He sure seems to throw a lot of long completions for someone with a questionable arm.
No one has said it's "questionable". That word, it seems to me, carries with it the connotation that it isn't good enough to play in the NFL. I've never read anyone say that. What I and some others have said is that he doesn't have a great arm. I would say he has a decent arm but there are some throws he doesn't have the arm strength to try without getting into trouble.
I agree that a lot of his throws look good and his accuracy has been good, but I saw a couple of throws the other night where it was plain to see that he doesn't have the gun that the top guys have. I wish I would have noted the time of the game and I would give them to you.
That's not a knock on Romo. It's just a fact. He could turn out to be a fine player for us. Brees and Delhomme don't have rocket arms.
