What Will Patriots Coaching Staff Look Like NEXT SEASON? Phil Perry Weighs In

[@RJ-rp5ot]

Hiring a babysitter for Mayo is a stupid idea.

[@Vaihinger]

Absolutely. Cowardly nonsense. Mayo blows: drop him - clean sweep.

[@JR-nq7mc]

Why would anyone hire/keep a HC that needs a babysitter? Fire him.

[@FeedDaMachine]

Pats trying to make Mayo work is gonna lead to a yearly cellar postion with weekly Monday walk backs.

[@dennispelchat5267]

AVP is the best couch we have, if going to fire anyone fire mayo and the DC.

[@CoryD_85]

That's what I'm saying bruh. I'm not sure why the Maye run play thing was brought up, who cares if he doesn't do a design run play towards the end of the season risking injury, we already know he can run amuck on the field he doesn't need to practice that lol smh, I want him and his WRs to get on the same page if anything that the most important thing to be concerned about. there was no point in causing Mayo to say you said it not me on a pointless question

[@richardgazoorian5149]

Wolf has been involved in drafting players for years. With the exception of Maye they had a terrible draft. The two wide receivers they drafted in the 2nd and 4th rds don't show any promise. It's like Bill never left. The DC is awful, the HC while a nice guy is very inexperienced and it shows, Van Pelt was getting better until the last game. The future despite Maye does not look very bright. Everyone needs to go.

[@dakibmw]

Oh, come on, it's not that bad. Of two WRs, one has the best hands in football, and the other one can make people in wheelchairs stand up. And their stats are like...I dunno....1 catch for 4 targets....combined...for season. Drafting is fine...

[@DMKFACTOR]

Actually Wolf hasn’t! He was a consultant then ran the scouting department. It’s been Matt Groh this whole time! Remember is was Groh not Wolf Klemm wanted to fight last year over the garbage players!

[@Yewtewbturd]

Culture isn’t an abstract concept.. it’s the product of winning games, playing hard, practicing and preparing, consistently doing the right things at every level, being competitive, etc. it’s built over time by doing those things day in and day out. Mayo hasn’t accomplished any of that. Bringing in an overlord to teach your coach how to be a coach is not how you build culture. JFC how did this organization become an absolute dumpster fire on the level of the Panthers in 1 season.

[@dchenkin02]

Patriots have a far superior quarterback than the Panthers, Raiders, Giants. Getting a quality General Manager would immediately elevate the Patriots back to a mediocre team.

[@Yewtewbturd]

@dchenkin02 From a player personnel perspective sure. Mayo doesn’t even take accountability for his own mistakes until forced to by the media, that’s the culture he’s creating and it’s on display every Sunday. Same mistakes game after game, that isn’t just a talent issue, it’s coaching. Even with better players this team wouldn’t be middle of the pack with Mayo as HC. And good luck to the GM bringing in talent with the dumpster fire Mayo has created. lol Mayo and company interviewed 12 OCs and 11 said no thanks, they settled with the only guy who would say yes. And the guy they hired doesn’t even have a record of calling plays!! 😂 Do you think with all of the teams expected to go in on Tee Higgins, that he won’t look at the Patriots offer and belly laugh the same way Aiyuk and Ridley did?

[@justinvigeant3639]

Elliot wolf is not a first year guy he's been in the front office for years building this team and it's been awful what an ignorant thing to try and say to defend wolf.

[@chad3692]

Bill had the decision when wolf was there in the past. This year was his first year making decisions.

[@DMKFACTOR]

He’s had NOTHING to do with the roster until last year! He was in charge of scouting! It was Matt Groh who Bill trusted with the draft and free agency! Remember it was Matt Groh that Andre Klemm wanted to fight over the oline talent last year, not Wolf! Wake up casuals!

[@Paul-717]

​@DMKFACTOR yup get rid of Matt "Thornton runs fast" Groh and Mayo....keep Wolf and Mayo scapegoat AVP who's main sin is trying to keep Maye from getting killed in meaningless games

@@Paul-717 People, I guess missed that whole Klemm Groh thing last year! Remember Bill was very close to Al Groh, Matt’s dad, and has been close to Matt his whole life! Matt was his golden boy! Tiny Tyquon and Mac Jones were going to be our Patrick Mahomes and Tyreke Hill! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@christopherriley9372]

I think that you are missing this, remember what Parcels said about his time in New England. If you want me to cook the meal, let me at least pick the ingredients. I think Robert and Johnathan are the ones who are making the decisions for the first time in 25 years. It shows on the field, the owners should never be involved in player and personnel decisions. Let the football people make their best decisions and if they screw up, you move on from them.

