The dude sucked as a coach, only got the position for sucking up to Kraft and making a good speech at an event. No future with a man who can’t lead, control or even entertain the thought of a disciplined team. Trash coach, let go Vrebal
Or it just makes you speculate about how dysfunctional the operation behind the scenes is, and what else happened to come to this decision so quickly. I dont believe this was just about the performance on the field.
The next head coach will not be successful unless Kraft loosens his wallet. They have been in the bottom third in spending for the last five years and it shows.
They've been near the bottom in spending his whole tenure his owner.. when Brady was here and people would come in and play for the Patriots for a huge discount it worked in Kraft's favor.. if you don't realize we've returned to the old Patriots by now... you're going to, sadly. Just saw the press conference.. this is not good. Hey he fired the wrong one in my opinion Mayo had no talent and wolf was the one who gave him no talent.. Zolak and Bertrand call it a home run press conference!!!!!??? they're obviously drinking the Kool-Aid.. our media we have a 3 and 14 type media sports media too?? That's what Bill parcells always claimed and I think he was correct.. You want kraft isolated from the player personnel process, all this is going to be the old Patriots, who were the worst franchise before Bill parcells came in hired by Krafts predecessor...
Victor kiam hired parcells.. he picked the right quarterback he got bledsoe.. that turned this franchise around kraft bought the team after parcells was picked as coach.. he walked into a gold mine. I just don't give him the credit everyone else does . Bledsoe ... Then they get Brady in the sixth round if you want to call that skill you go right ahead I think it's hitting a triple cork behind the back from 50 ft away.. luck! You're not going to get lucky twice in a lifetime.
They've never wanted to pay for a pass rush and I can't believe that Bill parcells..Bill belichick.. Mayo... Or any defensive-minded coach don't want to pay for a pass rush.. this stinks this smells like rotten fish..
Why on earth would Ben Johnson want to coach the Pats? They suck and will not be able to compete with the Bills for quite sometime for the division let alone get an AFC wild card playoff birth.
@@Axecon1 BB had a poor record his first year in New England with Bledsoe as his QB. That’s a much better QB than JB. It takes time. I would give the coach 3 years. That’s plenty of time to see if the team is trending in the right direction. It also prevents you from becoming a horrible franchise like the Panthers who fire their coach every year.
Give me Ben Johnson any day of the week and twice on Sunday. This team needs new blood and a new vision. Forget about recyling ex-players, ex-coordinators and ex-office personnel. It's time to truly start over and let the new era begin, with Jonathan Taking over Robert and him leading the team in a new direction. Pass the baton
As a Lions fan I doubt that Ben would go to a franchise that is as impatient and incompetent in the front office as the Pats are. Ben Johnson will have options and will not accept a job with a second rate organization.
That's hilarious, 2nd rate franchise. Your poverty franchise has been losers for their whole existence. You probably choked your chicken alot the past cpl years. Before then you cried yourself to sleep. Cause of how God awful non wining SB losers.
Ben Johnson has to be the top option. What he could do with Maye and help rebuild the offense. An offensive minded head coach would be refreshing for the team that has had defensive minded headcoaches previously in Mayo and Belichick.
As a pats fan I prefer Vrabel due to his experience. But Ben Johnson who is a North Carolina Alum would want to work with Drake Maye and he did help develop Jared Goff.
REALLY!!!!!! Kliff Kingsbury went from college coach straight to head coach of arizona cardinals. Jarod Mayo was with new england( a pro team) for 17 years!!!
@danielthomas-x1j Dude, Mayo has never been a head coach or coordinator at ANY level. He was with the Pats as a player and a positional coach for only 4 years. How old are you? You don't seem to know what your talking about.
Mayo was a DEI “fire.” And as we have been saying for months, it’s the Patriot fan base, the ticket holders, the patrons, who would determine when Mayo leaves or would be fired - not Kraft. All those empty seats at Gillette spoke volumes to Robert. Common sense prevailed. DEI and the NFL don’t mix - it’s the best man plays the game - or you lose. Owners, coaches, and players alike. “The cream that rises to the top, is not entitled to get there.”
@ oversaw Tannehill and Henry, led a trash team to go positive the first year to go 9-7 then lead them to 3 straight post season seasons, won coach of the year in 21’, during his years coaching the defense over at Houston they ranked third in the NFL in yards allowed per game and turned the titans defense to the 8th out of the rest of the teams…he can ball dude and has the skill set and the talent we need in NE
what every one needs to understand here is kraft wanted a friendly environment then what bill brought to fox barrow but mayo was to friendly so im assuming the next coach will be somewhere in-between there now there other teams interviewing coaches as well jets already interviewed mike Vrabel to be honest i don't think he has what it take to change this team around he couldn't do that when all the talent he walked into left Titians and nobody should rush heiring a coach
You will probably be saying this in five years after three coaches and Elliot Wolf screw us into oblivion. BB was half of the winning combination. Brady was the other half. Probably 75% Brady, but those Defenses were all BB.
Seems Kraft has his man in mine and wanted to make room… Vrabel seems a good name to throw in. Although with maye’s potential you might wanna put the red carpet for Lions OC
A good HC would have told his players to tank yesterday to help the future of the team, winning a meaningless game yesterday cost NE whatever extra picks they could have garnered with the # 1 pick. Firing Mayo was the only real choice.
Dan Campbell was 1-15 in his 1st Season now look at Detroit. 1 Year is not enough Time if that was the Case they shouldn't of hired him to begin with 🙄🙄
Why don't you just hire five of them at a time you can coach this year then you can coach the next year then you can the next year..etc.. you'll save money on meetings.
I agree with the decision of terminating Mayo, but the guy should have never been hired in the first place. The problem New England will have is that this is going to manufacture some fear from coaching candidates about how much time they will be afforded to turn the team around. Seeing Mayo get terminated after one season is not a great sales pitch to market a job to coaching candidates....
I am usually biased towaed my 757 guys wish he would have done well but why was coaching experience not a thing with him look at aaron glen he was a scout position coach and a defensive coordinator ..mayo finessed his way into a job he had the minimum requirements for ..patriots relied on a personal relationship to make decisions and it was bad for business
I think Mayo knew his time was over. He won this game for spite. I'm really angry that they won this week and hamstrung the potential moves for the offseason. This guy was a terrible mistake. I never had any faith that he'd do anything constructive with the rebuild. He was too buddy buddy with the players and never held himself accountable for the discipline issues on and off the field. I applaud the Kraft's doing the smart thing and moving on from Mayo and AVP. I don't know why Covington isn't gone yet.
It was Mayo's decisions or I should say, lack there of, that got him. Kraft did the right thing, get it done quick. Very respectful. Do you think he's going to give the Jet's the chance to snag Vrabel? Smart move on his part. That said- If you want to turn this around on a dime- Hire Vrabel AND Ben Johnson as O.C. Pay Johnson as you paid McDaniels, give him a Head Coach salary. Watch how fast they turn this disaster around..
Mayo was a fan favorite as a player, but simply wasn’t ready for this. Totally the right call. The fan base overwhelmingly supports this decision and the Krafts heard the fans and Boston media.
Why hasn't Chief's defensive coach Steve Spagnuolo been thought of as a HC? He's been there for years. I'd think he'd want to branch out from Andy Reid at some point.
Everyone that keeps saying hire Mike Vrabel please understand that he's a mediocre coach that did less in Tennessee with a better team than New England!
BEN JOHNSON IS THE BEST OPTION!! WE NEED OFFENSIVE MINDED COACH! NICE PARTNER TO DRAKE MAYE! IM OK TO VRABEL TOO BUT MUCH BETTER BEN JOHNSON. BUT IF KYLE SHANAHAN AVAILABLE WE CAN GET HIM TOO BEST OPTION TOO!
What a second class operation the Pats are. Mayo had the worst roster in the NFL and a rookie QB. What did anyone expect from this team in 2024? Did they fire Mayo just because Vrabel was available? Vrabel had a good team in Tennessee for three years, then helped turn it into a lousy team. Is that what you want for an HC?
@gatvestreet9248 I sincerely hope he doesn’t go that route. The guy was in over his head. I respect him as a player but as a head coach, he wasn’t ready. I applaud Kraft for admitting his mistake but he wasn’t fired for his skin color.
@@KingJalance I’m not saying he couldn’t have done better with more talent. I’m saying people need to stop bringing race into it. I was a supporter of him the day he got hired. But as many other patriots fans have pointed out, the team should’ve gotten better, not worse
What A Loser After Patriots Fired Head Coach Jerold Mayo After They Won The Game Against Buffalo Bills. And Before End Of The Season. Easiest Decision. By Mr Kraft.
Quite honestly I’m shocked Kraft fired Jerod Mayo so quickly. Firing Mayo so fast eliminates useless speculation
Agreed. I think kraft made it clear they wanted #1 and he won anyways. Only because it happened immediately. Just speculation ofc.
The dude sucked as a coach, only got the position for sucking up to Kraft and making a good speech at an event. No future with a man who can’t lead, control or even entertain the thought of a disciplined team. Trash coach, let go Vrebal
you right he got fired, but WON the game and pats DON"T get #1 pick!!!!! stuck it to them on the way out!!!!!!

