|Bill O’Brien: ‘I think Mac Jones is going to be just fine’
In the 2022 NFL season, Bill O’Brien was meant to be the panacea for what ailed Mac Jones.
Instead, under a new offensive coordinator in 2023, the former Alabama All-American’s completion and touchdown rates, as well as his average gain per pass and per completion, all decreased, while his interception rate increased.
Jones hasn’t taken a snap in the past four games after starting every game for the New England Patriots while healthy since joining the NFL franchise as the 15th choice in the 2021 draft.
After a 10-7 loss to the New York Giants on Nov. 26, the Patriots decided to go with Bailey Zappe at quarterback despite having the poorest record in the AFC at 2-9. They’ve won two of their last four games.
