Matt Patricia needs to be out as the Patriots’ offensive play-caller. That’s if they don’t want Mac Jones’s promise to be wasted.

Patriots

Mac Jones has been set up to fail this season.

Matt Patricia was given offensive play-calling duties after coordinator Josh McDaniels left to become head coach of the Raiders.

If Bill Belichick wants to keep Matt Patricia on his staff and in his tight circle of trust beyond this season, yeah, sure, fine, go ahead.

Slide him into the old Ernie Adams role as the unofficial director of football omnipotence. Have him help out as sort of a Matt of all trades, perhaps with an emphasis on his defensive acumen.
