Patriots/NFL 2024 Regular Season: Part II - The Patriots will have the No. 4 pick in the draft - Mayo Fired

[Mione134]

He knew he was going, so he made sure to win the game and screw the Pats draft pick.

Diabolical.


GOODBYE. He wasn't ready to be a HC.

Take AVP and Covington too.

 

[CDJ]

Turns out “He went to Israel” isn’t a good reason to hire a guy to coach your football team

 

[EverettMike]

Holy shit

 

[Shaun]

now they have to fire wolf

 

[JoeIsAStud]

Yeah they’re still gonna be on the board because they’re good not great.

Nobody is great in this draft. I think Hunter is probably the best player, but which position is he playing in the NFL, he won't play both. If you look at him as a WR, he'd probably have been the 3rd or 4th WR drafted if he were in last years draft

 

[EverettMike]

Firing him within an hour of the game is.....hoo boy. Jonathan is f***ing pissed.

Didn't even have the decency to wait until tomorrow.

I think he will play both, WR full time and CB part time

They shouldn’t be picking Will Campbell or Kelvin Banks at 4, there are much better prospects. Would rather Abdul Carter

This is so wild

Gotta be something even crazier

Vrabel kind of forced their hand with that NYJ interview.

What Browns doing with Watson deal

 

[Blitzkrug]

Plus side: This was more likely done to ensure they get Vrabel after he played hand

Even more plus side; this will force the Jets to panic and do something stupid like hire Rex Ryan.

 

[Kate08]

They actually f***ing canned him

 

[BradPark22]

Vrabel kind of forced their hand with that NYJ interview.

They need to avoid doing the same thing they just did with Mayo, interview as many candidates as possible even if Vrabel is the "guy".

They cannot swing and miss twice.

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

Now fire everyone else and then we’re talking

 

[McGarnagle]

Problem is they have to do a token interview before they can hire Vrabel thanks to NFL rules. Better get a quick turnaround on that.

 

[FrankerC]

I honestly don't see how this is any different with the hiring of Mayo. If they're firing Mayo just to hire Vrabel without any sort of interview from other candidates, I don't understand it. Hopefully they have at least 3-4 on the board to look at.

 

[CDJ]

Give me Kliff Kingsbury or Ben Johnson and let’s cook

Like Zolak said earlier, you do not move on from Mayo unless you know that you have someone like Vrabel in your back pocket.

I definitely want them to conduct an actual search but Vrabel has at least been the head coach of successful football teams before and the best qb he had to work with was Ryan Tannehill

 

[Johnnyduke]

Give me Kliff Kingsbury or Ben Johnson and let’s cook

Kingsbury? Hell no.

The Krafts like to be comfortable anyway. It's gonna be Vrabel. On that note, do they know he was available last year?

 

[CDJ]

Need Rex to Jets

Vrabel is a proven commodity at least. Got some really good results out of a relatively blah Titans roster and fell on the sword for his moron GM mangling it even further.

He does have ties to the org from his playing days so it's a sort of but actually not really a nepo hire. Definitely understand the hesitation from Pats fans.

 

[Johnnyduke]

Wow. That didn’t take long.

Kraft acts quickly when you don't wear his pin in the postgame press conference.

 

[BradPark22]

Now fire everyone else and then we’re talking

Forgone conclusion, only person I think could possibly be safe is Wolfe, only because Mayo was a Kraft choice, not his.

 

[FrankerC]

Wolf staying - only the coaching staff getting replaced

 

[Tommy Tubs]

What Browns doing with Watson deal

Nothing they can do with it except wait out the next two years.
