The New England Patriots came up short against Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphins in their home opener, but they can, and should, take solace in the fact that first-round pick and potential franchise quarterback Mac Jones looked exactly as good as we all thought he would be, overcoming the haters and doubters in the process.
Jones set a new record for completion percentage by a rookie in their first start with a minimum of 30 pass attempts.
