Allen Park — Matthew Stafford may have the strongest arm of any quarterback in the NFL, but it’s the knowledge of when to take something off a throw that can separate a good passer from a great one.
As TJ Jones sliced across the field during a preseason game against the Indianapolis Colts a little more than a week ago, Stafford stepped up in the pocket to avoid pressure and lofted a gentle throw over the outstretched arm of a penetrating defensive lineman, hitting Jones in stride 20 yards down the field for a 22-yard gain.
