Is he gonna help find them a better GM & especially HC? Otherwise...?
If you were the owner and needed to clean house but had no idea how to run a football team, why not give your MVP QB a chance to come in and right the ship? Nothing else has worked so far.
 
Imagine being a fan of the two teams that wasted their day interviewing Mike McDaniels…
Nothing wrong with interviewing; after all, the Patriots attempted to interview Aaron Glenn last offseason. Granted, it’s a little different since McDaniel has a track record one would look at while Glenn didn’t. But still, the real issue would be if, after interviewing, they decide he’s their guy.
 

Javontae Williams is the prize of the 2026 UFA RBs. He can Run, Catch, and Pass block. He turns 26 in April but still has lots of tread on his tires.

Breece Hall and Kenneth Walker would have to commit to improving thei pass-blocking.

All the others have warts that, imho, make them non-fits for the Pats.
 
Thank God he didn’t get traded to the Jets. For his sake & ours..



 
January 14 in Sports History:


1968 — The Green Bay Packers win their second straight Super Bowl. The game draws the first $3 million gate in football history. Bart Starr, the game’s MVP, completes 13 of 24 passes for 202-yards.

1973 — The Miami Dolphins, who went 14-0 in the regular season and won two playoff games, beat the Washington Redskins 14-7 in the Super Bowl to become the only undefeated team in NFL history.

1990 — Joe Montana sets an NFL record when he tosses his 30th and 31st postseason touchdown passes as the San Francisco 49ers beat the Los Angeles Rams 30-3 in the NFC championship game. Terry Bradshaw had thrown 30.

1990 — John Elway passes for 385 yards and three touchdowns as the Denver Broncos advance to their fourth Super Bowl with a 37-21 victory over the Cleveland Browns in the AFC Championship. This was the third time in four seasons that the Broncos defeated the Browns, and the first that did not have a name (The Drive, The Fumble).

2001 — Led by Kerry Collins’ five touchdown passes, the New York Giants reach their first Super Bowl in a decade with a 41-0 romp past the hapless Minnesota Vikings — the biggest rout in NFC championship history. The Giants led 14-0 after 2:07, before the Vikings offense had set foot on the field. The Giants finished with a 31-9 advantage in first downs, with 518 yards of total offense to 114 for Minnesota, a more than a two-to-one lead in time of possession (42:22-17:38), while running double the number of offensive plays (82 to 41).

2012 — Tom Brady throws for a record-tying six touchdown passes, five in the first half and three to Rob Gronkowski, to lead the New England Patriots to a 45-10 win over Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos in the divisional playoffs. The previous week Denver had shocked the Pittsburgh Steelers in a 29-23 upset when Tebow threw an 80-yard touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas to win on the first play from scrimmage in overtime.

2012 — Alex Smith completes a 14-yard touchdown pass to Vernon Davis with 9 seconds left just after Drew Brees put the high-powered Saints ahead, and the resurgent San Francisco 49ers capitalize on five New Orleans turnovers for a thrilling 36-32 playoff victory.

2017 — New England’s Dion Lewis becomes the first in NFL postseason history to have a rushing TD, receiving TD and kickoff return for a TD in a single game, which led to the Patriots’ 34-16 division playoff win over Houston.

2020 — Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora is fired amid Major League Baseball’s investigation into sign-stealing by the Houston Astros; Cora was the Astros’ bench coach before moving to Boston

Pats interviewed Thomas Brown for a position (HC?) that they decided to go in a different direction on, but were so impressed with Brown they found a role for him.
