Daily Norseman on J.J. McCarthy

McCarthy's high completion rate masks shorter throws; trend worth monitoring vs. system fit.

McCarthy is showing a noticeably higher completion percentage but a significantly shorter average depth of target in early training camp; Forness flagged this trend as worth monitoring, questioning whether McCarthy is pressing, playing conservatively to win the job, or simply working within what the defense is giving him. O'Connell's offense rewards quarterbacks who take calculated risks and will tolerate extra interceptions for touchdowns, raising the question of whether McCarthy's conservative approach aligns with the system's demands.
