So forget the hall of fame.. according to you, he is already Tom Brady? Mac Jones will quarterback his teams to seven Super Bowls in his career? You’re bypassing the guy being an all pro, winning an MVP or two.. instead of that you are going straight to the greatest of all time? The hyperbole is as thick as John Carpenter’s The Fog.

Ahhh.. a fellow Polish last name.. thankfully mine is much more simple.

He talks like a programmed robot void of any personality whatsoever. Belichick probably just sat him down and said “you are going to say one of five things to the media no matter what they ask you, and here’s what they are.” I’ve heard some people ask if the Pats can win a SB with Jones. The answer is a resounding yes. I have seen Denver win a SB with Peyton Manning who was a complete shell of himself. The defense was both the offense & defense on that team. Now.. that was obviously a furious defense that didn’t even allow opposing teams to run an offense. To sum this up I said it before and I’ll say it again.. others have already mentioned it: Let’s not be prisoners of the moment. The kid is a rookie who happens to be performing well thus far. No more, no less. Let’s not put him in the hall of fame just yet.

🤦‍♂️

It proved that the Bills can beat a team that they should beat.. and they beat them soundly. It also proved that the Jets are truly pitiful.

I miss the red helmets. If the wear the white jerseys they should wear blue bottoms and vice versa. It just seems a lot more pleasant to the eye imo. The all white uni’s complete with the white helmet just seems over the top to me. Who are we? The ghosts?

Well Matt Cassel did take the Chiefs to the playoffs one year and that had nothing to do with Bill. Garropolo also has talent but he is fragile and inconsistent. Both of these QBs are not exactly straight up bums. They do have some talent. Bill didn’t really change any of that. He had Bledsoe in New England and all the papers were calling for his head his second season in. I think the Pats went like 5-11 and were 0-2 when Brady stepped in so Belichick was already on the hot seat. How quickly people forget. It’s almost as though we just eliminate anything that Belichick did before Brady including his forgettable stint with Cleveland. People tend to forget that as a head coach, Bill accomplished absolutely nothing before Brady. His winning percentage as head coach was well below .500 Yet he’s better than Vince Lombardi, Bill Walsh, Tom Landry, Joe Gibbs and Bill Parcells?

Thank you.

Well to be fair, Brady has masked a lot of Bill’s mistakes over the years. What QB has Belichick succeeded with other than with Tom? Garropolo is made of glass, Bledsoe was about to get Bill fired before Brady stepped in and what did Bill do with Testaverde? Nothing. Belichick is a master… as long as Brady is his QB or if Parcells is the head coach.

People like to be prisoners of the moment. Some things never change.

Please tell me you are joking. Can Allen have around five deep playoff runs at least? Until then it’s Jim Kelly.

Excellent post. The Montana/Young comparison actually made me shudder a bit. One hall of fame QB followed by another hall of fame QB?? What are the chances? Favre/Rodgers, Montana/Young… it has happened before but it’s obviously atypical to say the least. No one can know for sure but it’s fun to speculate. I have seen my share of highlights and lowlights of Jones. One thing that I hate (as a Bills fan) is that he is not easily flustered. He makes a bad read, throws a bad pass, fumbles etc.. and he does not let it affect his next series. He does have a calmness about him which reminds me of Brady & Montana but I hate to even mention him with those two because it’s ridiculous. As a rookie QB he gets an A so far. Can I name 10 QBs in the NFL that I would rather have than Mac Jones? Probably not. But again.. the sample size is tiny so far. I would take him over Jimmy Garropolo though. Is that saying much? It is also noteworthy that the Pats have spent a ton of money this past offseason. The team is underrated and honestly hasn’t always been well coached since Brady left. It’s been a mixed bag. Say Jones comes out this week and has a pitiful performance complete with fumbles and picks. Will we be having this conversation? To me this is all prisoner of the moment stuff until Jones has three or four seasons under his belt. Durability is essential as well.. all remains to be seen.
