![Every Mac Jones TD for Alabama in 2020 [MAC JONES HIGHLIGHTS] | CBS Sports HQ](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Sxui8CmZ0QE/mqdefault.jpg)
I think it’s hilarious that people were saying there’s NO WAY Mac Jones could possibly run a 5 second 40-yard dash in testing. Then he ended up running a 4.7 at pro day!😆😂🤣
many haters on him from the media; espn, nfl net, etc.; they all kiss ass malhome.
There ARE guys that are just more athletic than they look. He looks like a book worm or a Math Major, but his speed and vertical are good enough for the NFL. It happens.
@@harrykirk7415 His muffin top rivals Joy Taylor’s.
Man, I wasn't a huge fan of Mac Jones originally and thought he relied on the talent around him, but after watching a handful of videos, I think he'll be one heck of a QB at the next level. He throws a really good, catchable ball, and his eye work is absolutely phenomenal.
People are sleeping on Mac because of preconceived notions.
But Mac has everything to succeed
Good not great arm
Good footwork
Great pocket presence
Doesn’t run a lot but when he does he can get you a first down with an open lane
Good processor
Good ball placement
I have him as my QB3, when I see Mac’s ball placement,pocket awareness, and processor I honestly see Brady. I see that as his ceiling sure he doesn’t have a cannon nor will he run a 4.6 but he has the potential to be elite in every category except athleticism. I think he can be great
Edit: Same comparison , they say great minds think alike 😅
Another Edit: Not my QB3 but I still stand by everything I said. Mac can be a very good QB in the league...
Very Brady-ish guy I def agree
Brady has a better arm for sure but all the stuff you mentioned about footwork/processing defenses is totally reminiscent of Brady. I see a successful career with at least a couple pro bowls in the future
I think he has a pretty great arm in his long balls
Amen about the Brady comparison. I hope the Falcons get him with their new coaches and athletic director
@@dhuck470 Brady threw a pass about 75 yards in a super bowl against the giants. Mac was underthrowing receivers on 60-65 yard passes. HOWEVER, his long ball placement is incredible if it's within his range (50ish yards)
He lead the nation in completions and qbr, so there's that. He doesn't miss much, no one is perfect.
I'm a ALABAMA FAN...the way y'all talk he should go #1
Don't forget yards per attempt
The best part of his game is his recognition, read, release
The heir to the Patriot Dynasty right here
He might not be our guy this year, but I feel the next 10 + years are going to be full of great football in New England. This guy is going to take us back to the promise land!!! Lezzzgoooo
My favorite thing about Mac is his fire and competitiveness. I completely agree with your sense that he seems like a guy who will carry himself with a chip on his shoulder to prove people wrong and work his ass off at a 110% level like Brady.
Why dont they show all the hits Mac takes sometimes in order to complete his receptions. I'm watching the hits he is willing to take to make his completions. Mac is one tuff cookie. I also notice he puts a heck of a lot of revolutions on the ball. That might be a big part of that ball traveling so fast.
He has the overhead arm combined with the rotation and wrist flip to make that ball zing and I'm sure he sets his Pointer straight to get that extra low Zip trajectory ...superman throwing motion! If you weren't trained as a Quarterback You have no Idea what I'm talking about.
His QB details are great...great video
Your example at 426 is demonstrating Jones' arm strength in a tight window outside of the numbers. He doesn't step into the throw. That is a demonstration of his arm strength without using his lower body to generate power.
Did you see some of the hits he took...especially against Georgia? He sacrificed his body in order to get his completions. Wow what a warrior! The receivers aren't the only players taking the hits. Did you see how quickly he recovered that football after he dropped it...and still got his completion. Man his reflexes are super quick. He has really made Alabama great!
Amazing work by Tim Jenkins. I really appreciate all the work he puts into his breakdowns. I've been watching football for about 7 years and I have learned a ton watching these videos. Grew up liking the Broncos(and still a big fan of them) but never paid enough attention to the games. Much love brotha. Thanks for the time you take putting these videos together.
This is the most complete video breaking down football I have ever seen!
Dude, I've watched a TON of tape and different people's breakdowns and I think yours has been the best. Great Job!
