I’ve seen a lot of stuff about how Mac Jones has been put in such a poor situation, but let’s look at Devito who has also been put in a poor situation. Let’s also remember that DeVito is playing against a much better defense than Mac is playing against.
Giants vs Pats roster
TEs: Pats better
Wrs: Pats better(at least they have some names you could recognize) Hyatt played great, but he hasn’t been great in the season
OL: Pats better(Giants let up so many sacks)
RBs: Giants(pats still have solid rbs)
Mac rating: 27.8
Devito rating: 103.9
Let’s remember that Devito actually threw a bunch of passes 10 yards past the line of scrimmage while Mac attempted very few. The few he threw were nearly intercepted. You can’t blame this on the other players and the coaching staff.
Also, Mac has a pff of 59 which is terrible for qbs(excluding today), which factors out who the skill players are. DeVito is worse, but is close, and he’s supposed to be trash(and maybe he had a great pff grade today).
So which starting qbs would you take Mac over? Would you even take Mac over Zach Wilson now(honestly I’m not sure now )?
Pats literally have THE worst WR corp in the league. Outside of Douglas there’s not a single WR I want back on this team next year.
I’d gladly take Slayton, Wandale and Hyatt over every other WR in this team.
