Young Matt Cassel Vs Tom Brady, Year One

So I’d never compare Cassel to Brady in terms of All Time Greats, at least not at this point in Young Matty’s fledgling career as a red shirt freshman starter. But I have kept track of how MC Throw’s first 11 games compare to Young Tom Brady’s first 11…

Team Record:

TB 7-4

MC 7-4

Completions/Attempts/Percentage:

TB 198/302, 65.2%

MC 238/359, 67.2%

Passing Yards:

TB 2082

MC 2615

TD/INT:

TB 16/7

MC 13/8

QB Rating:

TB 91.94

MC 91.49

So.

While I loves me some Tom Brady, MC’s numbers are VERY comparable to what Young Tom put up over his first 11 starts in the 2001 Super Bowl winning season…

Did I just say “ Super Bowl Winning Season?” Hmmm…
