Whereas other QBs are going to have to put more air under the ball and their velocity will drop off earlier in a more natural arc.
I'm sure a real scientist can confirm this analysis.

Iirc, to get the nose to point down like that you’ve gotta have it spinning quite a bit otherwise it won’t turn over
