I truly do believe people undervalue the mental aspect that happens to players when they perform poorly too and how it can effect their careers and performances. These are guys, for the most part, have been absolutely dominant their entire lives in order to get where they are. And you all of a sudden are on a team with Matt Patricia as your coach, in a fairly bad spot with little help around you. I do believe that can effect a player, some can shake it off. Particularly at QB. Some can’t. Mariota, Wentz still see ghosts and feels non-existent pressure after that Clowney hit and has never been the same sense, tons of examples over the years. Tannehill has been vocal about the mental aspects of shutting the bed against the Bengals a few years back and the backlash from fans.
Mac Jones looked legitimately good his rookie year and now looks like a shell of himself.
As someone who didn’t think he’d amount to anything at all: it’s been half a season on a dogshit team. Give the dude until the end of his rookie deal to pass judgement
So, who’s everyone’s bet to who he gets traded to? Little dead money on the last year of his deal
