Mac as 2024 Pats QB still possible

[Steve102]

Well he can't say "Mac sucks and I can't wait to deal him" and watch his already low value plummet to zero value. He has to build him up in order to get anything for him.

 

[Ross12]

Hard pass.

Mac is incapable of that

it basically means that the team knows Jones acts as a Diva and they don't want to play with him anymore, source within the pats organization

If Mayo can somehow turn Mac around and wind the clock back to the first half of 2021, I’m all in favor of it.



Does he own a DeLorean?

I've said this before and I'll say it again - if Kraft forced Mac on BB, why wouldn't he do the same to Mayo especially if he's convinced BB sandbagged Mac?

Mac being at the conference was no accident.

He sure as hell isn't going to say he sucks, no one likes him, we'll try and dump him if they want to get anything in a trade then again, he might stick around as depth.

Jerod Mayo might stick with rostered Patriots quarterback in 2024

Jerod Mayo's comments about the Patriots roster have some believing the Mac Jones experience may not be over in 2024.

I appreciate your efforts trying to soften the blow to the faithful here.
Unfortunately few will accept it until they see 10 out there starting Game 1.
This decision is already done and dusted, just like the HC search.

Better get used to this song.

Mac is like the girl at the prom in HS you don't want to dance with.

 

[varjao]

I think with a new coach and hopefully some improvement in the offense that would kinda look like a reset and new environment for Mac but what if the rookie QB is ready faster than expected and then you have to promote him and bench Mac again

Nah, no more drama.

Vets like Flacco and Dalton deal much better with this situation. Let Mac cry somewhere else.

He is in his 4th year, if he suddenly starts playing well early in the season you may have a QB controversy for nothing with a rookie head coach, knowing he is not the answer so just move on and trade him for whatever you can get.

 

[Dedhampatsfan]

Too much negative baggage even as a backup.

Yep, he doesn't have much respect around the league. Time for him to go.

Because it didn’t work the first time, why would Mac being forced a second time work?

Perhaps that why Kraft fired Belichick.

So why take the same approach with a new HC? I doubt Mac sucked squarely because of Bill.

I doubt it too.

I'm saying, the owner's convinced that Mac's the guy, so Mac's the guy until even Bob Kraft figures it out.

God help us all if he’s convinced Mac’s the guy.

I thought the goal was to get people to want to watch these games

I mean, if Kraft is truly convinced that Mac just needz moar time, and Bill Belichick was holding him back - well, presumably those folks would watch the True MacCorkle Jones (tm).

 

[Grogan14]

He had his chance and he bombed it. No going back. Release him. I do not think anyone would even give up a 7th

Solid reporting by Sarah. Lol

"But there is also some chatter about Mayo sticking with Jones for at least the final year of his contract."
