Part of the article:

"Here are some other items of interest involving these teams.

11-1: Carolina’s record in December the past three years. Newton has played in all but one of those games, winning 10.

5:7: The Falcons’ record during the same time frame. That included a 2-2 mark in 2012 when they finished with a 13-3 record and advanced to the NFC title game.

3-4: Ron Rivera’s record against the Falcons. The Panthers have won three of the last four meetings between the teams.

8-5: Mike Smith’s record against Carolina.

21-10: Ryan’s touchdown passes and interceptions in 13 games against Carolina. He’s completed 63.7 percent of his passes (295-for-463).

11-10: Newton’s touchdown passes and interception in seven games against the Falcons. Five of those interceptions came in the first two games. He’s completed 59.4 percent of his passes (139-for-234)."

Stat that sticks out to me is Ryan throwing 10 more touchdowns than Cam in their meetings against each other.

Did they compare rushing TDs? Surely cam has some of those. Or just rushing TDs by running backs. I would think we might have an edge there since ATLs rushing game has been trash for years now. Also how about the pick 6 that Ryan threw last year?

    • Yeah I'm still not sure about Canales' play calling but I'll give him another season. Still can't quite figure out why you think Young won't work out. His numbers with Theilen are as good as any QB Theien's ever had - including the three games he has started with Rogers this year. Cokers' numbers are as good as Theilens and he is an UDFA and TMac is in the run for ORTY with Young as his QB. Young's throwing more accurately now (from 21.5% in 23 to 16.5% this year) and he has shown he can make the throws in clutch moments. If you take into account he was saddled with XL, Chark, Mingo and Johnson for receivers at one point, had a coaching staff his first year that didn't want him and a current coach who is suspect at play calling, I'm not sure he has been as bad as people here say. I know he has had terrible moments/games but most qb's still on their rookie contract will.  Anyway, had to give my weekly BY plug. Guess I thought this was the perfect time lol.
    • He missed a lot of time. Was slow getting back up to speed. And we have an offense that is not exactly WR friendly so his targets were low.  How many targets does anyone get when you have 120 yards passing, 54 yards passing, 160 yards, most of the time? It probably took the time it needed to take.
    • The 5th year option jus gives them a little more time to make their decision and figure out the position going forward.  The idea that it means hes def gonna get a extension is asinine.
