QB Mac Jones Possible Dolphins Trade Target

I have always said that Mac Jones isn’t a bad QB, he was fine when he had an OC (Josh McDaniels) who dumbed things down for the rookie and didn’t ask him to do much that was outside of the skills he brought with him from college. Yes, he was limited. He had a lot of work to do to become a more well-rounded QB who could take advantage of his skills and not try to do too much. It worked pretty decently. He hit the rookie wall, and opposing Ds caught up with the limited playbook. And then Matt Patricia (OC) and Joe Judge (QB coach) happened and surprise surprise, Mac looked like shit. Then without doing anything to improve the team around him, they brought back Bill O’Brien. With limited skill position talent, and seemingly no changes to the basic gamelan, Mac was thrown out there and asked to do the impossible. They sucked. Mac sucked, Zappe sucked, and everyone except Stevenson sucked. And it was clear that they couldn’t keep Mac. He had to go. But they did him dirty. If he gets another shot at starting, I’ll be rooting for him, and I hope he gets some real NFL coaching and some NFL talent to throw to, with a half-decent line to keep him on his feet longer. I would hate it, but I’d laugh my ass off if he gets to start in Miami and gets to play the Patriots. If he won any of those games, I’d be happy for him. The Pats aren’t competitive this season anyway, so what’s another loss to Miami gonna mean other than a better draft pick?

Go Mac!
