One start from Carson Wentz and all of a sudden everyone hopped off the J.J. McCarthy hype train quicker than a bullet train.
McCarthy is dealing with a right ankle injury that's expected to keep him out until possibly their Week 7 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. During his first two starts, he threw for 301 yards and two touchdowns to three interceptions, adding 50 yards rushing and one touchdown.
It hasn't been a perfect beginning to McCarthy's career, but he's shown the grit that made him a winner at Michigan. Progress is still needed, but it appears he won't get the grace period to quite get there from those in the media.
