Tony Romo rips Mac Jones for ‘horrendous throw’ that leads to easy pick

Tony Romo has an eye for football and is widely regarded as one of the best broadcasters in the game. However, it did not take a broadcaster as well-versed as Romo to analyze one particular throw by Mac Jones.
During Sunday’s game with the New England Patriots, Jones rolled out and had an easy completion available with a wide-open receiver. However, Jones whiffed on the throw and was picked off while Romo reacted to the “horrendous” attempt by the QB.
“I mean, he is open — Hunter Henry — and this is just a horrendous throw by Mac Jones,” said Romo. “This one, he’s had a couple this year he wants back, but this is going to be right up there. wide-open Henry and he just misses him.”

Coming out of halftime against the Raiders, Jones has completed 10-of-16 passes for 116 yards with the interception. The Pat offense managed just a lone field goal in the first half.
Jones’ current play is certainly troubling for a player that has regressed every season in the league since a Pro Bowl nod as a rookie. This season, Jones is posting a career-low completion percentage (62.5%) with a career-high interception percentage (3.6%). Sunday’s interception gives Jones his 7th of the season in 6 games played.
