It only took one regular season game for newly-hired offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien to spark hope in the New England Patriots offense.
They were aggressive in successfully attacking the Philadelphia Eagles defense in Sunday’s season opener. Patriots quarterback Mac Jones looked as confident as ever under center, and he even outplayed Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts in a 25-20 loss at home.
He finished with 316 passing yards, three touchdowns and one interception in a game that came down to a failed drive in the red zone. But it wasn’t just Jones that came alive.
