Don't put words in my mouth. If you read the quotes I cited, you'd see they weren't so much about his performance in the mock, but his mental make-up and willpower. That's what sets him apart from AD. Not that Andy = Ryan Leaf in those areas, but McCarron's not satisfied with being a backup. And I don't think he will be. Again, maybe not here.

Note Pacman's observations from back on July 1

Quote:"McCarron looks really good," Jones told Geoff Hobson, the editor of Bengals.com. "The other guys have their spurts, but he's got the 'it' factor. The kid's a winner. You can tell he's been working on his ball strength from last year and this year. You can never underestimate the 'it' factor, regardless of what anybody says. It's the difference between winning some games and being champion. That's my opinion."
