5 Things We Learned Following the Patriots Win Over Washington Thursday Night

Some thoughts coming off of Thursday night’s 22-13 win over Washington:

1) Mac Jones has obviously been the talk of training camp and Thursday night’s debut will likely only increase the chatter following what was a relatively solid, albeit not necessarily spectacular, performance.

Jones took over the offense late in the first quarter, receiving a standing ovation as fans definitely gave him a warm welcome. Jones rewarded that gesture by moving the offense with relative precision, although the first throw of the night was certainly interesting.

Facing a 2nd-and-5 from his own 31-yard line, Jones fired a pass to Jakobi Meyers that was a little low but Meyers still managed to scoop it off the turf and make the play, but the officials ruled it incomplete.
