I'm suprised they weren't able to trade him for a late round pick. He would still be a solid backup.

 

Too much baggage and too late in the season for a guy that looks done and likely wouldn't embrace the backup role.

It's a good thought, but historically McD has not been particularly great against rookie QBs

 

This is simply not true.  In his last 5 appearances against rookie QB's, he's won all 5.  

I think he's only lost once by a rookie since being a HC and that was against Darnold in 2018.

Yeah I asked him to name which ones and kinda had a feeling I would not get a response lol.

I have a feeling he was cut because he didn’t want to be a backup.  He has always said he was not worse than 32 other QBs in the NFL.

Good.  I'm not big on jones.  Better thrower but cams legs scared me more than his arm.  We suck when QBs leave the pocket...no fear of that with jones. 

This is still The Bills division. Jones will take his lumps this year and  I am excited for the year..

Cam will never back up another QB on purpose. Too big of an ego for that.

Could this be a vested veteran move?  Be just like Belichick to cut him, have all the NFL buzzing and then re-sign him and start him week 1.  The man is an evil genius.

This makes NE rather conventional.  Pocket passer with two good TEs and a fleet of running backs to run or catch swing passes.  

It is the typical Pats Offense, with a rookie QB for the first time since…. Bledsoe.  The pats I still expect to win 10-12 games mostly because of the D.  
 

oh most importantly, the Pats should have a top end O line.

I've been really impressed by Mac Jones play this preseason.

Delivers the ball quickly and on time and what's impressed me the most is his arm strength looks good on those 10-15 yard crosses.

Cam Newton looked awful. I actually think the Patriots are very firmly more of a threat to the Bills than the Dolphins and it wouldn't shock me if the Dolphins actually finish last in the AFCE. I think Wilson will look much better this year than people are prepared for, and will outshine Tua by leaps and bounds.
