Peyton Manning and Cam Newton's 2015 statistics are compared. While Cam Newton had more touchdowns (35 to 9) and rushing yards (3,337 to 2,249), Peyton Manning was not far behind in other stats. Cam Newton's high touchdown total made his team favorites to win. However, in the Super Bowl, Peyton Manning's experience allowed Denver to win as their defense shut down Cam Newton, who grew frustrated with his defense's inability to make plays.
