I think he'll get a job elsewhere, but he appears to be a shadow of his former self. And Belicheck likes an accurate pocket passer, which is what Jones appears to be capable of

Perhaps if Cam got vaccinated he wouldn't have got cut.
Lots of these guys are choosing not to. Pretty selfish as if they fail the protocols and the team default a game all of the players lose their pay

NFL's high vax rate 'unique' model for nation
Although NFL medical officer Allen Sills acknowledged that "COVID zero" is not an attainable goal, he told ESPN's Kevin Seifert the league's high COVID-19 vaccination rates could model a way out for the country.
The NFL's high COVID-19 vaccination rate provides a "unique opportunity" to model a way out of the ongoing pandemic for the entire country, NFL chief medical officer Dr. Allen Sills said Wednesday in an interview with ESPN.
"We know we are going to have positive cases this season," Sills said a day before the league is scheduled to open its 2021 regular season. "I don't think 'COVID zero' is an attainable goal, and we all need to understand that. What we think we can do is keep our team environments as safe as possible, avoid widespread outbreaks and, with vaccinations in place, convert this into a seasonal illness as opposed to a devastating pandemic."

Broncos win on the opening weekend with Teddy fucking Bridgewater at QB
We're top of the Division! Playoffs baby!

Stafford already showing his class. Huge throw for a Rams TD.
This whole Stafford situation is fascinating.
A former number 1 overall pick with elite physical skills who isn't a bust but has just been stuck in a garbage franchise his entire career.
Now he's paired with an elite offensive head coach and a 'win now' roster. Whilst he has a lot of 'tread on the tyres' he's not old for a QB (only 33). It's put up or shut up time for Stafford in the next few seasons. It's not beyond the realms of possibility that Stafford ends up in the Hall of Fame if he really crushes these next few years.
On the other side of things Dalton is dead man walking - just a matter of time until Justin Fields takes over.

Couple of Week 1 surprises (as there always are)
Buffalo losing to the Steelers. Bills won nearly every single stat line as well.
The Titans getting smoked by the Cards
The Texans winning, even if it was only over the Jags.
The Chiefs had to do it the hard way to beat the Browns
Saints smoked Green Bay with Rodgers throwing 2 picks and Winston none. -
Interesting stat
"In the midst of today's thrilling victory, Patrick Mahomes broke the NFL records for passing yards (14,489) and passing touchdowns (117) through a player's first 50 career starts.
The crazy part? This was start No. 47. The dude is rewriting the record books in front of our eyes."

Other interesting stats from the weekend
That's the first regular season game Trevor Lawrence has lost. He never lost in the regular season through both high school and college
Jameis Winston had the lowest yards for a 5 touch down game since records started being kept

Eagles beatdown of the Falcons, and the Bengals win over the Vikings were a surprise for me.
Hot damn the NFC West deserves to have all 4 teams qualify for the playoffs.
One thing I'm enjoying about the lockdown 4 levels is that I can watch the games on NFL game pass.
