In general what would you say you need for a strength score in order to allow your QB to throw deep routes effectivly, also keeping in mind the tight spiral SA.

Looking for opinions/expirence.

I don't throw a lot deep but my strength is 45... I can get the ball down there but I guess you'd need higher throwing than I have to do it effectively.

Like I say, imo vision = less ints, throwing = more TDs.

Vision = short-medium passing offense
Strength = medium-deep passing offense

Combine one of those with throwing and keep them even. In your case, strength to be a deep passing guy, which if you do you may want favor long ball on and to check with your teams on how much deep throwing is set to.

I don't entirely agree with the:

"Like I say, imo vision = less ints, throwing = more TDs"

Simply because after looking at the 8 ints I've thrown this season:

4 were due to the receiver tipping the ball up
3 were due to inaccurate throws
1 was the result of throwing into coverage.

Of course this could differ from player to player but in my case im going to stick with throwing.

For the most part Jeff garcia is correct about vision. Unless you have a crappy O-line/receivers. If they stink, your QB stinks.
