Simply put, Mac Jones is phenomenal. It is still a mystery how few teams didn’t go all in for the not so rookie quarterback. Teams like the Jaguars, Carolina, Denver, Detroit and Miami could’ve all gone for the talented quarterback, but for some mysterious reasons, none of them went for him.

One team’s loss is another team’s gain. Here, one team’s loss is another team’s future. The Patriots with Mac Jones look set to have hit lottery. While his performances have been simply outstanding this season, the scary part is how he seems to improve in each and every match.

Mac Jones and the New England Patriots humiliate the Browns

Last Sunday, the New England Patriots completely blew away the Cleveland Browns. Mac Jones was the wrecker in chief as poised elegance and piercing throws resulted in a 45-7 drubbing for the Browns. Be it the maturity displayed by him during the transitions, or his assertiveness in counter attack, Jones simply did not look like a rookie.

Coach Bill Belichick was super impressed by Mac’s performance but he insisted on the win being a result of team effort. “You couldn’t single anybody out,” Bill Belichick said. “That was really a great day for us today on so many different levels,” Belichick said. “Long touchdown drives. Turnovers. Competitive plays in the kicking game. Big plays after big plays by so many different people,” Bill concluded jubilantly.