Search Qb school. By far the best
No this is the best
ALL 5 of the projected 1st round quarterbacks, not just Jones, but all 5 of them played on offenses with vastly superior talent to almost every defense they played. Remember, Jones was carving up SEC defenses. Yet this criticism is only used against Jones in the sports media. It's ridiculous.
This kid is insanely impressive. The awareness to place the ball in order to protect his receivers is next level shit.
I've been waiting for this one. Thank you! Awesome stuff. I was super cold on Mac Jones a few months ago but have been warming up to him quite a bit. I've always dreaded Alabama and Ohio State QBs but this kid just seems Bradyesque. I would not mind if the Broncos drafted him this spring at #9 personally.
If you guys liked this video check out Max Brownes breakdown of Mac Jones. USC QB also played under Sarkisian, brings in a unique perspective!
ruclips.net/video/g4vjNGS-V-w/видео.html
Mac reminds me of a young Matt Ryan
I’ve been waiting for this for soooo long.
Appreciate you watching!
How do more people not know how amazing Jones is? Might be the best QB in the draft way underrated.
I agree bro, he’s frowned upon because of all the weapons around him so people instantly throw the “he was carried by najee, devonta & his great offensive line” and it’s BS. Devonta wouldn’t have had the year he did if it wasn’t for Mac, I love when people doubt him though, he’s done nothing but continuously prove people wrong. Roll Tide
He's the most ready and complete QB in the draft IMO, he does so many more of the little things than the other guys, even Lawrence. Best pocket presence/fastest reaction to pressure, fastest progressions, best touch, best accuracy, 1st or 2nd best deep ball (some fools spout the nonsense about him not having a great arm but watching any film quickly disproves that). Literally the only thing he doesn't have is great wheels, but he can give you a 10 yard run here and there; he's not a statue. How many years do non-mobile QBs win the Super Bowl.. people overvalue mobility in QBs anyway. But I guess he doesn't have a 2394873 inch vertical and run a 4.5 so he's the 4th best QB in the draft.. sigh
@@EB-bl6cc I totally agree bro. Is it bad I’m higher on Zach Wilson & Mac Jones than I am Justin Fields, Trey Lance & in some categories TLaw?
@@EB-bl6cc IMO Lawrence and Fields have better ball placement, Wilson and Fields throw the best deep balls, Lawrence has the fastest processing speed, they all have good pocket presence, everyone else can extend plays and have much stronger arms. And he very much can’t get you 10 yards, have you seen him run? 10 yards is like his season total, the guy is a stick in the mud for sure. Vs OSU he ran for the first and got up so awkward like you can tell he’s not built for that. His arm isn’t bad by any means but he can’t sling it like Lawrence, Fields, Wilson, and Lance. And I mean his teammates are the best players in the country so I can see why people discredit his body of work and his game didn’t seem to elevate them, it seemed like they elevated him. Burrow was in the same boat a year ago but he was the best player on his team Mac is top 5 and number 5 on his team. Also Burrow who isn’t a strong arm guy has a much stronger arm, is an athlete, progresses fast, is more accurate, and was overall a better player than Mac has been.
@@zachtownsend8251 Only category I can see that on is Arm strength maybe... Lance and Fields are up there in arm strength so I don’t know about one arm being for sure strong but I’m not high on Wilson. I like him and he seems like he’ll succeed but I like Fields and Lawrence more but have him right next to Lance IMO.
Watch out if Shanahan gets a hold of him. He's ready now.
God plz NOOOOOO. Fields or Wilson
pro reads and offense system with good accuracy. he just doesn’t pop physically like every ab in this draft arm talent as well
Big Mac is more than ready
Every great QB has real weaknesses, this makes it easier for the coach to manage his team so that the weaknesses are resolved, because we already know the problem, when the weaknesses are resolved, what remains is the greatness of the QB
Trevor Lawrence next. I've heard nothing but great things about him. I'd appreciate your take
I don't see Lawrenece as living up to his pre college hype.
@@zachhayes9512I couldn’t agree more.
