Yardage is becoming a ridiculous fantasy stat in the NFL and is not a true reflection of how good someone actually played. I would take 250 yrds passing 3 TD's and 0 INT's over the game Newton had. With all that said Newton is playing much better than I would have thought at this stage in his rookie year. Credit has to be given to his O-line. He had a lot of time back there on Sunday

Oh stop taking us down to reality.



You're no fun.

I think people root for unethical, evil scumbags. How else can you explain this thread?

Father a preacher who prostitutes their son for money? It's all good.

Pampered star has a sketchy past? It's all good.

All hail Satan!!

Brady.

That is a QB. Newton (0-2) has been electric, so has Vick (1-1). Watch Brady for numbers, wins and how to do the job right regardless of supporting cast mates.

Newton will probably be an interesting fantasy quarterback for years to come. But did anybody actually watch either of his two games? It's easy to play MMQB just looking at stats, but when it came down to crunch time both against Arizona and yesterday, Newton didn't exactly set the world on fire in the red zone. Had a chance to tie Green Bay late yesterday, and his throws were all over the place.

The aside to all of this is that Green Bay's defense might actually really stink.
