Hebert19 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much baggage and too late in the season for a guy that looks done and likely wouldn't embrace the backup role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his last 5 appearances against rookie QB's, he's won all 5.

wjag Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) 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.

Estro Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 The Pats*** are going to be a handful, and painful to play and watch. They’ll be the 2nd best team in the division, not Miami. I still think Buffalo beats them because of Josh, but the games will likely be ugly. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, but unless I've missed it, I have not seen him throwing ropes on deep outs outside the numbers. Good QBs can do that, and it really opens up an offense. Don't get me wrong; NE's run game is probably going to be elite so they're going to be a tough out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of smash mouth football coming. We still haven’t seen the new TEs yet in the offense. NE has been “hiding” them. I’m going to have the Miami game on a second screen opening week. Should be interesting to see the match up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Lets get one thing out of the way, Beasley is a better WR at this stage of his career than Cam is a QB. BUT...they have very similar cap hits if they were to be cut. Maybe don't be shocked if Beasley is cut given McKenzies new vaccination and Stevenson in pre-season?

BigDingus Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 If both our games against the Pats weren't so late in the season, I'd say they should pull a Lawyer Milloy & sign him just for a bit of inside info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was actually having the best season of his career in 2018 but midway through the season had a rotator cuff injury which he has never recovered from. That shoulder injury is why he can't make throws anymore. It took away a core part of his game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be alright, i don't think he has a "great" season though. Teams blitz young QBs, and they are traditionally really inconsistent.
