Cam Newton isn't having a great season, and he's unlikely to change that against Seattle. That's a great defense, and he's faced it six times in the last four seasons without putting up big numbers in any of those games.
No shame, of course, in struggling against Seattle. But even when he was playing at an MVP level and putting up big numbers in most of his other games, he had fairly modest production in the series. Not great rushing numbers, and no more than 2 TDs in any game (and usually only 1 or none).
Here are the numbers.
