“The guy doesn’t have a whole lot of arm talent. I’ve said it from the jump,” Ryan said. “Maybe the weakest arm of all starting quarterbacks in the league. I don’t hate. I’m telling you based on all the years I’ve (coached) against everybody, I would have loved to defend against this guy. To think this guy is gonna take you to where you want to go, you’re absolutely crazy.
“This guy can’t pitch it outside the numbers. I’m sorry, that’s an NFL throw, and what I saw was — he’s supposed to be accurate, and the ball is on the inside of an out route. Are you kidding? Where’s the power? It has nothing to do with my receivers if I can’t step into a throw and fire it. That ball needs to be thrown to the outside.”
Jones completed 12-of-21 passes for 150 yards with no touchdowns, two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown) and one lost fumble which was brought back for a touchdown.
