The Patriots have been outscored 72–3 over the last two weeks and are off to a 1-4 start, tying the team’s worst record through five games in Bill Belichick’s tenure as head coach.
There are many reasons for New England’s poor start to the year, including bad offensive line play, a lack of a running game, the inability for receivers to separate at the line of scrimmage and the struggles of quarterback Mac Jones.
While there's plenty of blame to go around, as the team’s starting quarterback, Jones has stood out as a piece that needs improving.
