Insane Jeff George Throw

He effortlessly throws a laser

[@SJM6791]

Jeff George had a rocket arm and a 2 cent head.

[@ricardolopez720]

Kinda sounds like Jay Cutler.

[@franknew9001]

I always thought that Jeff George had a million dollar arm and a 10 cent head. I increased it some due to inflation.

[@philrivera1163]

Physical talent was never a question

[@savejets]

His arm strength was absurd.

[@jackkitchen737]

I know he wasn't a great QB. But watching Jeff George throw a football is still one of my favorite memories in sports.

[@mr.brenman2132]

He had some good seasons.

[@phataguilar1724]

Jeff George was my Fave Gunslinger and he had a perfect spiral

[@rufuspipemos]

He had a cannon.

[@jonmolina948]

Didn’t even look like he put anything on it.

[@aaronalbrecht4404]

Best arm I've ever seen. The problem was knowing when to use it and an inability to put touch on the ball.

[@radar0412]

George Beat the Cowboys in the playoffs in 1999, and then unceremoniously let go by the Vikings the following season. His best team was taken away from him

[@x2bannedyoutubeaccount408]

Wow. That is a cannon of an arm

[@MalevolentElephant]

Dude could throw a strawberry through a battleship I swear

[@DavidMartinez-pg3zq]

What am I missing? It was a 50 yard throw over the deep middle. A great throw but Moss was wide open and the throw itself was pretty routine?

[@Jiang-]

@@DavidMartinez-pg3zq ​ the speed of the release coupled with the velocity and accuracy of the pass. Others could've generated the same result but not the way he did it.

[@DavidMartinez-pg3zq]

@CJ I guess I just don't see it. Looks pretty Normal to me albeit a great throw but it's nothing I don't see from Mahomes, Rodgers, Herbert, Allen, etc every single week. Or Marino, Elway, Favre, etc back in the day.

[@Xhoven]

@@DavidMartinez-pg3zq George didn't step into this throw AT ALL, barely pushed off his back foot and still effortlessly tossed it 45 yards on a rope. All the guys you mentioned have huge arms too, but they're at least stepping into the throw some to get this ball there. George's throwing motion looked like he should've been throwing a 10-yard checkdown.

[@johnharris750]

Berman's sound effect in this highlight so funny.

[@patrickbrowder6857]

Condolences to that corner...never stood a chance.

[@robertyates1319]

Dude had 4 1000 yd receivers on the falcons.

[@warrenpeece1726]

"Million dollar arm with a ten cent head." Or "Body by Fisher, mind by Fisher-Price"

[@mr.nibblenips4231]

1999 season?

[@accuserofthebrethren9240]

Yes. 99 was his only season with the vikings

[@RobertBalto]

I have to trick myself into thinking Jeff George was actually good in order to enjoy watching his highlights...but it's worth it because they're awesome

[@davidking6554]

One of the most talented throwers of a football ever seen.

[@Skazellino]

Zing! straight up lazer.

[@superlyger]

Strongest Arm in history?

[@Whoopdido777]

A lot of people would agree.

[@Whoopdido777]

@GIL Favor No. He made it to the playoffs twice. 1995 and 1999 and lost both times. Perhaps part of his undoing was that he was just on bad teams. He was on Indianapolis and Oakland for awhile when they both horrible and maybe he was just not that great of a quarterback/team leader, but he definitely had a cannon for an arm.

[@baracksays9401]

@@Whoopdido777 He won a playoff game in 99. Vikes beat the Cowboys in the wildcard round.

[@Whoopdido777]

@@baracksays9401 Oh yeah you’re right. I looked up his stats on pro-football-reference.com and messed up. I saw he went to the playoffs twice, but I thought I saw 0-1 and 0-1, but he was 1-1 in 1999.

[@MyEnemy]

Probably.

[@DonTrump-sv1si]

That Minnesota team was stacked for fantasy football

[@bigvsouthphilly2156]

Bro wtf that was an absolute dart

[@Tim21189]

Jeff George could sling it. He had an elite arm. Unfortunately, he was absolutely toxic. He was impossible to coach and get along with.

[@bigglilwayne7050]

Not even one of his really impressive throws

[@VolsFan4Life]

Crazy how true this is lol man made absurd throws look utterly routine

[@generatorx]

50 yard throw; didn't even put his body into it.

[@jrowdygi1837]

As smooth a looking thrower that's ever played.

[@Yeomannn]

Berman's noise lmfao BING

[@trevorlee7945]

Vikings biggest mistake was not resigning George for the 2000 season

[@howardcosell2022]

Daunte Culpepper

[@jackbronson4242]

if he had any mobility... not even mahomes/jackson type, just aaron rodgers type... above average for a white guy type of speed, he would have been great.

[@blake7871]

Agreed, but Mahomes isn’t any more mobile than Aaron Rogers.

[@jackbronson4242]

@@blake7871 Hmm... Rodgers 10 years ago and Mahomes this season, I would agree. Mahomes was playing with an injured big toe most of the year. Sounds dumb, but if you ever tried to play with that, it can be a burden. It definitely slowed him down. He couldn't plant and cut like he normally does. He isn't nearly as fast as Jackson or even Watson, but he is definitely elusive and can find holes. My point is just... when I say mobile, I don't mean just speed, the elusiveness counts too, and Mahomes is one of the best at that.

[@jackbronson4242]

@martini stirred would have helped, yes. he could sling it downfield though for sure.

[@blacker5826]

@@jackbronson4242 it is better to be a pocket passer than it is to be a mobile qb. don't wanna focus your aim on being a running quarterback and then not know how to throw and read defenses once you're 30 in the pocket right?

[@jackbronson4242]

@@blacker5826 i don’t think either is better. It’s all about effectiveness and moving the chains. If you can be an A+ passer but a D in mobility you’re not going to be as effective. If you have a B+ arm and B+ mobility you may be more effective than the first guy I said. And I wasn’t knocking George, just saying he had the arm but was so slow. If he had the extra dimension to his game he would have been more than a journeyman

[@tractordriver8950]

Stronger than Elway? What was his bench press?
