Cam Newton: The Real Deal?

[slotdirt]

Newton also tied the record for most passing yards by a rookie in any game, tying the record held by...Matthew Stafford. I won't tell clyde against whom Stafford set that record.

Why, I'll bet it was the same team whose first 10 years of existence are pure storybook...you'd think it was scripted out of someone's noodle and made into a Disney movie.


Bet ya.

From '50 to '58, the Browns and Lions won a combined six NFL championships. Since? Let's not talk about that.

The Lions had great teams in the 50's and probably could have carried through the first half of the 60's if not for the Packers.They always were a big Browns nemesis.



The Brown's...mainly talking about '46 through '55.

Yes..they were still a very good team through the 60's, but not the great team of the 40's and 50's.


Not sure if the story of their first 10 years can be matched by any team in any sport.