Trevor is great
Mac makes his receivers look good
I watched EVERY SINGLE ONE of your analysis. Absolutely LOVE THEM. I play dynasty superflex fantasy football. QB position is extremely important. In this upcoming NFL draft, we might have perhaps the best QB class since 1983 and 1999. The fantasy community totally are in love with Trey Lance. Why? Because of Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen. Both QBs were extremely raw coming into the NFL. Jackson has the best rushing ability since Michael Vick and Allen has the best arm in 2018 QB class. Allen in college had 50ish% completion and he still did have 50ish% completion in the first two years of NFL career. He finally broke out this year with the addition of Digg as WR. Why people talk so highly about Lance is because of his upside - great rushing ability, great arm, but not accurate. Meanwhile, Mac Jones, perhaps the most accurate QB in this class, is not being looked too highly among the NFL because he doesn't have mobility. That's the challenging question for me - who to draft in my fantasy draft? Mac Jones, a potential Tom Brady clone, or Lance, a potential Josh Allen with better rushing ability.
Well it doesn't get muçh better than Brady so if he is what has won the most superbowls then Mack could also. I just hope the Falcons get him, if so I'll have to watch the NFL again instead of just college. Lol
Stop comparing him to Brady. Brady isn't the GOAT but damn. Jones is good but not amazing. It's not his non-mobility that people say he's not a top 3 QB, it's the fact that he has 2 Heisman WRs and a Heisman RB. Then throw in Metchie and it's understandable why he isn't looked at as a top 3 or 4 QB in the draft. He might be the sleeper QB of the draft and turn out to be the best in the draft.
@@C_Ase_Ce Joe Burrow's WRs last year were bad; therefore, he was the no. 1 pick last year.
@@jonny5370 Not that it really matters, but are you referring to Burrow @ LSU or in the NFL? Either way he had or has great receivers and a good RB. Bengals just need an O-line. But if you referring to LSU, he had Jefferson and Chase. Jefferson was easily the best Rookie receiver in the NFL and Chase is considered the #2 (some even say #1) WR in the draft and he missed an entire year.
Another great video. As a Jets fan, I'm tied of hearing the likes of Todd McShay saying that Sam Darnold is only slightly worse than Deshaun, and Mel Kiper saying that they should draft a 170lb receiver at 2. It's great to actually hear someone justifying their opinions with detailed analysis. I'm learning so much and am looking at games completely differently since I started watching your videos.
Thank you for watching Stan!
I'm a die-hard Bama fan and Smith is an incredible. Absolutely incredible but in my opinion, I take Penei Sewell at 2. Franchise LTs don't grow on trees and you can get great receivers in 2nd round.
@@paulrobinson3213 for sure, it's basically the reason you shouldn't take RBs in the first round either, although to a slightly lesser degree
@@EB-bl6cc Got to be a true 3 down back
@@paulrobinson3213 Personally I’d take smith over Sewell. I get how important that LT spot is but those franchise receivers are just as hard if not harder to find. And a prospect like Smith is rare to find, he screams franchise great to me, when I watch him play it gives me father to son talks in future about how the sports announcer on TV was 5’10 160 and the best receiver back when he played. Even though this year’s receiver pool is deep nobody is as dominant as Smith. This year the Ravens lost Stanley and everyone’s first thought was how poor the receiver core was and not how bad the offensive tackles were. If Lamar had a Smith, that would’ve taken a huge load off his shoulders now that he has a reliable outside threat.
Another channel that actually breaks down film and makes valid points instead just repeating the national media BS. You are one of a few. We appreciate it. Good work! Don't worry about the drawing we get it.
Exactly then the fans or trolls start saying the same thing with nothing to really prove the point
I hate player comps, but I can't watch Mac Jones and not see Matt Ryan. Which I love Matt Ryan as a Falcons fan and if you can get a Matt Ryan in the draft especially in the mid to late 1st you take that imo. I know a lot of people would see me saying this as an insult, thats why I had to clarify. Idk why players like Ryan get so much hate. They're good qbs
That's exactly who I see when I watch Mac. Idk why Ryan gets so much hate either, he's a really good QB. I'm not a Falcons fan but Ryan has been one of my favorite QBs to watch over the years, I appreciate his game so much.
