It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Look, I did come off like an a**hole with my response and for that I apologize. We good?You might want to read up on my posts before commenting next time. The moment we picked Mac Jones I became a supporter of his. Before he was picked I vented but once he was the selection I have been nothing but complimentary towards him
This year is a mulligan, but I felt like that no matter what. Teams don't win jack **** when they've won the offseason Lombardi because it takes time to learn a system.If Mac Jones beats cam newton out, honestly that's a good sign that he's legit. Or it could be that cam newton is cooked.
Only thing is how many rookies have gotten to the playoffs? Let alone won a game.
Yeah me too, but now I'm feeling like, bring it, Cam - give us a good problem to have!Let’s just say i will be very surprised if newton plays all 16 games and Jones sits. I know bill respects newton but his best days are behind him. It’s the beginning of the mac jones era!!!!
crap, didn't think about that. We should have drafted a second year proIf Mac Jones beats cam newton out, honestly that's a good sign that he's legit. Or it could be that cam newton is cooked.

He really wanted to come to the Patriots. Just like Taylor Hall with the Bruins . That’s a good thing.

Twenty years ago, Michael Vick was the number one pick in the draft. Drew Brees was the second quarterback chosen at position 32. I think that the Pats may have gotten this year's Brees and the Bears ....?Comments:
a.) I will have to see the schedule on May 12th before commenting on when *I think* Mac Jones will start a game. IMO, it likely will follow a BYE week.
b.) Cam likely is the week 1 starter, but if his arm/shoulder looks bad or he turns over the ball a lot....Mac will be starting sooner, IMO.
c.) Do we trade Stidham now? I would trade Stiddy and a 6th to move up in round 5 or something....then again if Cam breaks down...we would need a back up...but I hate having 3 QB's on the roster....prefer the depth elsewhere.
d.) It doesn't bother me that Jones will be compared to Fields...to me the equation is: Fields+2022 first rounder+fourth rounder+2021 fifth rounder > Mac Jones...and clearly the Patriots brass felt that Fields wasn't 1+4+5 better than Jones.
Maybe Bill wants to be the first coach to win the Super Bowl with a rookie quarterback.crap, didn't think about that. We should have drafted a second year pro
I don't think he differentiates after the "win the Super Bowl" part... but what do I know, I'm not telepathicMaybe Bill wants to be the first coach to win the Super Bowl with a rookie quarterback.

Lamar Jackson
He started the last 7 games rookie season and went 6-1 ... team was 4-5 before that.... they got to the playoffsHe didn't start until year 2 though, right?
