Whatever we think of his abilities, what a class act by Mac Jones
36 comments
Big of Mac after BB benched his ass in week 18 as one final fuck you and made Rourke who had been in the building for a little over a week the backup.
I thought the same thing. Optically, he seems like a great guy off the field.
Draft MHJ, bring a good OC in, get the defense healthy. Get in a serviceable line and let him run it back next year. If he sucks get a QB next years draft.
He’s a great guy, he just happens to not be very good at football. I think Mac could become a decent backup given the right situation, I just think he needs a fresh start and a coach willing to put in the work.
I guarantee he flipped his phone off right before he hit post.
I will die on the hill that Mac with a decent line is no worse than Zappe or anyone we could feasibly run out there. Obviously help is needed all over, but Mac got way too much hate this year
“Sorry I was so bad at football that I got you, the best coach ever, fired. My b.”
/s sort of
God I hope Mac makes something work. I know he wasn’t the greatest QB in the draft class but there was no other option to go with and a solid pick at the time. He had a great rookie season and in the end, I think it was us who did him dirty, not that he was a bad player from jump.
He’s a good kid. But a terrible QB.
I still love Mac Jones. I know he was awful (like…truly dreadful) this year and last, but I’ll always root for the guy
I wish Mac luck wherever he ends up. I have no ill will to the kid. The team didn’t do him any favors with the Patricia season and it definitely mentally broke him a bit. 2023 Mac didn’t look the same to me as 2021 Mac. Kid needs to ride the bench behind a veteran somewhere for a year or two, and hopefully he’ll get another chance to compete for a starting spot somewhere down the line.
Classy move – I hope he’s back next year with a fresh start under the Mayo Regime.
There’s more of a chance that he will be MVP next year than he wrote this instead of his agent.
Dude must be going through it right now. I feel bad we failed Mac
Mac Jones Comeback POTY 2028. Seriously. He isn’t going away. He has the tools. He is going to bounce around for a bit and have an Alex Smith-esque moment. Mark it.
His mental issues definitely were compounded by the toxic atmosphere with the fans here in New England. Any players on all four teams have to really work hard to lock the bad ones out. Think about all the dudes the last 20 years that have come in with high expectations and burnt out. Edgar Renteria in 2005, great example. The way the media allows things to fester, and now they know they can basically get the owner to fire the coach by amplifying, in Kraft’s own words, “the psyche” of the fanbase (when things aren’t going well). That is not good.
Of all the things I thought I would hear yesterday, Kraft’s personal address sounded…flustered and weak. And now he is driving the bus again. There are going to be moments in the next few years when someone is going to try to make a move from the “Belichick” playbook personnel wise, media wise, whatever, and someone will resist in the name of change and there will be acrimony.
I think not fully gutting the front office is a HUGE mistake. Huge.
Mac is working to get a second contract.
Always felt like Mac got way too much heat. People are ruthless. He tried to play as well as he could for our team and I always rooted for him
He might be salvageable. Even as a backup … surround him and stop changing OC’s on him
* Wednesday: Aw my college coach retired *post* * Thursday: and now my pro coach is leaving *post* * Friday: *anxiety*
This is exactly the kind of positive attitude that will serve him well with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
When you have to sign the retirement card for the senior manager you hated but everyone will see your name on it.
He was the fourth-best prospect his year, it wasn’t expected him to be the next goat. Add a different OC every year, an offensive line that looks like Swiss cheese, horrible receivers and a run game that ran with the handbrake on, a fan base used to win, and there is absolutely no one who would not collapse under the same conditions.
Get this man MHJ and let him fight for his job.
Honestly feel bad for Mac. He was put into an impossible situation. Showed flashes of brilliance but had 0 stability.
Get this dude a qb coach in the offseason, get him a oc, a good wr group, and a good o line, and he will ball out
I highly doubt Mac is going to be here last year and I don’t think he’s the guy who is gonna put our franchise on his back.
That being said, classy move by Jones, especially with being benched/never publicly backed as the starter
The sad thing about Mac is he seems like such a decent guy. I wanted him to win and succeed so bad even putting aside being a pats fan.
He’s gonna be our backup. I have a strong feeling we’re not done with Mac Jones.
Oh ffs, congrats random PR company handling Mac’s social media, you’re doing a great job
I don’t hold any ill will for Mac. By all accounts he busted his ass. Just didn’t work out on the field.
Mac Jones is the reason Bill is no longer with us
Guys, his pr guy wrote one good piece… the guy is an asshole…
I think Mac has always been a standup guy. No matter what his performance on the field was, he seemed like he worked hard and in press conferences always took ownership. Dude deserves a second chance and I hope he gets it
Say “Coach Belichick” again. I dare you.
We didn’t deserve Mac Jones.
Mac is a crybaby and a dirty player who threw a fit every time he faced adversity. I don’t like him.
