Patriots Wideout Reveals One Mac Jones, Jimmy Garoppolo Difference

Kendrick Bourne is someone who can make a difference between Mac Jones and Jimmy Garoppolo as he has played with both quarterbacks. Of course, most analysts would compare Jones to Tom Brady. Head coach Bill Belichick selected Jones in the first round and he really hopes that the 15h overall pick is the best replacement for TB12.

How will Bourne describe the difference between the veteran and Jones? Belichick’s rookie throws more “catchable balls.”

“That’s a good question, man,” said Bourne during his apprarance on the 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Zolak & Bertrand. “I would say for the velocity part, Mac, he’s throwing it hard, but when you catch it, it’s like a pillow, man. I would definitely say that. Don’t know. He’s special, man. Jimmy — Jimmy’s got a rifle, and it comes in harder. So that’s the difference, I would say, about the two. Timing-wise, they both are pretty solid. It’s all about pocket, pressure, stuff like that. Velocity is just the most different between them, I would say.

“But Mac, man, I’m just really blessed to be in the situation with him and starting this new era of New England football that, you know, it’s the same, but it’s just new players. I’m just glad to be a part of it, man.”

Mac Jones to do better than Jimmy Garoppolo and take his team to the top

New England has four losses on the chart at the moment. Players are optimists and they all try to get back on track. It takes time to build that chemistry and Bourne is well aware of this. He has a nice connection with Jones. Let’s just say he is one of his most preferable targets. Jones is trying his best and his teammates like him.

“We’ve still got a chance,” Bourne said. “… We have the pieces we need. They’re right there. It’s like a science project we’ve got to get deep down into, and I believe we’re going to find it. It’s all about the players playing their part as best they can.”

Patriots players are doing an incredible job and they look much better than they did last season. There are some mistakes they should work on.
