3. Turnovers plague Daniel Jones again

Daniel Jones has shown a lot of potential in his young NFL career, but his one glaring shortcoming is how often he turns the ball over.

At the beginning of the second half, Jones made an errant throw that resulted in an interception. It seems every week Jones is trying to do too much and it ends up hurting the team.

These are the situations Jones just has to abandon the play in order not to do more harm than good. He had another costly interception in the fourth quarter. Jones really needs to look at film and understand that he doesn’t need to force throws that aren’t good decisions.

Hopefully, this will improve before the season is over, but it’s frustrating watching Jones make the same bad decisions every week.
