Article: why Russ is better than Cam

[Wolvie]

Joyner: Expect Russell Wilson to outplay Cam Newton

It is an ESPN insider article so unfortunately I couldn't read the whole thing. Can anyone with insider cut and paste here?

It was an interesting article but not terribly compelling. It was a run down of some fairly obscure stats that I think are interesting.

Don't get me wrong. I think that Wilson is the better QB. He has been his entire career. The Panthers played a VERY weak schedule. 4 teams with a winning record two of which were the Texans and Redskins. Good wins agains the Packers and Seahawks to be sure but their record flatters to deceive.

Cam reminds me of a scrambling Dan Marino. Great in the regular season but Shits the bed in the playoffs. His only win was against(correct me if I am wrong) a Cardinals team with a average 0QB

You'd be wrong, it was against AZ 3rd string QB last year after the where destroyed by injuries. That's not to say Cam can't or won't change all that this week, but as of right now he's only had three playoff games in his career.
