quote:
59% completion percentage in his first two years in a down-field passing, non-West-Coast, offense.
He was 26th in the league in completion % last year, just above Brandon Weeden. He was 21st the year prior.
The only QB to ever win a Superbowl without a completion % in the top half of the league was Terry Bradshaw, and in the two years in which he did it he had the #1 defense in both yards and points against.
So, unless Cam Newton gets paired with a defense comparable to the Steel fricking Curtain, my point stands.

What about this part?

2 years in the NFL
9367 yards of total offense (4683 yards per season average)
62 total TDs as opposed to 34 total turnovers (31/17 per season average)
Yeah, buddy... those NFL DC's sure have got him nailed to the wall.
What other QB in NFL history has put up those kind of numbers in their first two seasons?
