标题: 一个语法问题，谢谢~

Many experts regarded the large increase in credit card borrowing in March not as a sign that households were pressed for cash and forced to borrow, but as a sign that households were confident they could safely handle new debt.

中 households were confident they could safely handle new debt。这句话不是很理解
难道有 noun + linking verb + adj + clause 的形式么？还是be confident that +clause 省略that,如果是后一种的话，不是不能省略么？
求大牛把这句话的成分分解一下，谢谢了~

Many experts regarded the large increase in credit card (borrowing in March) not as a sign that households were pressed for cash and forced to borrow, but as a sign that households were confident they could safely handle new debt.

主语：Many experts
谓语：regarded
宾语： the large increase in credit card (borrowing in March是修饰credit card的)

其实理解这句只要知道regard something as something的用法就行，该句的核心结构是regard something not as A, but as B. 其中A是a sign that households were pressed for cash and forced to borrow，B是a sign that households were confident they could safely handle new debt.

a sign that households were confident they could safely handle new debt是个同位语从句，that后面部分是sign的内容。that从句中，households是主语，were是谓语，后面又是一个宾语从句: households were confident (that) they could safely handle new debt。至于为什么confident后面的that省略，是因为a sign that已经有个that，如果再加个that会显得句子很冗长，从句里套从句。。。
