:lol: Yep sure did. 2 outta 3 deep balls didn't even land in bounds. Definitely most accurate.

That's hardly a translatable measure of accuracy. Even the annoucers pointed out (beforehand) that the long ball competition has almost no correlation to playing football. You may remember that in the pro QB competition Marino was perennially one of the worst at the long ball competition.

You'd get a better read on accuracy from the accuracy competition (shocking, I know). VY was second in that one by just ten points and if I remember correctly he hit more targets than any other competitor.
 
What was the bottom line?

were there winners or losers? If yes, could someone please post.

I'm well aware of all that. I just thought it was amusing considering there are so many people on here touting his long ball.

Well I guess that makes a big deal....considering that the other QB's there also didn't make every throw...but when you only need one throw to win...and you throw a pass for 64 yds....something you won't see in a game, unless it's a hail mary...in the scheme of things...so what?

For those that stated that Young didn't have arm strength...his throw of 64 yds, makes that go away.

And I find it amusing that those that said he couldn't throw long...still try to find a way to diss him. Anything over 60 yds is more than enough for any QB.
 
VY really does amaze and he has a pretty good work ethic (much greater than my own sadly). So sad it would take so much to trade up to get him.

Coming from someone that says arm strength is over rated without accuracy. :rolleyes2
