Does the backup QB really matter?

Only one third of Bengals scoring drives (6 of 18) with McCarron at QB started in the opponents side of the field.  Half of those scoring drives covered over 62 yards, 8 were at least 70 yards, and 5 were over 80 yards.

On pass plays on third down McCarron converted 36% for first down (14 of 39).  That is exactly the same as the league average (1966 of 5434)

Vick and Jones combined to convert only 9 of 45 third downs on passing plays. That is only 20%


You have no clue what you are talking about.
