We knew Mac Jones seemed in control during his first-ever start with the New England Patriots on Sunday against Miami, but we had no idea he was this cool a customer.
Jones dotted plenty of receivers en route to a 29-of-39, 281-yard day that looked like a prototypical five-year veteran’s season opener. He was poised, able to raise and deliver mid-range strikes all over the field. He evoked a young Tom Brady, if a young Tom Brady had actually won a National Championship and orchestrated the most explosive offense in college football one year prior.
