You proved my point, though, with that instance you broought up. Virtually the same guy, only in his 4th game McCarron looked as good or better than AD in his 5th season. Especially in pressure games.
A game or two spread out here and there is BS for the talent around him. He wilts and shrinks far more than he rises. Not... even... close.
Really the credit for the win would have to go to the defense, the Oline, and Hill.
We didn't do shit offensively until the cheap play on Gio fired up the oline and Jeremy. They were after blood in the trenches at that point, and Pitt's inability to stop the rush brought the Pitt pass rush to a halt.
McCarron wasn't some big hero.
