How Jerod Mayo's words and actions are putting his job in jeopardy | Jones & Keefe

[@geo6740]

After he threw out the DEI bs at his introductory presser, I knew we were in trouble!

[@FantasySportsZen]

Calling Mayo "safe" at this specific point in time is INSANE. Was a big fan of Mayo the player, and Mayo the Inside Linebackers Coach, but Mayo the Head Coach has been very disappointing.

[@ZenBoulder]

Mayo is so far over his head. He got the job, without ever being a Coordinator, because he was polite to old people on a Kraft Israel Trip. WTH!

[@paulratnage2663]

We need Mike Vrabel, patriot through & through.

[@obarbeito]

BB was here 25 years and at the end he was bad. Mayo has been bad since before the season started. Any HC that watches this team film will know the reason Mayo would be fired. This is a storied franchise, with a great prospect at QB and cap space. It would be a great place for a real HC to coach.

[@polandfresh101]

I hope Kraft isn’t too cowardly to fire Mayo if this continues.

[@lehighstar474]

Why is it so wrong to give people shit about saying Jerod Mayo should have earned his way to become the damn head coach of the franchise without no coaching experience,,,,,,I can understand defensive coordinator but damn to just hand him the keys to the franchise to run???? DEI HIRE???

[@onestepcloser5925]

DEI suggests Kraft took him specifically to check a racial box. It disregards the fact he played for the Pats. That he was defensive rookie of the year. That he led the NFL in tackles a couple of years later. That he was called “Baby Belichick” when he was playing. That he has basically never left. That Kraft said “I have a feeling about Mayo”. Nothing about race or inclusion was involved. You can just say he sucks without making it racial.

Political Correctness

[@shnc27]

I think it was pure incompetence rather than dei, but I’m sure Kraft liked the optics of mayo happening to be black

Dei hire would be better. He got hired because Kraft “liked how he acted” on a vacation to israel…and calls Kraft thunder cat. I wish he was a dei hire but it’s much worse than that.

[@obarbeito]

Mayo is a bad coach. Wolff is a bad GM. Let's bring Ben Johnson, new blood, offensive mastermind and part of the best rebuild of the NFL

[@spod7575]

Agree 💯

[@dalepurcell502]

Ben Johnson is an amazing OC but we need the culture that Dan Campbell or Mike Vrabel can deliver

[@kyleparfait61]

It's not just the record, it's the BLOWOUT losses, and losses to bad teams. It's one thing to be competitive in losses and look like your team is on its way, but these losses show a team that is totally lost. Now with all the talk from players, you have the simmering ingredients of a team in total meltdown. It might not be there yet, but this is a tipping point for sure.

[@letsgobs4933]

We can only hope . . . (yes to Mike Vrabel!)

[@colinalger2974]

The record is not the problem the issue is what exactly are you showing to the fans that gives them hope going into next year. Mayo can use the Dan Campbell and Shanahan examples all he wants but those men did something Mayo isn’t and that is creating a culture and new standard and you see them fighting hard and keeping games close which tells you as a fan hey this team has an identity I’m curious to see how they build this thing. As of right now you don’t see that with this team now to be fair there is 10 games left so the culture can change by seasons end but Kraft better be taking a hard look at how the team responds. Also let me be clear Maye’s success is really not something Mayo can use to benefit himself as he stated that Van Pelt is the HC of the offense and the QB coach and Ben McAdoo are the ones behind the scenes with the development

[@FantasySportsZen]

The last 8 months couldn't have gone worse (within reason). Team is legit a Joke Circus. And all Maye has done so far is lose by 18 pts/game to two of the worst teams in recent memory, each of whom had 1 win. We don't look like Army anymore but please pump the brakes. Celtics standard: Championship or bust Patriots standard: Complete a forward pass 😂 ....(now, also) Allow less than 30 points.

[@racebannon8569]

Wrong! In this case yes but there are times when you should talk

[@lugankid]

Worst part is all the supporting coaches are terrible - defensive coordinator is awful, offensive line coach should be brought behind the shed, special teams is terrible

[@gb-dt3vk]

Kraft does not want to pay Vrabel his asking wage because Kraft is paying his HC, OC, and DC starting wages.That's one reason he got rid of Bill.

[@shanaeverowe9626]

Hold up, no one expected them to be this bad? I slammed the over/under on the under at 4.5 wins on my bet. I am sitting back just waiting for that money to be sent my way. This team had fighting for top pick written all over it

[@peteralcantara5669]

Fire Mayo

[@ADR-oc2pz]

Wolf & Groh must go too! They STINK at drafting!

[@Phernaldo]

The elephant in the room..

[@ADR-oc2pz]

Fire Mayo, Hire Vrabel.

[@RobCucurull-rr7nj]

For once I don’t think the guys are overreacting to this. Mayo looks like a 16 year old in a tux that a few sizes too big. Kraft should not have auto drafted this guy.

[@mikehar6638]

vrabel is a good coach. i'm a bills fan but i thought you should have hired someone new completely out of the organization. i like your new qb as i live in nc and i have a daughter who graduated out of unc and i saw a lot of him on tv and he has the right stuff. unfortunately you lack offensive players to support him. its a process so 2 years of down. however i would fire mayo and get a new head coach offensive oriented.

[@michaelroelant7134]

At this rate we need an new boss kraft is clueless lol mayo should be def coordinator and bring vrabel

[@DMKFACTOR]

I was hoping Mayo would be different than all the other Belicheck assistants, but just like them all before him they’re all failures! Only Saban and Ferentz have done anything.

[@dalepurcell502]

Brian Flores is a really good coach. He didn't want Tua which he is kinda right.

[@michaelroelant7134]

Tissue soft idd😂

[@asb3pe]

After 24 years of listening to Belichick's bullcrap, I'll GLADLY accept Jerrod Mayo's stream of consciousness at postgame pressers. It's entirely refreshing to hear a coach TRUTHFULLY speak his mind, I couldn't care less how his team takes it when the coach calls them "SOFT". This team deserves every word, even if it was just one word. SOFT.

[@infamousSneakattack]

dumb take 👆

[@lugankid]

Rather have wins

[@vt3649]

Said the softy

[@asb3pe]

In my defense... I've never been a Patriots fan, I merely live here and have been stuck watching Bill's sour demeanor every Sunday. Jerod is a refreshing change from that. Doesn't mean he's the right coach, or even a good coach. No strong opinions on that, but so far I don't think he's shown it.
