What did McCarron show in those games? He never lead the team to more than 24 points in a game and the team had 8 games that season scoring over 30 points. Under McCarron the offense averaged 300 total yards a game, and that would be one of the worst total yard average in the league if averaged over the whole year. McCarron beat the horrible Ravens who had a backup QB off of the street and the 49ers who had a backup in also. Lol it's so funny people think McCarron showed anything while he was in. All he showed is that he's a backup quality QB that can squeak out a win against the worst teams in the NFL with the rest of the team playing like a Superbowl caliber team.
You're pointing out short comings that almost all 1st time NFL starting QB's, coming of the bench with little time working with the staters have. There's no substitute for playing time.
Look at the intangibles of McCarron. He just seems to be a better leader.
I don't wish harm to Andy, but if he goes down again it will be interesting to see how much further McCarron's talent has developed.
