The numbers do not talk about everything.The same is true for one pre -season game.But Mac Jones showed sufficient work in the Precious professional debut.Cam Newton had never changed much from the last time in the NFL field.
It was Jones who played the leading role in the Washington Football Team on Thursday 12th (Thursday) for several months since he was nominated for the 15th place in the 2021 NFL draft.In a game where New England Patriots won 22 to 13, his five drives created the highlights of the game.
Rookies from Alabama University showed smart and decisive places as Newton's relief, sometimes safe and aggressive.The best slow of this game is the 34 -yard pass that Jones throws deep into the left side line with the first possession and spilled out of the fingertips of the Wide Receiver (WR) Christian Will Carson.Immediately before that, I was passing the WR Kendrick Bourne from the line backer (LB) and the safety (S).
"That was the best ball from Mac," said Will Carson, who said after the match, Mike Giardi of NFL Network (NFL Network)."I have to do a better job to match that."
Jones, who finished his first drive in the field goal, would have learned how fast this level was.There was a space that could be scrambled with the remaining two yards of the third down, but it was defeated from behind and did not clear.In the third quarter, a short pass was decided continuously from the beginning and led a long drive again, but he stalled before the Red Zone in Washington and ended up with a field goal.Nevertheless, it was an impressive flow while Patriots played with no huddles, assuming the situation of two mines.
Finally, Jones has shown the sharpness of his perception that it would not be strange to be in a draft earlier in some parts.With 24 yards of third down, he found WR General Orchesky in downfield, but the ball passed his eyes.The record has now been successfully successful in 19 attempts, 87 yards.Sack was one time, and the first path was accidentally recorded as In Complete.It can be said that it is an event full debut.
Jones has definitely gained respect for his competitors.
"He came to me before going out, talked about his expectations," said Newton later."Excitement, anxiety, all the young Quarterbacks are experienced. He wants to be very perfect and is always preparing for it. I am impressed with that. I am so young.If you know how to prepare, and when Josh (McDaniels / Attack Coordinator) asks questions or someone asks a question, you have the answer. "
"Everyone is different, each way of learning is different. But today's performance will only improve and we will be here for each other with this process."
Patriotz's head coach (HC) Bills Berritic showed a little more cautious approaches.
"I think and think about the video," he told reporters."There are a lot of good parts, there are many parts that can be improved. It's the same as everyone else."
It definitely includes Newton.Former MVP seemed to have been fumble in the opening possession of New England, but it was judged that his arm was moving forward when he was assaulted by Defensive End (de) Chase Young, who had been protected.It was recorded as Complete.Newton succeeded in four short passes from Punt, and then left the job to the receiver.The possession ended with a field goal, Newton succeeded in seven atmop four times and finished with 49 yards.
The debate about which QB will start in the first match of Patriots next month has just begun.
