jgb Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 3 minutes ago, Coffee Is Great said: It is possible to praise Mac Jones and: 1) Not bash other rookie QBs. 2) Acknowledge the positive situation he landed in. 3) Understand that he probably won't be the best QB in this class in 10 years. The kid looks good. If he was performing like this in New York our fans would be calling to enshrine him in Canton after one season. Jones vs Wilson is apples to oranges at this point. Many of the reasons have already been stated in this thread. 1. True 2. True 3. I wouldn't say "probably." I'll grant "uncertain." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GangGreened Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I’m starting to think you build the team, or at least your offense and establish some type of identity first, then find your rookie QB so the team is actually capable of helping him grow. seems smarter than what the Jets do. Draft a QB to a talent barren team, toss him right out there day 1 and pray for the best 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He threw a 20 yard out last Sunday that was a bullet (that’s one of the biggest tests of arm strength). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pats must have been absolutely laughing at Lance and Fields going ahead of him. He was always their guy. Hopefully Wilson can turn it around but Jones is going to be a problem for a long time. You'd think the Jets fans who wrote him off would have learned by now. And Carolina deciding to trade for Darnold instead of taking him at #8.

You'd think the Jets fans who wrote him off would have learned by now. The Patriots would have been happy with any of the 5 QBs taken in the first round. Revisionist history halfway through the season is so easy. So is 20-20 hindsight. There are 20% of posters on this board who said one of Lawrence, Wilson, Lance, Fields, or Jones was the best QB.

Namath99 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Mac Jones. A guy who played excellent versus top competition we were told he’s not as good as a QB who never played well facing a good defense in college, the 27th in a row lousy Ohio State QB, and a homeless man’s Colin Kaepernick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
