hey what's up everyone morey croson here and today we're going to be breaking down
some of the best throws in nfl history we're going to start the video right now
this is the newest edition of the performance reach your individual goals you don't want to
talk about straight lines we also want to talk about your delivery quick we break
down your video let's make you into the quarterback i know you can become
all right so this would be a cool video just going to go through some of the best throws that we've
ever seen in nfl history and you know this video was actually made a few years ago so it doesn't
have any patrick mahomes videos uh or any problem home throws or josh allen throws which makes me
think i should almost just do a 2022 best throws just because i feel like there were so many great
throws in or i guess 2021 uh the the last season that you know we had from josh allen patrick
holmes tom brady et cetera and we'll go ahead and hop right into it so we're going to start off with
michael vick and you know there's a lot of michael vick there's a lot of aaron rodgers here and this
is that opening uh play that he had against the washington redskins we've seen this a lot of times
right where he just does such a great job of being able to one load into the ground right get that
arm back that elbow back get the hand away so now he's stretching out the pec and he's creating a
lot of momentum from that back leg right so see how he's going he's stepping off and keeping so
much weight back and then you know as he's doing that he's really you know opening up that hip so
you can see where that hip's at and then he keeps those shoulders facing straight ahead so then as
he drives through the throw he's able to put a ton on on the actual ball and you know it stands out
to me is just how much we talked about this before external rotation that he has in the shoulder i
know we can't see the ball great here but we just see from where the trajectory of the ball
is that that ball is way back behind here and he's got a ton of rotation and then from there is able
to drive the elbow through and finish through that throw at the end of the day that is the key thing
i think that that has to happen in order to you know really generate a lot of power when throwing
the football and and we have another great throw here i mean aaron rodgers just has so many just
just absolutely phenomenal place right so here he's getting taken down right he just basically
flicks the wrist and throws the ball right he just generates some force off the ground some vertical
force off the ground and is just able to somehow get rid of the football there right so we can see
again extra rotation getting that wrist around right maintaining that position on the ball where
where his hand is in the control of the football right and then just flicking the wrist look how
he flicks the wrist he almost like snake bites it right when you can see just like his two fingers
end up just being like the primary thing that he uses to be able to push off the football which is
kind of an interesting thing i've never really seen uh that that view and that kind of release
there uh to be able to really break down and see what he does with the football in order to
get the ball of his hands i'm gonna have to try that out and see how it works for me personally
uh but so and then we'll go to eli manning this is obviously the the second super bowl where
it was the patriots versus the giants and you know really not great mechanics here right a lot
of things that we see where he he falls off to the side a good amount right he ends up really opening
up that front shoulder really early but at the end of the day he's in a good position with the wrist
right he's behind the football so then as he's able to get the ball out of his hands he's able
to you know still maintain accuracy i mean at the end of the day you know the more that you
slow this down and the more that you look at it this is just as lucky as you could possibly be uh
in terms of where that ball ended up going right because it was just such a perfect throw but you
can see like he's not even looking as the ball is coming out of his hand he's basically falling over
the side he just like you know was hoping that it ended up being somewhere in a position that
the receiver would be able to make a play and it ended up making you know ended up working out so
some of it ends up being you know when you're playing quarterback some of it ends up just
being how ballsy are you to be able to make the throw right are you willing to just put the the
ball into a you know place where hopefully your receiver can can go up and get it right you can't
always just look to find the perfect scenario for where where you want to end up putting the
football but um yeah and then we'll go into you know again another michael vic throw here
he's really fast at opening up that that army almost has that kind of baseball throw but he also
uses that arm to be able to pull back and drive that elbow through right and then what stands out
with him is always bend that wrist flick how he's able to easily get that that hand up over the top
and then just roll right over with that hand right and i see that a ton with the top quarterbacks is
they're able to you know really effectively you can see how great of a throw this ended up being
right right in the in the right spot i mean that couldn't have been more accurate right there
but the at the end of the day right you have to be able to have a lot of skill when it comes to
the or a lot of i guess balls is really the bigger thing you know have a lot of balls when
it comes to making the type of throws that some of these guys are making double coverage triple
covers things like that and you got to be able to figure out how to how to master your wrist
flick i remember seeing this this throw live i still think this is the best throw i've ever seen
