, but still threw the ball 60 yards.

I actually should have checked that before starting the thread.

I had forgotten about that, but maybe he does still have a dead arm, or maybe a pinched nerve?
