"I think Mac was one of those guys who was in bad situations relative to coaching and all that type of stuff, and who was the offensive coordinator and how did he get developed."
"Right now, I think he is in a really good circumstance with (Kyle) Shanahan, their offense, the players he has around him. He is a guy who will execute. He's really, really smart, so he's going to do exactly what you tell him to do. And he wants to know exactly what you want him to do. I'm not sure he always got told exactly what was expected of him before going to the 49ers."
Mac Jones lacked consistent offensive coaching during his three seasons with New England, cycling through three different offensive coordinators. Jones earned Pro Bowl honors as a rookie in 2021 under Josh McDaniels, throwing 22 touchdowns and 13 interceptions while leading the team to a 10-7 record. After McDaniels left, Matt Patricia and Joe Judge took over offensive duties in 2022, and Jones's production declined, finishing the season with 14 touchdowns. In San Francisco, Jones benefits from Kyle Shanahan's offense, strong surrounding players, clearer expectations, and a system that suits his intelligence and ability to execute instructions.
