NE QB Mac Jones - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. Miami Dolphins

Hey, maybe there's a little something with Mac Jones after all with Bill O'Brien as the offensive coordinator. Jones threw for over 300 yards and 3 touchdowns as New England nearly rallied to beat the Eagles. Is this what we can expect from Jones? Or will he regress back to his old self. It's only one game, so it's understandable to wait and see if he can string together another game or two, especially since he'll be under the bright lights of Sunday Night Football this week against the Dolphins. He's still a QB2 but another good game and he'll start creeping up the rankings.

NE QB Mac Jones - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Philadelphia Eagles

There was no doubt Mac Jones was the man going forward to the Patriots when he was the only quarterback on the roster for a day after final cuts. This year is make or break for Jones. It can’t get much worse than it was last year with Matt Patricia running the show on offense. Now it’s Bill O’Brien. We get our first look Sunday against the Eagles, a very tough matchup to start with how stout the Eagles are on defense. Jones was average in fantasy last year so it’s fair to be cautious with him to start this season until we see how the offense actually operates.

NE QB Mac Jones - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Miami Dolphins

Mac Jones nearly led a comeback last week against the Bengals, throwing for 240 yards and two touchdowns, only his second multi-touchdown game of the season. This week, it's a must-win game against the Dolphins. In Week 1, Jones went 21/30 for 213 yards, one touchdown and an interception. That's pretty much been about the average for Jones this season, so while you wouldn't trust him as a top option, he's an okay QB2 option as Miami is allowing the second-most fantasy points to quarterbacks.

NE QB Mac Jones - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Mac Jones had a favorable matchup against a struggling Raiders pass defense and went on to complete just 42% of his passes for 112 yards. This week, it's on to Cincinnati, one of the hottest teams in the NFL. At this point, is Jones really someone you'd want to trust in the fantasy playoffs, regardless of opponent? And especially when that opponent is Cincinnati? And there are also rumors of Bailey Zappe returning to the starting lineup. You might want to shy away here.

NE QB Mac Jones - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Las Vegas Raiders

Mac Jones went 24/35 for 235 yards Monday against the Cardinals, but that was it. Of course, the Patriots didn't have to do too much in the air as their rushing attack, even with Rhamondre Stevenson, did most of the dirty work in the desert. As a result, Jones isn't asked to do too much. It also doesn't help that the offensive coordinator continues to be a roller coaster, to say the least. This week, the Patriots visit another desert of sorts, Las Vegas. While the Raiders can get after the quarterback, they boast the worst pass defense by DVOA metrics. Hopefully, Jones gets Jakobi Meyers back this week, especially after losing DeVante Parker on Monday (why the game wasn't immediately stopped is still baffling). Jones is a middling QB2 as a result in Vegas.

NE QB Mac Jones - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 at Arizona Cardinals

For the third time in five games, Mac Jones failed to reach 200 passing yards. New England remains a run-first team, limiting the passing game. And that passing game may be limited even more if Jakobi Meyers can't play on Monday after suffering a concussion last week. Jones is a middling QB2 against Arizona who does rank 25th in pass defense DVOA.

NE QB Mac Jones - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. Buffalo Bills

Mac Jones somehow got into a shootout with Kirk Cousins on Thanksgiving and nearly came away with the victory. He hit 382 yards, only his second 300-yard game this season and scored his first multi-touchdown game this season. This Thursday presents a tougher challenge against the Bills, though he won't have to worry about Von Miller. Still, even after his Thanksgiving feast, there probably isn't room for dessert this Thursday.
