Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh is so confident in his quarterback, his only advice for McCarthy this week was “have at it.”
Here’s the catch: Michigan’s passing attack was more explosive last season with McNamara at quarterback. Through 11 games, the Wolverines have only completed 12 passes that gained 30 or more yards – about 1 per game, which ranks 99th out of 131 teams. Through 14 games last year, UM completed 24 such passes in 14 games , which ranked 30th.
The little things can be fixed. And to be fair, UM’s run game has already produced more explosive plays this season – 26 plays of 20-plus yards compared to 24 last. McCarthy deserves credit for making defenses account for his athleticism.Earlier this month, Harbaugh dubbed McCarthy an “Ice Man” like legendary tennis player Bjorn Borg, who was famous for his composure under pressure.
Hayes said he has “complete confidence” in McCarthy running a pass-heavy game plan. Smith says McCarthy looks the part of “QB1″ in practice. And Harbaugh is so confident in his quarterback that his only advice for McCarthy this week was “have at it.”
