Interception rates since week 13 last season
There is an interesting article on ESPN about Alex Smith not having an interception since game 12 of last season. That's all fine and dandy, but the reason I am posting this is for the chart they provide with interception/dropped interception rates of quarterbacks in that time period (with over 100 drop backs). Cam Newton has a 2.7% rate (5 INT, 0 dropped INT), which puts him at 13th in the league. For comparison sake, Matt Ryan has 0.9% (2, 0), Drew Brees 2.3% (5, 1) and Josh Freeman 3.2% (6, 0) over the same period.
