For sure.. I'm really only asking based on the assumption that both are playing.. Newton could end up running for 75 yards, throwing for 160 yards.. 1 TD running, 1 throwing, 1 INT.. that would be equal to Collins going for 225 yards in the air and 2 TDs in the air.. about equal.. I'm not sold on ARZ defense.. which is what Newton is facing.. but Houston is ranked as one of the worst defenses in NFL.
