I mean you guys were pretty silent with that 139 yard turd he laid last week. Didn't hear much about him from any of you.
But he lights up a team for 198 yards and 3 TDs this week (his 1st 3TD game right?) and the chest thumping starts right back up again like you never left.
Going silent isin't a 1-sided thing,...let's not even pretend like it is.
2nd,...I know you're not going to like to hear this, but he's not the complete package just yet. I know you see him as a 10 yr vet whenever he has one of these 199 yard games, but there are multiple levels he has to reach before he's fully arrived.
Case in point, Jimmy's "superb" year in 2019 where he was slobbered all over as well. Most of you ignored the inconsistencies in his game and promoted him to levels he hadn't achieved.
Sure enough come playoff time, when the competition was more fierce, he sputtered.
Will Mac Jones do the same? Will he become more consistent,...especially down the field? Will these 139 yard outings disappear? Will he rise to the level of competition again and again?
If you Mac Jones fans are so sure of him,....guarantee us these things NOW!
Otherwise,...it's just alot of extreme gloating over solid play. You'd think he just clinched an AFC CG birth with how excited some of you are that he plays like a competent NFL QB.
