Still, Jones helped to mitigate his error by saving a potential score. Luckily, he was just fine after the play. After all, his starting quarterback making a tackle in which he lowered his shoulder risks potential injury. Of course, McDaniels may also levy a word of caution on Jones, and understandably so. The credit goes to him for understanding the situation and then doing the right thing.вЂќ вЂњObviously, you donвЂ™t want your quarterback to have to do much of that during the course of the year, but if itвЂ™s needed and required, thatвЂ™s why we wear shoulder pads, thatвЂ™s why we have a helmet on, and thatвЂ™s why we lift weights.

While McDaniels and Jones will obviously review the mechanics of the interception in hopes of avoiding such errant throws in the future, New EnglandвЂ™s offensive coordinator will likely have some words of praise for his quarterbackвЂ™s awareness and fortitude in that situation. And maybe the momentum, for sure, in the game.вЂќ I think that we saw that play had the potential to be a play that would affect the score, certainly. And then thereвЂ™s other times, where if you donвЂ™t make the tackle, this could change the game. And you just try to protect yourself and protect the team and do it. Sometimes you throw an interception and you can recognize quickly that the play is not going to go very far. вЂњBut I think that kind of speaks to one, his awareness of what is happening on the play, and then his competitiveness to do the right thing. вЂњYou would like to never have your quarterback make a tackle,вЂќ McDaniels told reporters on Monday.
