Patriots fire Mayo

[LegionnaireOfTheMiserable]

They want Vrabel

Probably Vrabel as HC with McDaniels running the offense.

 

[rocketskates]

They’ve got something already lined up to drop him so quickly like that.

 

[IUGradVol]

Might be here if Banks goes to Clemson

Wouldn’t be opposed to it one bit.

 

[Volfan1000]

Don't understand the point of promoting a guy to his 1st year as HC then when it's a bad year (after finishing exactly the same with Belicheck) you can him. Looking forward to the Pats sucking.

Black Monday gets started early in the NFL and I would like to see Mayo join the Atlanta coaching staff.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

dumbest is yours thinking a person with no experience is qualified. Junior, this is big boy football not Madden.

Mayo has been coaching in the NFL for awhile. His last gig was HC. That's as big as it gets. He's well qualified for a DC position in the NFL. Hate to break it to you, but a NFL DC job is in another league of "big boy" football than DC at Tennessee. That's not an opinion

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Yeah. Likely Vrabel

 

[TheVolsFrog]

May have been pissed because the win today cost them the #1 draft pick

Who knows

Naw he was gone. They want Vabrel
He was gone even if they lost

He was always just a placeholder. I’d be shocked if Vrabel isn’t the next coach.

 

[Boston Vol]

I don't understand firing after 1 seasons. 2 seasons if there's no improvement, ok....but 1?

He was a placeholder, although he didn’t help himself with a lot of the comments he made to the media, almost on a weekly basis. This was just as much to do with off the field issues as it was on field results.

His comments might have been because he knew he was a transition coach

Patriots are idiots. They'll hire Vrabel and still stink.

A year is not nearly enough time for change.

 

[njvols]

Lol no. New England wouldn’t draft Shedeur when they have Maye. Even if they wanted to, Joe Milton knocked them out of that today.

Nothing against him, but I don't think Shedeur is a first round talent...maybe late first. Cam may be the only "take" at QB early in the draft, imo.

Maybe, but think it's odd Mayo got shown the exit this quick. Any decent coach with a QB and draft picks has a chance. Kraft probably already has someone lined up. But, on other hand if he doesn't, and is basically saying, "whoever the coach is, you can't win 3-4 games and stay as my coach", then some other teams like Giants will get more heat on them if they don't make changes too.

I wouldn’t pick him or any QB this year in the first, but he’s going there

They heard Vrabel was interviewing elsewhere and felt the need to pull the trigger quickly

They'll will give Vrabel more time, if he is actually the guy. We're all speculating right now based on info at hand

What’s his buyout?

 

[HeadVol77]

Damn, that was quick

TWSS!

NFL coaches usually don’t leave the NFL until they run out of teams willing to hire them.

 

[germantown902]

Rumors are he lost the locker room. Plus, there’s a chance to bring back a proven head coach in Vrabel who the fan base will rally around. I was pulling for Mayo, but he was put in a bad spot from the jump.

We may need a DC soon. JM would be Great hire if Banks moves on.

 

[RockyTopTexas]

Bad coach
Bad first year hire in the first place
Was just a gap hire that didn’t work
Move along

 

[JohnWardForever]

I wonder if Mayo hired the best assistants available. A head coach is only as good as his assistants. There must be more to the story, with Mayo only getting one year.

 

[loosecannon]

They’re picking 4th now. Will Shedeur be available?

They drafted Maye. They aren’t taking Sanderson any other QB. They really missed on the value of the first pick more than any player. That roster is awful and could have swapped the first pick down to a fourth or fifth and gotten another first or second for the movr

 

[dduncan4163]

They want Vrabel

Was just about to say this. He will be their next HC
