As we enter the 2022 NFL regular season, all New England Patriots fans attention are on second year NFL quarterback Mac Jones.

Patriots fans are interested to see his development in year two after a very successful rookie campaign in 2021.

After a Pro-Bowl replacement bid, the acknowledgment of his talent keeps on coming. Mac Jones recently was put on the NFL top 100 players list, as voted on by the players. Jones came in at number 85 on the actual list.

Mac Jones is earning the respect of NFL players from his play with the New England Patriots

The New England Patriots have their guy at quarterback with Mac Jones. He’s a guy that Patriots fans can hitch their wagons to and jump on the bandwagon for the long-term.

Think about in these terms. He came in as a rookie and went 10-7 for a team that had just went 7-9 the year before. Sure, the Patriots brought in more talent that off-season. But Mac made the most of the opportunity given to him.

He has NFL players raving about the way that he plays. One person in particular? All-Pro defensive end and former Patriot Chandler Jones. That’s a guy that knows a thing or two about getting to the quarterback in the NFL!

What Mac Jones has to do with the New England Patriots to move up the list

It’s very simple. Mac has to improve on what he did in year one. What can he do in order to show that improvement?

Start with game winning drives. We saw a flash of that last year in the Houston game. Show us that when it’s two minutes left and you’re down by one score, you can have a good game winning drive. Kind of like what a certain former Patriots quarterback could do on a consistent basis!

Show the mobility more in the pocket. Last season, it seemed like the former Alabama quarterback went down easily when it came to getting sacked. Move around in the pocket and make the proper throws.

Finally, keep the accuracy up. “Mac attack” was one of the most accurate quarterbacks in the NFL. Keep the accuracy at the same level or even a bit higher and we’ll really be in business.

The bottom line with Mac Jones and the New England Patriots

The bottom line is that it’s an honor for Mac Jones to be on the top 100 list as the quarterback of the New England Patriots.
