Like you pointed out he already does not get the same work in as Andy and if the Bengals keep him as a back up for 2 more years it will not help his cause.
That being said the greatest job in the NFL may be a lifetime back up QB. Will still get paid and be able to walk and still chew bubblegum at the same time in your 50's.
True, but do you really want a guy who is happy being the backup? I watched a lot of McCarron at Alabama and think he is too competitive to be happy being a backup. There was a play in the National Championship game against Notre Dame where his center was not snapping the ball quick enough and McCarron let him have it. The center shoved him, but McCarron did not back down. Keep in mind they were leading by about 30 points when this happened. I remember thinking "this kid does not let up".
