Even before the week three injury to Mac Jones, the Patriots were off to an unimpressive start. Well, at least on the offensive side of the ball. This isn’t an article calling to replace Mac Jones as the franchise guy already, but to make the BEST replacement in wake of his injury.

James White announcing his retirement, struggles on the offensive line, but none of the offseason issues hit quite as hard as losing Josh McDaniels as the Offensive Coordinator and not finding a replacement for his role. Sure you can credit McDaniels success to having the greatest QB of all time on his side. But his gutsy play calls, like running a James White draw play on 3rd & 7 in the playoffs, were just as important as anything. New England faces a new challenge this season,…
