Thanks, Boston Card, for sharing the ESPN stats.  I've just been looking at the same numbers after reading Hulk01's comment.  When you compare the two QBs over the SEASON'S four games, they look pretty similar in terms of percentage completed, interceptions, ratings, etc.  Yes, they've both made some dumb/comparable mistakes (fumbles and interceptions).  However, I have a hard time imagining Hogan completing 25 or 26 consecutive passes (the exact number for Golson is in dispute, but at the very least he set a ND record and came within one of the FBS record).  Not bad for a guy who sat out a year.  Golson's rating for the Syracuse game=183.6 and a few comments that he could be in the Voldemort mix; Hogan's rating for the Washington game=127.9.  For the season as a whole, their respective ratings are 164.6 and 167.8.
Perhaps labeling Golson "dynamic" was an overstatement, but at least he was more fun to watch in the Syracuse game than Hogan was in the Washington game.  Must be the Catholic in me, mea culpa...
