See above.
Because passer rating is based on pure %. The less yards it takes you to score through the air the higher passer rating you have. So, if you start with a short field that's less yards you have to cover and that raises your passer rating quite a bit.
Plus McCarron has a hard time scoring if the ball is placed on the Bengals side of the field, so it increases his chance to score, which increases his passer rating. You would be surprised at how little McCarron scores when he doesn't start by or past (on the opponents side) the 50 yard line.
Still haven't shown where I'm wrong about McCarron.
