Jones wanted to get away from the Patriots and the numerous followers that hate him. BB (Invoice Belichick) ruined this child after his first yr. Matt Patricia being the Offensive (coordinator), what a joke. Than there’s the OL, no receivers, no TE and simply unhealthy teaching. I’m glad he’s doing nicely. I hope (Eliot) Wolf and firm will not do the identical to (Drake) Maye. Get him an actual OL so he’s protected. We’ll see concerning the receivers – appear to be higher than what Jones obtained. The TE group remains to be marginal at greatest. — Invoice
He’s doing nice towards third stringers the final 2 video games wow so pleased with Mac lol. Get a grip individuals. — Commerce em
