Patriots offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien appears to have had enough of Mac Jones’ struggles this season.
During the Pats game in London, O’Brien was livid on the sideline as he tore into Jones with New England trailing 7-3 in the third.

“Mac looks like he’s doing the customer service guy calming-voice thing: ‘I understand, sir, and I’m very sorry you’ve experienced that..’ (The senile old man reading the papers in the foreground also amuses me),” Dave Dameshek tweeted.

“Love to see Mac Jones being called out like this,” Matt McCarthy commented. “There’s no need to treat the third year adult out of Alabama with kid gloves. I look forward to Mac’s response through sources close to him.”

Jones has been sacked five times despite completing nearly all of his passes so far. The Patriots trail by one as the final quarter gets underway.
