Patriots’ Bill O’Brien Appeared to Completely Lose It on Mac Jones During Colts Game

The Patriots offense is having one of its worst campaigns in the last several decades and things appeared to boil over while overseas Sunday. 

During the team’s game against the Colts in Germany, New England offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Bill O’Brien went in on quarterback Mac Jones while the two were sitting on the sideline. 

After yet another disappointing drive and the Patriots down 7–3 in the third quarter, O’Brien can be seen screaming at Jones while repeatedly pointing at the tablet as the pair were watching film. Whatever they were watching, O’Brien clearly wanted to get his point across. 

Heading into the Week 10 matchup, the Patriots (2–7) have thrown for just 1,940 yards and 10 touchdowns to nine interceptions. Jones would go on to throw a interception with his team down 10–7 in the fourth quarter and was benched for Bailey Zappe on the team’s final drive of the game. Zappe went on to throw an interception of his own to seal the loss.
