It has been SIX YEARS since he had a winning record as a starter.
Yet, he's had a .500 record twice since, which is the same as McCarron, who sits at 2-2. He also has an overall better record in way more starts. He's also won as many playoff games as the Bengals have in their entire 48 year history.

Maybe if we had went all the way down to zero rushing yards McCarron would have had a 120+ passer rating.
So why doesn't every other team in the league just "pare down" their offense and make their QBs produce 97+ passer ratings if it is that easy.
Have you ever thought that maybe opposing defenses loaded up to stop the run because they weren't worried about Mac?
I'd also argue that McCarron averaging 191 yards in his starts contributed to the terrible yardage numbers, but maybe that's just me being a hater.

Ok then. Vick went 1-1. Mac went 2-2. Is there supposed to be a huge difference there?
Btw Fred, it's called "multi quote".

Nobody is saying the kid sucks. Just saying he's not the 2nd coming of Brady. Which many folks here sincerely seem to believe.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
