Does the backup QB really matter?

He only had one td drive over 60 yards and it consisted of a short dump off that Martavius Bryant ran 88 yards for a td.

McCarron had five 80+ yard tds drives in just four games.

Give it up.  You are now basing your arguments on imaginary things that never happened.  That is ridiculous.

So you're saying that if the defense puts the ball on the opponents side of the field it won't help them score more? lol, are you serious? It obviously makes the offense seem more efficient if you barley had to move the ball down the field to get a score. ~86% of Jones scoring drives started on his side of the field. If McCarron wouldn't have had the defense play like it did at the end of the year half of his TD drives would be gone. That would take a LOT of his efficiency away.