right because he is literally getting taken out simultaneously with this right if we watch from
the backside like he is getting taken out with his legs as he's releasing this football so he's like
fully in the air and just basically flicks his wrist and throws the ball a big i mean where is it
he's on like the 40 here right so he ends up throwing the ball probably 45 yards right
on the money right like maybe 50 yards double coverage right right in between two defenders
i mean it that's just still i still think that's the greatest i've ever seen i had to throw a tom
brady one in here right i mean they had a couple of them here but there are some of them that were
just like uh whatever that wasn't like anything too crazy that he did but you know this one's
a pretty cool one just because if we look at the back you know he he ended up really putting it on
like the perfect spot like a line drive throw right over the defensive back's head i think
the d from the back where it turned around they probably would have been able to make a play
but you know great job rotating getting the hand up over the top right see where he's releasing the
football that ends up you know time and time again being the key thing right we got to be able to get
our wrists in the right position so then we can flick the ball and that will allow us to be able
to put more on the ball so you know and and i just recently started working with a guy that's like
6'3 right struggling a little bit with the ability to throw the ball far and accurately and things
like that and it's like man if we could just get you to be able to understand the importance of
the wrist right and making sure that you get the wrist in the right position okay so here's another
example of what you want to be doing look at this slow this is a great great angle right here okay
so we're getting to this position right and you can see how he gets the hand and pinky
all the way around and then from there flicks the wrist and gets the palm all the way up and
through okay he's rolling out to his left here turns real quick and rotates those hips gets that
ball in the right position right and palm in the right position to then be able to really
flick the wrist and throw the ball and you can tell again like how he holds the ball he must
hold it with like both fingers like two fingers behind the throat to make it so then he could
flick it with a little bit more kind of zest behind it again i'm gonna try to uh to replicate
that and see how that goes and then i wanted to throw in a dan marino one as well to be able to
kind of finish it off and and really i wanted to be able to throw in a couple a couple videos here
yeah it was another aaron rodgers just absolutely dime right where he's just throwing it in a place
where only his receiver can get it look at this look at this throw i don't know how
you know aaron rodgers is just so underrated in terms of how great he really is with this with how
he is able to throw the football that's why i did so many of these on aaron rodgers because he has
just so many throws they're just like oh my gosh that is unreal um but yeah i mean here we go aaron
or sorry dan marino nice quick release let's look take a look at his release actually we
haven't done that in a little bit two one two zero and he's got the ball out at he's probably
yeah he's probably like four eight right so he he probably has about a uh oh sorry four eight
point two eight release time i know you can't see that too much but 0.20 to 0.48 right so he is
definitely under 1.3 which is pretty impressive i know i did a video before about where he was
exactly uh with his release but you know i think he would be sub point three it does a great job
of just kind of loading into that that back leg really easily and just you know just uses that
that force of kind of loading down to then drive that arm right right forward and through um you
know i think that he had a very very unique style and a very unique ability to be able to generate
a lot of force beyond the ball utilizing a lot of his momentum with his upper body very strong with
his upper body and you know also uses his lower body to make it seem like he doesn't use the lower
body but yeah it really is effective in being able to generate a lot of power very quickly within you
know how he leans with the spine and how he's able to drive that that front arm through or or pull
that that front elbow back and use that to really drive the elbow and has the timing to be able to
do that right because when you do all that type of stuff when you add in more movement with the spine
right and more movement with that front arm it makes it a little bit more difficult to get
that wrist into the right spot right so like the more like when on deeper throws when i
really try to pull hard with that front arm it makes it so that that football is very is a lot
more likely to kind of face off to the side or a little bit harder for me to get up over the top
with my timing and so you know got to be able to be aware of where that ball ends up being or where
that wrist ends up being when you're trying to generate more rotation within that upper
body but yeah so as always guys if you like the information go and click that thumbs up subscribe
the channel if you have any questions comments or recommendations you can leave those down below
i highly recommend you guys checking out some of the other things that we have some of our other

create more force off the lower body how to be able to get yourself in the right wrist position
all those types of things are going to be on our page or in the description down below as well as
on our youtube page and then within that we have individualized programs right so you have the
ability to get breakdowns similar to this where we could really slow down and see what it is that you