Matt Ryan's hate was the result of the offensive play calling (offensive coordinator).. They expected Matt to sit back there and throw bombs down the field.. Ryan kept getting sacked and made the line look bad becus of it.. Which becus of that the other team knew.. So they focused on the run thus made the run game look bad... It all works hand and hand..
@@AlabamaPoe exactly. Having these 5 to 7 drop backs with long developing routes while the other team is sending 5 or more is just bad playcalling
As a Bama fan I agree. Ryan has NEVER been the problem with the Falcons. Bad coaching and bad defense IMO
@@AW-zy1kw go back to 2017 and go see what the draft community was saying about Patrick Mahomes before he was even drafted. People think he came out of nowhere, but he didnt.
Just found your page two days ago, already watched all your recent QB videos. Good work.
I’m a panther fan just holding my breath we could end up with Fields/Wilson/Lance. All three have enough potential. Before I watch this video, I don’t want Mac Jones mostly due to his arm talent.
Thanks for watching mitchell!
What’s up fellow panthers fan I agree with fields and Wilson that’s my first two options but I disagree I would take Mac Jones over trey lance but that’s my opinion. I believe we may have to try and trade up with jets or dolphins tho to get who we want. Same as well just found his channel yesterday and watched all the qb breakdowns and believe I agree with all of them and finally found someone that’s not hyped on trey lance
@@AllThingsQB great breakdowns bro and thank you send over that breakdown of Lance to panthers gm and save us not that I think we was going to take him but a lot of mock drafts got us taking him. I think rhule really liked what he saw out of Mac so let’s see what happens for some reason I really like Zach Wilson!! If not I’m fine if we can land Fields or even Jones
Yes! The next Tom Brady! 4500 yards. 41 touchdowns.
He will never be the next Tom Brady. No one will be. Only problem is that he isn't mobile enough to escape the pocket in the NFL to buy time because he play behind a superior OL with NFL 1st Rd talents around him plus he mostly play in a shot gun and spread formations. When he had someone I his face where he will face a lot in the NFL, I don't think he will survive.
I think if you put him in Indy with an RPO based scheme combined with a really good run game where he doesn't have to throw all the time you will get the best out of him. Kinda similar to Tannehill in that sense
he’s better than tannerhill rn
I’ve seen enough. Mac to start Niners + Dickerson behind Alex Mack for a season. At WORST means a decade of playoffs without a ring. At best a handful of bling. Excellent analysis but too complex for the whow crowd. Thank you Sir.
Tell me about it only the old schools ones can see the true value in Mac Jones.
Yes.
Alex Smith was the number one draft pick and has lasted 13 seasons, usually as a starter. At the NFL combine, Smith recorded a 4.7 time in the 40-yard dash, and had a 32-inch vertical leap. This is exactly the same as MAc Jones. MJ looks less athletic to sports writers apparently, but the numbers say different It's not record setting, but he fits in the NFL pretty well
Yes
This is a great break down.How people just refuse to watch the games with an predetermined opinion about his talent just blows my mind.Anyone trying to say he’s a one read quarterback is completely blind.There isn’t anything about his game that an honest unbiased football evaluator can really grade really bad.
Great breakdown, thanks so much! Trevor Lawrence next week please!
Trevor Lawrence next.
I’m excited to see some of the criticisms around him. I’ve watched about 3-4 games of his throws. I think there is plenty to work for him to do, but I still have him in my top 2. I put him very slightly behind Zach Wilson only because there were some throws that Wilson made that I haven’t quite seen Lawrence match yet.
You clearly haven’t watched very much Trevor Lawrence film
@@CLEMSONtiger300 have you watched Zach Wilson film? I love Trevor Lawrence, but he's right. Zach Wilson makes throws that I haven't seen anyone but Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Rodgers make. It's not saying Lawrence isn't good. It's just Zach Wilson has some very difficult throws that he makes routinely.
