Logic Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 They must have really liked what they saw from Mayo to hire him so quickly. I can't imagine a tougher job in football than following Bill Belichick in New England. 6 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I'm not seeing any info about what they're doing for a GM. I assume Mayo won't get the BB full control thing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorquemada Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 pats fan buddy of mine (used to work in the org) says that it's a good move, feels like Mayo will be a better coach than Vrabel. Also said there was a clause in his contract about getting the HC gig when BB retired. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine a tougher job in football than following Bill Belichick in New England. Following Nick Saban at Alabama.

Doc Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 He's been in-line to get the job for years. It would be a bad look to go back on it. 3 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Do you realize you have to go back to 1990 thru 1992 for the last time the Pats had terrible head coaches. Before Bill they had Pete Carroll from 97-99. He went a respectable 27-21. Bill Parcells from 93-96. He turned them around from garbage. He went 34-34 overall. Now for the garbage coaching/teams Dick MacPherson from 91-92 went 8-24 Rod Rust in 90 went 1-15. So, from 90-92 they went a combined 9-39. That isn't much better than the 84-85 Bills. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyVanMiller Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I truly thought that Mayo was still an active player. Where does the time go? 2 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Meh. Hopefully they hire the wrong GM, draft the wrong QB (again), and have to repeat the cycle two or three years down the road. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
