Mac: "I want to be coached harder"

[Real fan 02]

Brady worked for 20 years, is in fact why it w

Jones cant make that throw, but Patricia will be blamed for it.

The GOATs pass will get there so slooow that the DB in front of Bourne will have a play on the ball. Thornton is also open in the middle for a TD. Look at all that real estate to the right, the next Buffalo DB is 10 yards away. But you have to burn a fastball low and away leading him to the right. The top NFL QBs have the psychical ability to make these types of throws day in and day out. Kirk Cousins does and everyone calls him a bum.

There are 4 facts.

1 - Mac Jones threw 3 passes in the Buffalo 40 mph wind. Cautious and wise? Yes, but trouble was already on the horizon. During the 2022 offseason, it was widely discussed and reported that Mac would be soliciting the services of QB Guru Tom House. Improving his arm strength was tops on the agenda.

2 - In 2021 NFL teams had virtually no pro game film on Jones, but that all changed in 2022. We see lots of new comer QBs like Mike White, Zappe and Cooper Rush who is 4 - 1 look like "The Guy" until the film gets broken down and they get exposed. After the Bears game, Zappe has a problem with batted down passes at the LOS. If Zappe ever sees the ball again, any DC with a clue will tell his defense to get their arms up when facing him.

3 - The 2021 Patriots relied heavily on its RBs and Defense. The 2022 Patriots opened up the offense and tried to go for chunk passing plays and bomb TDs. The INTs and losses followed.

4 - Every throw in your picture requires an "anticipatory passer." These QBs see the plays develop on the field before they happen. The ball is in the air before the WR or TE terminates his route. Like it or not, Zappe is an anticipatory passer. So is Brady, Rogers, Cousins, Allen, Burrows, etc, etc. The other type of QB is a "reactionary passer." Obviously, they prefer to see the player/play open before making their throw. Bledsoe and Mac are in this group. IMO, Mahomes is a hybrid reactionary - anticipatory passer.

orked... Is it

Tom Brady asked for advise from Tom House. Did you have a problem with that?

Mac threw 3 times in hurricane force wins and you see that as "trouble on the horizon"? GTFO of here.

The only thing I can say is.. it's very hard to judge this offense seriously this season.. it's so dysfunctional everyone in the offense we can't realistically judge until the krafts do the right thing, and make the executive decision directly after the second blow out loss coming week 17 at Buffalo.. and either promote Caley or get a proven, creative play caller. Until then we as fans, I feel can't really judge or even take this team on offense seriously this season. If we even had a top 15 offense we'd be in much better shape.

Yes, but they have got to find the best OL coach they can. Bring Popovich back or whoever they want, but someone who can give his full time to getting them ready.

I also wouldn't mind seeing a fullback come back through the door as the Pats like power running and it's the only thing we're halfway decent at.

Yea and to me there are no excuses for shortfalls on the coaching side, because there is no salary cap for coaching hires and no roster limit to coaches

BB has traditionally liked smaller coaching staffs, but he may need to bring in more assistants to help with this mess

He also needs to pony up the money to bring in a credentialed, high caliber OC. Zero excuses for cheaping out in this area

LOL, first career post on the forum. Well done

 

[notex]

Its pretty obvious Patricia isnt the long-term answer here. My thoughts: there wasn't a candidate available that BB wanted, so Patricia was the "interim OC".

Maybe there wasn't a candidate that BB liked to run the offense when Josh left, and BB kicked the can for a year until he could get "his guy" ... just a theory.

To fine tune his footwork and delivery. Not for ARM STRENGTH.

How many more INTs before you Mac Homers get it?

If Corky soils himself on national television, again, vs this Awful defense, then perhaps more will understand...

The Refs have bailed him out on 2 additional INTs.

Only qb that could function in this offensive offense is #12... becuase it would be his offense , he'd be calling the plays while Matt stares at his pencil eraser..

 

[PancakeBlockPaul]

Oh wow, you would turn it down. Very apropos because you were an NFL HC, right?

Anyone with balls takes a job they think they can do. It is his boss’s fault.

Not to mention the free paycheck. Does anyone know if FM would have gotten paid if he did nothing this year? Say if he sat at home….2fisting double quarter pounders rather than coaching…would he have been paid? If not I can’t blame him for taking the $. Many of us would do the same. I think he must still 2 fist qps even getting paid what am i thinking.

Warner on the play concepts:

“This year, it’s very basic and simple,” said Warner, via the Boston Herald’s Karen Guregian. “That doesn’t mean it’s bad. But for a guy like me, I’d be bored to death. I’d hate to have the same concepts over and over, even if they’re good quality concepts. I like creativity. I like options as a quarterback. And, they don’t do a lot of that.”

Belichick:

“I think we need to do what we’re doing better. I don’t think at this point making a lot of dramatic changes; it’s too hard to do that,” said Belichick,

The question is, if they are running the same quality simple concepts over and over, why can't the players perform them better?

Is it a matter of lack of talent? Poor execution? Ds figuring them out?

I'm not ready to assign the bulk of the blame on the coaching, albeit they are one of the problems. We can criticize the coaching all we want, but we've all seen passes being over thrown, dropped, not throwing to open receivers, penalties on the OL, etc. Bill has a point, players need to execute better.

No doubt, there’s been a gross number of offensive line penalties this year that have just completely destroyed drives

Mac wants to be coached harder first try throwing the football further.

I swear there are at least a dozen o-line penalties inside the 30 this year.

 

[patsfanfromoversea]

You are quit funny

 

[venecol]

Will a new OC allow Mac to make throws like this?

We are back to the Mac Jones isn't an anticipatory passer BS? That was raised early in the season, I think by you, and easily debunked last year as the season went on. Mac Jones is anticipatory passer.

I know you hate the guy, but stop making stuff up about the guy. The guy have very anticipation.

 

[Rob0729]

Seriously, the way some people talk about Mac Jones, you have wonder how he led Alabama to a national championship, selected in the first round, and was second in the OROY voting (and it took an historic year from Chase for Jones not to win it). We know he doesn’t have the superior physical skills, but to these people say he has never had pocket awareness, doesn’t have accuracy, is reactionary QB, etc.

I mean if you don’t have the physical or mental skills to be a QB, how was this guy even drafted? How did he beat out Bryce Young for the starting job in Alabama? Why did many of his college receiver say he was better than Tua at Bama?

Keep cherry picking to fit your narrative. Go back to Macs Pop Warner football games if you must.

I don't have the time or need to post all the videos of late throws that were dangerous passes or INTs. Look no further than Poyers takeaway last game. NE WRs and TEs are open every game, but Jones is afraid to throw because he his arm doesn't have the power. The Pats do not trust him. They did not trust him last year in Buffalo and they dont want to see more INTs than TDs now.

Patricia and Judge broke him.