@@CLEMSONtiger300 yeah like I said, I’ve gone through about 3-4 games from last and this season. Plenty more to watch. To expand - Wilson has made throws that I HAVE NOT seen Trevor make, not that I doubt he can make. A good example is the cross field throw against Utah. Lawrence, from the film I’ve seen, has far more consistent ball placement. They are at different stages of development and I think Wilson has a slightly higher upside. Lawrence is further along.
@@evanthompson4186 FIrst off I have not watched Wilson so he may indeed be great BUT that said he played absolute garbage competition and they lost to the only good team they faced. Couldn't get it done and it was Coastal Carolina not Ohio State.
@@AW-zy1kw competition is a baseless argument for those that don't have another. Hes throwing to 2 and 3 star receivers and being protected by 2 and 3 star olinemen. So the talent is the same across the board. He still had really tight windows and pressure in his face a lot. Are we really gonna pretend there isn't a major talent gap between Ohio State and Northwestern? I'd say that's more than BYU and Boise State. That is a non argument. Judge the player not the team.
@All Things QB - Hosted by Tim Jenkins what program are you using for this (the film analysis?)
Nice break down. I enjoyed watching it.
Huge Niners fan here. I don’t question selecting Mac Jones as a QB but I do question the Niners decision to give up 2 future first rounders and a third rounder to move up 9 spots in the draft. I really believe we could’ve moved up to 7 and trade with Detroit for far less since Detroit is short on picks this year and we have a total of 9. I don’t see other QB needy teams like New England, Chicago, or Washington giving up even more than we did to move to #3 with Miami. Just poor management of draft assets.
I really like Tim, he's just so nonchalant, easy going and knows how to dissect the plays. He also reminds me of one of the actors (Patrick Van Horn) in the older movie "Swingers" ,,,lol One of my fav. movie.
Great breakdown
Dude ive said Mac is ready since 2 seasons ago. Just because he come in as a 3 star everyone has counted him out. He is super smart, has a good not great arm, but makes decisions so fast. I can't wait to see him in the league. You know growing up it was all the people my dad watched in collage in the league. Now its getting to be all my guys i grew up watching and it has made the league a lot more appealing to me personally.
NFL level throws everywhere. The TD in the end zone rolling left, throws a rocket for the TD (Rich). I agree he falls back on some throws. Gotta step in...stab the foot.
Everyone is hyping up Kellen Mond because of his senior bowl, so I'd like to see a breakdown on him or Davis Mills
I thought Mond looked poor lol Elinger looked much much better.
@@kalilg2242 I didn't watch any film on the QBs, but a crap load of scouts and youtubers I watched said he looked phenomenal, especially in the game
I'll give you a Mond breakdown: He was an average at best cfb QB. The guy is flat terrible.
@@AW-zy1kw Ah, thank you so much! Sounds like you know your stuff!
@@swiftfire8513 I am no QB guru but I watched him at TAMU for four years. He has NEVER been a difference maker. For every great play he will have two bad ones. Just my opinion but he has never been a polished passer and will not make an NFL team. I could be wrong, have been before.
Quick answer. Yes.
Another thing is the critics act like MJ never gets hit. 8:53 he gets blown up right after the TD throw.
got hit once
@@nickevans5589 He got hit plenty. Yes Alabama had a very good OL but none keep a QB clean all the time. He made plays under pressure and he made plays when he had lots of time.
subscribing its the unbiased breakdowns for me
Watching this again after a year, and I have a question for you. On the play after the 14:50 mark, is the outside receiver (Is that Smith?) running his route wrong? From a design standpoint I would think he is supposed to drive a few more steps to get in the way of the LB , and on top of the nickel so that he keeps the attention of the safety.
16:15 15 to the far 40 is 45 yards. Perhaps more relevantly, it dropped right into the receiver's hands, in stride.
The overthrow of Metchie on the Viper concept read was inches and I believe that route was one that they were trying to complete to Waddle who is a little bit faster and more athletic. I like the way you break down Mac's body english. This guy started all of 2021 and what 3 games last year? He played a lot with really great players but he doesn't have that much starting time compared to someone like Trevor.
ik you are doing the whole college QB analysts, but i would really love to see a Lamar Jackson breakdown. i have never seen anyone smart talk about him and his throwing and i wanna see what you have to say.
