Matt Patricia, Joe Judge break down why Mac Jones wasn’t as bad as he looked against the Jets

On the surface, Mac Jones’ performance Sunday afternoon didn’t look that great.

He caught a pair of huge breaks after throwing a pick-6 that got called back because of a roughing the passer call, and having a pass that bounced off Isaiah Wynn’s helmet get dropped by a Jefs defender.

But, it wasn’t all bad. The Patriots pulled off a big divisional road win against the Jets. Jones went 24-35 for 195 yards and scored his first touchdown pass since getting injured against Baltimore.

On Tuesday, quarterbacks coach Joe Judge spoke to reporters via Zoom about why Jones’ performance was better than it appeared on paper.
