Patriots QB Mac Jones miraculously didn’t get benched in Week 6 vs. the Raiders. The former first-round NFL draft pick completed 24 of 33 passes for 200 yards with 1 INT in the contest. For those keeping score at home, Jones' 5 total fantasy points over the last three weeks match his number of INTs thrown in that span. He's indeed been a nightmare of late. Whispers that HC Bill Belichick might make a change at QB have grown louder over the past couple of weeks, and Jones’ effort on Sunday didn’t do much to lessen his odds of being replaced as New England’s starter. We’ll see if he gets the nod again in Week 7 vs. Bills. If he does, he should be nowhere near fantasy lineups.