With Vrabel as New England coach you will be the 3rd or 4th best team in your Division every year
Yep. I’m a titans fan and was pissed when we got rid of him. He’s a great coach
Nah we need to interview johnson before committing to vrabel
@@demond2134 A great coach?? Did you watch Titans games?? 🤣
The next head coach will not be successful unless Kraft loosens his wallet. They have been in the bottom third in spending for the last five years and it shows.
Pretty sure that was on Bill.
And letting all that cap space go to waste. I thought he would get another year for that alone. Same with Las Vegas and Pierce.

You can go back even further than that. Parcells, Carroll.. We've had a defensive minded HC atleast since I started watching the team back in '96.

Jared goff was already developed
ben johnson would probably prefer Caleb Williams

You are right
It’s not going to work… we need Ben Johnson or Joe Brady
Don’t nobody want McDaniels. He is a terrible hc. He ruined Denver and Derick Carr. No
HC- Mike Vrabel
OC- Brian Daboll
DC- Robert Saleh
You’re cooking something but I prefer the guy from the lions for the HC job
Bring back josh mcdaniels oc
Interesting
This could work
Honestly Salah could be HC candidate the Jets ownership ruined a team that really was a QB away
But i would pick ben Johnson, we need to start fresh and and stop bringing back ex patriots.

Going from the 1st to 4th pick. I never want to see Jarod again.
I agree that sucked .
Hopefully Kraft will do some homework before hiring coach.
No homework needed. Pair Ben Johnson up with Maye and bring some life back to the offense.
The Pats shouldn’t take another chance on someone who has never been a HC. Hire Vrabel.
If they decided to fire Mayo last week, then they should have fired him last week
Vrebal is the only guy, we don’t need another HC with no experience
