I'm not very impressed with the 5.84 yds/att or 54% completion.
I'm not trying to take away from the first two things I mentioned, as they are obviously very significant... but really, the fact that 3 of his passes have put someone in the endzone is overrated with regards to passer rating... and sacks aren't even accounted for in passer rating. I don't like passer rating.

Brad Johnson played most against Carolina, Detroit, and New York Giants, all average or slightly above average in sacks and interceptions. I would say Brad Johnson did OK not because of opponents, but because he's not asked to do much.
What I am trying to ask here is, maybe a lot of Culpepper's problem is the expectation on him, which was built too high from the Randy Moss days.
