FOXBOROUGH, MA — Critics argued Tuesday that the Patriots’ quarterback, Mac Jones, was only a product of being a talented player in a system of elite defense and coaching, as they threw the rookie’s success as a flake of organizational competence. “People behave like Macs [Jones] is the next big franchise QB, but he’s only doing well because he has a complete set of skills and he’s surrounded by talent and coaches who know what to expect from their players, ”said Bills fan Derrick DiMaio, who claimed that Aaron Rodgers or Patrick Mahomes could be just as successful in a setup as Mac Jones has. “You remove his accuracy, his decision-making and the Patriots’ ability to develop players, and he would be nothing special. Just look at what it has done to Trevor Lawrence to have to do with no supporting role and a directionless, identityless organization. This is how Mac Jones would be if he was not used and guided properly. It’s all luck. ” At press time, Jets, Lions, Browns, Jaguars, Giants and Bears fans all wished their teams could be as lucky as the Patriots seem to be with their draft again and again each year.
