1. I think you meant to say Brady there, not Dalton.
2. I didn't say he compared his play to Brady, either. I said that he compared himself to Brady. There is an important distinction, and my guess is the confusion comes from some people not understanding that distinction. To keep things on the same page, though, I'll specifically refer to it as referencing his situation.
McCarron's situation is also similar to that of many other quarterbacks in recent history. That he chose to liken his situation to that of a future Hall of Famer is something I think opponents can raise an eyebrow to. I don't think it's the end of the world. I just think a desperate team like the Niners could use it as motivation... For the record, I think Pettine implying the the Niners rolled over and quit is the stronger motivator for them to look like a stronger team this week.
