No argument here, but I seem to recall him having great touch on deep out throws. Mostly just remembering what I saw from highlights though, I could be wrong.
When he was starting in Oakland, we had this kid named James Jett (aptly) who ran track on the Olympic team. He was referred to as being on the "Al Davis scholarship" which meant his flat-line speed kept him in the starting lineup and later on the roster over better players. Jeff George was the only QB alive who could routinely overthrow Jett. His arm was insane.
Ah yes, Jeff George. He went to Warren Central high school in my hometown (Indy), played for my alma mater one year (Purdue) before transferring to Illinois. He could have been so much better than he was. It's a shame. He certainly has the potential.

Not gonna lie, this is an interesting concept moes. So interesting that I decided to "Build the Perfect Linebacker". 1) The Relentlessness, or ability to smell the tackle before the snap of a Mike Singletary. 2) The Wall, or ability to stop the run at all times of a Junior Seau. 3) The Natural, the all around game of a Derrick Brooks. 4) Hard Hitter, Dick. Butkus. 5) The Pass Rusher, speed and elusiveness of a Lawrence Taylor. 6) The Floor Sergeant, or the ability to out call a qaurterback and lead a HOF defense of a Jack Lambert 7) The Passion, or ability to want to make every single play on the football field of a Ray Lewis. 8) The Consistent, the never miss a game in 10 seasons consistency of a Randy Gradishar. 9) The Athletic Big, tall, fast and huge of a Ted Hendricks. 10) The Scary, or ability to scare your opposition of a Ray Nitschke .
Give him Andy Dalton's hair. Redheads have a chip on their shoulder and it'll show on the field. Possible con: you have a ginger qb.
The Injection, ability to juice beyond realization of a Brian Cushing The Celebration, spontaneous, wtf is that dance , of Shawn Merriman
Lol too bad you could've used Merriman for both of those. Loved his lights out dance though, he was Peyton's daddy.
any one with the ability to not kick to a phenom such as Devin Hester anyone willing to take a paycut in order to sign real talent.....
