Something to consider:

While I was reading about how Newton should be the MVP (link below), Elliot Harrison compares Cam's season to Steve Young in '94, and with good reason:

Steve Young in '94: 35 TD, 10 INT, 112.8 passer rating, 5.1 yards per rush, 7 rush TD. 
Cam Newton in '15: 35 TD, 10 INT, 99.2 passer rating, 4.8 yards per rush, 10 rush TD. 
 

(http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000630776/article/2015-mvp-cam-newton-a-unanimous-pick-among-nfl-media-analysts?campaign=tw-nf-sf20080630-sf20080630)

 

Some striking resemblances there, pretty cool I guess. My curiosity was piqued, so I decided to compare the 1994 49ers to the 2015 Panthers. Results below.

 

2015 Panthers:                                                                                                

15-1                                                                                                                   

#1 seed                                                                                                             

#1 offense in PF (500 points)                                                                             

#6 defense in PA (308 points)                                                                           

Close win over #5 seed (7 points, 31-24)                                                        

BIg win over #2 seed (34 points, 49-15)                                                            

2-0 in Playoffs, combined scored 80-39 (41 pt diff.)                                          

Super Bowl Result: ??? vs. AFC West Champion Denver Broncos             

 

1994 49ers:

13-3

#1 seed

#1 offense in PF (505 points)

#6 defense in PA (296 points)

Big win over #6 seed (29 points, 44-15)

      The Carolina Huddle

      Been here since middle school right when it started around 2003 after the charlotte.com one. Living outside of Carolina it was tough to find good Panthers content, news or analysis. And no one to talk to about it. This place gave me a lot though I don’t often post. In the later days, I particularly Loved PhillyB’s write ups. They were fire. Too bad I go let it go. I appreciate the hell out of @MHS831 @TheSpecialJuan @Jackie Lee and others who have been posting great content and keeping this place worth coming back to. Particularly during the offseason. Appreciate y’all!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By kass · Posted

      Nice explanation, but I was just messing with you. Thought that would be obvious. I dont have the energy to keep on trolling. Last season I compared our situation with Bryce as a potential Alex Smith, but what we should be looking for is our version of Mahomes. Some people will read that as one sentence, to me that single sentence is equivalent to a half A4 explanationf of the teams pathway forward.

      I dont know how much of his salary would come across and how much a trade would cost but I feel Kmet would be the sort of TE Canales and Morgan would like