Yes, should be the first QB taken off the board...
I agree, and I wish the Falcons would get him and Smitty or Jalen
As a falcons fan he is the only web I wouldn’t mind drafting also we don’t need another receiver plus smitty prob going three to Miami
Mac don't get no love becus he not a true "dual threat" like the trend ppl want to follow now.. Fuk that.. This dude got it... Brady can't move to save his life... He just drop to the ground when he see he can't get rid of the ball.. That guy just won the Super bowl..
Yep, there will always be a pl;ace in the NFL for a good pocket QB who can move enough to be successful. Jones looks like a track star compared to Brady.
Nah I’ve seen Brady move what are you talking about lol. And the one time Mac ran he got up limping because he probably never runs. It’s not even about being a dual threat but what are you gonna do when the pocket breaks and you have a split second to react? Throw the ball away. What are you gonna do if all of your receivers are smothered? Throw the ball away. Why? Because you’re completely in mobile and can’t extend plays or grab yardage at the next level. He’s a great qb but he’s a poor athlete, average arm, slightly above average accuracy, and has decent footwork. Unless you’re Indiana you can’t draft this guy whose a liability due to a crappy pass protection. That’s like buying a luxury car but you don’t make enough money to afford the insurance.
@@terrancebond6111 poor analysis again…
Good video.
I think the thing with Mac Jones is he did play well, but how often will he have by far the Best Oline around him, with by far the best play calling, with the #1 WR core around him.
He is very accurate and I do think he is worthy of a 1st rd pick even top 20 pick but can he win and be successful in less than perfect situations.
I have the same criticism about Zach Wilson. Both of they accuracy goes quick under pressure.
Lawrence I worry about this too. He relies on his legs too much in big games and his throws tend to be very inaccurate when he senses any pressure bailing too soon etc.
Keep it up. Will you do part 2 to these guys as the draft season goes on?
Awesome video nothing but facts great job keep up the video
I agree completely I’m praying Broncos grab him cuz the wrest of the qbs are picked and watch him end up
Being one of the best
I wish you posted more often... you got talent and should be a scout for a NFL team
I want to see your opinion on trevor. To me it is a heavy mix of wow, what and why.
This guy has so much damn charisma
Thanks Mark!
After Trevor Lawrence, how about a deep dive on Sam Darnold? Can he still be a franchise QB - or is he broken?
Since there's speculation he could be available and has been linked to the Broncos.
As a jet fan would love to hear if Sam is salvageable would love to keep him if we can would love to hear others takes
80/20 ball... love it!!!
great content, new subscribe here and just happy you have your own opinions with tape to back it up instead of just regurgitating what "pundits" are saying.
8:35 Circus act by the defense. Mac looks good, great vid.
The Carolina Panthers with the number 8 pick choose Mac Jones.
First off Carolina needs to cut K.Short and pick up JJ Watt
Draft Mac Jones
Take their two number twos and move up to get (LT)Alex Leatherwood
In the third round (C) Landon Dickerson
In the third round (LB) Dylan Moses
In the later rounds take (TE) Miller Forestall
These moves will allow The Panthers to secure more in free agency while being frugal with the salary cap. Say what you will the best comp is Jake Delhomme or possibly Kirk Cousins. He is the face of the Panthers. I will take a smart information processing QB over a WOW athletic QB all day everyday. Mac Jones is exactly as advertised....
Mond, Mills or Newman (or maybe Trask - though his deep ball footwork seems the issue)... we've seen tape of the 1st round prospects - I'd like to see the guys that don't look so good as a comparison, even if the "bad" section is a lot bigger.
When you say 15% of teams shouldn't touch him, which teams would that be?
Cam would have overthrown half of these throws...flatout.
Honestly can't trust Bama QBs but there's something I like bout him .. To the point where I wouldn't mind my cowboys taking him, just not at 10.
