[QUOTE="PackersRS, post: 385220, member: 1429"] Which allowed Favre to put the ball in spots Starr wasn't able to. Starr, from the film I saw, was an amazing decision-maker who knew where to put the ball in each play, but he wasn't able to make incredible throws, exactly because he didn't have the arm strenght. Actually, in one of his biggest throws, he puts the ball behind Max McGee, because the way the Chiefs covered it, Starr wouldn't be able to put the ball in a better position, for McGee to run with it. McGee adjusted beutifully and made the play anyway. But if it was Rodgers, but particularly Favre with the way he threw slants, the ball would've been placed better (though it needs to be said that the ball that Starr worked with was very different). He even says so himself. He was amazing because he knew his strenghts and limitations. But Favre was a better thrower. Moon is another guy that threw the ball amazingly well... Having a big arm has a lot to do with it. It's that thing I've discussed with you before, not arm strenght to throw the ball far, though these guys surely had it, but the pinpoint accuracy, for those intermediate and deep balls, you need it.
