06:36 PM ET 12.14 | When it comes to San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, there is a lot of excitement surrounding the young gun. He has been discussed so often in the past few weeks that even his tattoos have become a topic of discussion. Now, thanks to veteran receiver Randy Moss, it's not Kaepernick's ink that is getting the publicity - it is his arm strength. Moss said that Kaepernick throws harder than any quarterback he has ever played with. In fact, the man his teammates know as "Kap," threw the ball so hard in his first NFL start that it resulted in a first for Moss' career as well. "Man, he dislocated my finger," Moss said. "[H]e had to put one them Randy Johnson fastballs on me. When it hit my finger, I felt my finger pop. He dislocated it. So I had to come back to the sideline and the doctor had to pop it back in."

Obviously it's better to have to take off a bit than to not be able to put anymore on it.

Yeah, unless the pass in question was a 10 yard swing pass.

I remember the play....it wasn't a short swing pass but, he didn't have to smoke it like he did. He was jacked up just because he was getting to play.

Yep. Any time something bad happens to Randy Moss .... it's a good thing. Absolutely.

Shades of Mike Vick whipping 100 mph fastballs at a running back who is standing 10 yds away in the flat.

I remember a few other strong armed QB's who didn't amount to much.

Ryan Leaf, Vince Young, Jeff George etc............

Well if you whip it like that at their head perhaps they will catch it out of self defense
