21 of 36, 286 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT (90.7 rating)
14 carries, 82 yards, 1 TD

Those are good-ish numbers, but not really the same, Shake. Plus it's comparing a 6th year 1st round pick QB to a 1st year 4th round pick QB.

Plus "tore up" isn't exactly the words used for a 58.3% completion in preseason. Also forgot to mention that's in 4 games rather than the numbers I gave for 2. 3 TDs in 4 games =/= 6 TDs in 2 games.

Not annointing him anything, and I haven't seen enough from the kid to say for sure that he'll run away from a fumble in the fourth quarter of the SB, so I won't insult him by calling him Cam Newton, either.


Just saying, damn impressive for a 4th round pick rookie, even if it's preseason.
