With NOOOO OL/Running game. 8 attempts: -1 yards77% completion percentage, 2 tds and 19 straight pass completions. Most for a rookie in 40 years. Id say he's doing good. And this was against a bucks defense that was in his face all night
It's just dissapointing that we are getting this play from our rookie QB and are 1-3
Did you see Trevor Lawrence last Thursday night? The guy has a rocket accurate arm and is mobile as hell. I would trade Mac for Lawrence in a nano second. Lawrence will be a top 3 qb in 2 yearsAfter 4 games, I am pretty confident Mac Jones will be in the NfL for at least 7-8 years. He has accuracy and acumen already, those will get honed with experience
His ceilling is still uncertain. His has to improve his footwork, has to get a better Zip on the ball and trust himself more to go downfield. All workable stuff to some degree.
Right now, I would not trade Mac for any other rookie QB this year
Tbh, I did not. I almost put him as an Exception tho based on raw skill alone, but you know, better to end on a emphatic noteDid you see Trevor Lawrence last Thursday night?

I'd probably make that trade but I'm not as confident as you are in Lawrence. I wasn't impressed with him he looked lost. Burrow on the other hand I'd trade and add draft picks to the pot to get him, but he's not a rookie.Did you see Trevor Lawrence last Thursday night?

I sometimes wonder what game some of you are watching? What channel was your game on? Because on the channel I watched. I saw a QB 4 games into his NFL career stand in the pocket against the rush, move when he had to (more often than not) and deliver ball after ball knowing he was about to get hit. I did not see jitters. The kid moved when the rush was around him and did everything he could to make a play. A jittery QB with no "cool factor" does not take a dozen hits and complete 19 passes in a row...especially a rookie.Jones needs better poise, at times he looked scared, jittery when the rush is around him. His cool factor needs work, but that will get better with time and hopefully it'll give his coaches confidence to go for it on 4th and short.
That was a tight games where jones needed to be perfect,he wasn't. There are always things that could be improved, and his performance when things break down is one of them. He made a lot of great throws, but threw a pick. He'll get better no doubt, but I wanna see no int when things are this tight. I also blame Bill for not going for it.I sometimes wonder what game some of you are watching? What channel was your game on? Because on the channel I watched.