Do you think Sam Ehlinger should be a top 5 QB in this class in my opinion he’s a top 3 QB in this class he’s Tebow with better throwing mechanics and a all around better arm while he should be able to translate well to a NFL offense his mentality is like Jordan and Kobe he will carry his team any time he has to and he is accurate down the field can make phenomenal throws in tight windows his ceiling is to me Andrew Luck or Brett Favre his floor is a Tim Tebow or Vince Young
Justin Fields is dropping on GM's big boards because not only that he almost ALWAYS threw to his first read but also never looks off the S or LB. Only 7 pass attempts to 2nd or 3rd reads. Sirius XM NFL radio is where I heard this. Look for Fields to fall outside of the top 10. I would prefer Jones to Fields. Jones has a higher floor and has the smarts and accuracy a QB needs to be successful in the NFL.
Tim, Where do you rank Drew Lock with this year's QB crop and where do you see his ceiling compared to them?
Drew had a down year but his ceiling is absolutely incredible, he's kind of mobile with a fast release accurate a good bit and has a cannon his first full year decision making got to him
awesome breakdowns man. would like to see Kellen Mond or Trevor Lawrence next
Huge Bama
Fan here and I try and see things as they are. Not thru crimson glasses. Just heard a guy in the radio say a GM told him Jones interview was the best he had ever done. But that the tape don’t lie. Jones can’t drive the ball deep. Like Matt Linehert. I love Jones. But you watch the throws and he reminds me of AJ McCarron. Throws a beautiful deep ball. But no real drive on it.
I’m a big Bama fan too and have been for about 50 years. Like you I try to not see thru crimson glasses. What sad is without a doubt Mac is the best quarterback we had in the years I have been watching Bama .
On a number of plays I saw Jones motion with his hand/arm to the RB or WR to move them. Is this because they weren't lined up correctly, or is he audibling?
Question: is there a mechanical reason that qbs tend to overshoot deep balls? Like qbs that are typically accurate at other points of the field but their deep balls tend to be just a little out in front of the receiver.
how about Dustin Crum: 2nd in pass%, 4th Pass Eff, 5th Adjusted Passing Yards per attempt (from numbers I have)
Why the question? He's already proven himself. 4500 yards in one season speaks for itself.
Does Shanalynch pick Jones #3 now? What's the earliest game you start him? An analyst today said Jimmy took "6 weeks" to learn Kyle's playbook.
If it Jones then he can start week 1
20:19 he wasn’t aware of it on the play earlier against UGA. He made a good throw yes but he still didn’t see the defender & VS TENN.
He would do well at the pats
We got him.
Trevor Lawrence because I’m not convinced he is better than Josh Allen (Buffaloes) coming out of college. To me he didn’t improve much his sophomore and junior years.
If you pounded on the table last year for Tua to be a high first round pick then you better be doing the same for Mac Jones because every available metric says Mac Jones was and is a better QB than Tua. Tua is slightly more athletic but I don't really think it's by that much because Mac Jones is bigger, stronger and has the better arm. Hell, if Mac Jones gets his feet under him more and improves his mechanics he could add a little more power to his throws. Questions about Jones' talent is borderline laughable if you seriously watch football.
I totally agree that he’s ready and I am hoping he goes to my Carolina Panthers and shuts those other young Panthers fans who want Lance and Wilson over him. I love how he manipulates the safeties and throws a great ball for his receivers to have a great chance of catching it. Didn’t really have that with Cam, who most fans complained about and now complaining about Teddy. Mac Jones reminds me of Kerry Collins or even Phillip Rivers. Who is your comp for Mac Jones?
I think you let Mac Jones off the leash on some of this stuff. I didn't hear much about his footwork or mechanics in this video, and i see him having a slow release, slow feet, and poor pocket mobility.
He's basically the antithesis of the modern NFL and it would take really excellent alternative qualities (arm strength, mental processing, makeup) to make up for the other stuff.
Just my two cents here. Thanks for the educational videos and content on three current draft! I've learned a lot watching you even if i don't always agree with you
You are completely wrong on all three points. Impressive.
Dax, Goff, Wentz, Cousins and Watson? Where do you rate them ?
Where do you get this multiple angle film? it is like All 22 film but i didnt think college had this
Yes, college has All 22. Coaches can get it.