[@larryprimeau5885]

this idea sounds like something a 11 year old fan will come up with. Utter stupidity.

[@Kevinjimtheone]

Toucher rarely has any good arguments, and it’s even more rare for him to be able to express those, but saying that 90% of the fan base didn’t want Maye is absolute lunacy. There was a tiny fraction of ill informed people that were extremely vocal about their preference of not taking, not just Maye, but any QB with the 3rd overall pick because of how abhorrent the roster was, and still is. I wish he wasn’t the co-chair to Hardy how I like to listen to, and even worse, I wish he wasn’t part of so many panels with good regular guests - like Perry and Breer.

[@obarbeito]

Also, this conversation and "ideas" is disgusting. Only mediocre minded people or companies will do this stupidity. Stop discussing the ideas that ownership gives you to try and sell it to the fans. It's disrespectful and this one is just plain stupid.

The QB is priority. DO NOT CHANGE THE OFFENSE! Keep AVP working with Drake Maye & bring in a play caller! I’d also keep Scott Peters the O-Line coach. Who’s had to work with mostly practice squad & street guys to play on the Pats O-Line. TE’s have played descent. I’d keep TE’s Coach Bob Bicknell. RB’s & WR’s Coaches can be replaced. DC Covington should be replaced with a more experienced coach.

[@yournewbestfriend8149]

Toucher you are wrong on every important topic discussed in this clip.

[@edwardkropp8400]

to me it’s very simple, do you believe at this point that Vrabel will always be the better head coach than mayo? i think some fans of the team don’t realize how bad the patriots brand has gotten since brady left. you’re not just gonna be able to go out there and get ben johnson and a star gm candidate because this job is going to be near the bottom of anyone’s list! Vrabel is an exception due to history but the idea that you’re going to clear house and immediately find more competent replacements after this disaster of a year is a pipe dream! give mayo and wolf another year to build with a bunch of cap space and if you’re able to improve the reputation of the team a bit (look competent for a season) you’ll be in a much better place next year to find replacements

[@thaddeustucholski]

This rebuild all starts with firing Eliot Wolf.

[@DMKFACTOR]

Actually Matt Groh! Eliott Wolf has only had player personal duties this year! If you forgot, or more likely missed it, remember our Oline coach Andre Klemm from last year? Got fired? He got into a fight with Matt Groh over the players Matt had brought in, not Elliott Wolf! Bill trusted Groh, he’s known Groh since he was a kid. Wolf was a Kraft hire!

Baltimore, KC and so on. That’s the way … enough with the shit. The “patriot way” is long dead and done.

[@1sewalker]

I don't expect Mayo to be fired this year. He was an emotional hire. I understand R.K. has made more money than I will ever see, but I learned long ago that emotional hires are usually a mistake. Anything is possible, but it would take a lot for Mayo to be fired after one season.

[@mikechan231]

This whole conversation is dumb. The premise of a “CEO” HC is dumb. What the eff is the HC doing if he’s not coming up with the game plan and actively keeping all the departments on track, with the proper plan for the week. Even Bill was hands on in the areas he needed to be involved in. Mayo just doesn’t have the experience on ANY side of the ball. He was brought in too early. Stop throwing good money after bad and get people in there that can do the job.

a great coach is instant culture! He is a guru on offense or defense. Maybe most important is that he has built relationships along the way.

[@goldenbear8250]

WHY does the first question HAVE to be, "What helps Jerod Mayo the most?" This accepts the Kraft assumption that Mayo has what it takes to be a successful NFL head coach. WHAT has he done that should lead anyone to come to that assumption? I understand that is the scenario that the Krafts seem to be forcing on the franchise, but do the fans and the press need to accept it??? Seems like this discussion is a little bit of pandering to the Krafts...

Fck Josh McDaniels, forget Vrabel, stop trying to make work something that is obvious won't work.

[@sheldoncoffelt1891]

I'm pretty sick of this shit where we give credit for one and only one pick of the draft where they did what pretty much anybody that wouldn't have a QB would do. He could break a year or two from now under the pressure of the terrible team around him that still hasn't been addressed. Mac Jones took us to the playoffs and was a pro bowl alternate but you're all getting excited over a bottom feeder because the QB looks good. I think Drake maye is better but it doesn't change the fact that he'll be broken by 30 carrying this trash team on his back if he actually stays.
