Nice stat

[TN05]

Cam Newton has a 69% completion percentage through 2 games

I mean, I like it on its face, but I still want to see more shots down field. 

People don't want to hear it, but we aren't going to get where we want to go with Cam running a dink-and-dunk offense. It will only get you so far.

I'd prefer 58% and 2-0 but yeah he's played great and it's nice to see the higher completion percentage.

I think Cam was looking downfield on several plays but there was obviously nothing there. Atlanta’s DBs manhandled our WRs. 

I would like to see more drag routes. Atlanta ran them all game long for big gains. Safe pass & let your receivers go to work. This would be perfect for D.J. but he has to get on the field first.

I could go on.

Cam is a damned good deep ball passer, and in my opinion it would be a tragedy to misuse this part of his arsenal. I'm not saying throw caution to the wind, but you have to keep defenses honest.

i agree, brother.  just having a little fun

but, stats are real.  brady is avg in yds in the air completed and the difference between avg and intended air yards.  even more telling regarding the effectiveness of dink and dunk is drew brees.
