When speaking to the media ahead of the Buccaneers game, Mac Jones mentioned his "improvement journal" where he jots down areas where he needs to get better.
During his weekly appearance on Merloni & Fauria Monday, the rookie quarterback was asked about it.
“It’s not a separate journal or anything, but my notebook for each week, I have 1-2 pages of the good, bad and ugly," Jones said. "I did that since I was at Alabama. And I just write down half a page of things I did well and then maybe two or three pages of things I did bad or ugly. It’s not like a magical thing or anything.”
Jones said the majority of it just comes back to fundamentals.
“I try and watch the tape, and like I said, whether it’s my feet or a read here, there, or should I have taken timeout here, or changed this or that. There’s a million things you can go through in your head, but it’s more like fundamentals for me," he said. "It kind of just goes back to fundamentals because if you don’t have good fundamentals -- and I have been playing since I was a little kid, so I need to go out there and read and react. It’s not like I am going to change everything I do every week, but it’s just fundamentals. Whether that is drops, technique, ball placement, whatever it may be — just things like that.”
While the Patriots are 1-3 on the year, Jones has been solid under center and given his team a chance to win every week.
