I agree that their style of play was totally different. Jones always makes the right play and takes what is given him, if it isn't there he throws the ball away or takes the sack, always does the high percentage intelligent move, like a coach on the field. Tua was totally different, super natural with a creative intelligence, always trying to extend or make some amazing play (which happened plenty of times). Jones had better numbers, but I would argue that in college their effectiveness, but not their style, was similar when healthy. The problem was that Tua was always getting hurt, at least partially because of that "never give up on a play", "do something amazing every snap", "run around until a receiver gets open" style.Tape doesn't lie, dude can play. Tua didn't play anyway remotely close to how Jones did.
Jonesy just needs to have a health/fitness guru to give him more muscle, increase his cardio and work with a QB guru to improve any angle of throws. His techniques are sound which is the hard part.
Get that beer belly into a 6-pack.
No it's not. Mac Jones is going to be the greatest QB of all timeThis is a dumb thread that even for sake of argument comes at least a year too early.
How would anyone have an informed opinion about Mac's ceiling before he takes a single snap at NFL level ?
Kid could be anywhere from Kirk Cousins to Peyton Manning. Who knows. If we are to buy what some analysts say he has off the charts intangibles. He could also prove to be an above average QB for a perennial wild card playoff team. It will be very interesting to see how it turns out.I like to think he will be really good in the right system and coaching, which the Patriots have. Expecting his career to be somewhere between Big Ben and Kirk Cousins.
Nobody can possibly hate the fact the Pats paid absolutely nothing to pick him up. The fact they made the pick that quickly tells me there is a lot of truth to the "we wanted him all along" idea that was put out there by the team.
Hes Pat Mahomes WOW?
My point is he doesn't jump off film.
Doesn't mean he needs to.
Hell, Tom didn't.
There is absolutely nothing to complain about with this pick. He wasn't a reach. Hes a solid, but not elite talent with a 1st round grade. The player's strengths map perfectly with the organization and system's needs.
I couldn't be happier
Thats what they sayHe is the best of quarterbacks, he is the worst of quarterbacks...
Eli? No way. I have been watching films like these since November 2020 when I said he was the heir apparent. I need to find my post about Mac and Barmore.This board may be shocked when I say this, but I actually like this pick. Bill had to take a QB. And the best part is that Bill did not have to give up anything unlike the imploding 9ers who gave up a ton for probably no reason.
I like Jones’s mechanics, very accurate and has a clean release. I know this is something you don’t want to hear, but his style reminds me of Eli Manning.
He is the best of quarterbacks, he is the worst of quarterbacks...
it was headed direct to the end zone, it was headed directly the other way.it was the best of passes, it was the worst of passes.....