THANK YOU!!! This is what us Bama fans have been preaching all year and he’s gonna shine even in the nfl
And a few nfl scouts said he processes the game faster than you think and he recognizes things a lot sooner than you think as well. That’s something bill belichek said as well.
I think bill was a little heartbroken he couldn’t trade up enough to get him.
@@Bamapride1000 and in the end, he didn’t have to haha
This is phenomenal stuff....T Law please....i think he is behind Wilson imo would love to hear what u think
Mac stood in and took a couple shots knowing he was about to take a shot and he delivered some absolute strikes.
I seen a dime with pressure in his face.i seen Brady play in the game between the tide and Michigan. this kid plays the game in the same way. he ant tom but i think the way he plays the game he will go a long way
If he goes to Saints I think he will be a superstar!
Where did you get this camera angle from?
Trevor Lawrence next is my vote.
I think Mac improved his decision making as the season went on. When Waddle got injured, he had to take what the defense gave him more often. Two games that showcase that are Arkansas, and the second half of Ohio State. It's where he and Tua differed, because Tua would go for the home run early and often. He should turn out pretty good
If Tua went for the home run too often, why was his career TD to INT rate at Bama about 10:1? Arkansas played ridiculously deep because Mac had been hitting deep balls in every game, so he spent the whole game throwing underneath. In the second half against Ohio State, Mac was playing without DeVonta and playing with a big lead. Tua would have done the same thing in both situations. He took whatever the defense was giving, whether it was slants and other short throws or deep balls.
@@Don-md6wn I'm not sure what his TD:Int ratio has to do with him not going for home runs? The 2018 Mississippi State, Clemson and Georgia games are examples of him being stumped because the home run plays were taken away. Tua's career at Alabama, especially under Locksley, was the RPO quick slant and vertical throws outside the hashes. Mississippi State, Georgia and Clemson were able to stop both and then put pressure on him, leading to bad performances. Mac, for one, he had Sark at his best and a much better offensive line, but he made more types of throws. He wasn't afraid to check the ball down (shown in this video to not always be a good thing) and he was able to score against every team with a less talented receiving group than Tua had. I pointed out the second half of the Ohio State game because he still led several TD drives without Smith in the game, a testament that he isn't a QB reliant on talent around him. He was producing long TD drives with backups and third strings, none of whom are first round talents. Arkansas likewise took Smith out of the game and didn't give up big pass plays, but Mac still was able to drive the offense down the field.
@@andrewbowen2837 You'll find no bigger Tua fan than myself but I agree with your analysis. He did struggle a few times against the teams you mentioned. Mac on the other hand played WAY better than I could have anticipated and frankly I thought he outplayed Tua this year. If you recall the stupid media talked about how Jones Heisman chances were dropping after the Ark game because he only threw for ~300 and no TD's. He did not force it into deep safeties trying to keep everything in front of them. Ark did that all year and Jones played it perfectly.
Good stuff
I’m sold.....though it seems like most Niners fans want anyone else.
These are my thoughts;
straight up I do not buy the arm strength issues with him. Just too many times I've seen him let it rip and throws a bomb. Does he have Matt Stafford 15/10 Arm strength? No. But does he have 9/10 arm strength? Yes, indubitably.
I don't buy the bull shit where you have to be a Deshaun Watson kind of track athlete to play QB. I've seen way too many QB's that aren't great athletes become great QB's. Brady, Brees, both of the Manning's, Stafford, Rivers, Ryan, and even people like Jared Goff, Alex Smith, Derek Carr, and Justin Herbert (depending on how athletic you think he is).
Are these things you raise like ball placement and back corner awareness legitimate questions you should press to get answered? Yes. But regardless of if they're an issue or not they're fixable. These are rather small things to fix and those kind of problems fade with age. The saying I once heard was "QB's with 2 as the 1st number of their age tend to make stupid mistakes that the QB's with a 3 as the 1st number of his age won't."
I don't think Mac Jones will ever be a Deshaun Watson type where he is the best of the best of the best. But do I think he can be and top notch QB? Yes, absolutely.
my biggest problem with this breakdown, none of these were from recent games in the season, he was phenomenal after Sarkinson called NFL offense with him under center
