PATRIOTS NEWS Jerod Mayo FIRED per Schefter

[reflexblue]

Hiring Gruden would be hiring a coach that hates Goodell just as much as our fanbase does. Match made in heaven

Gruden hasn't won anything in almost a quarter of a century. No thanks

 

[TommyD4207]

Is Covington gone as well?

If there's a new head coach, you can be sure that he's going to hire his own coaches. There's no way they're going to stick him with washed coordinators.

 

[mgcolby]

No, not possible. Wallace and Polk's deficiencies were evident before the draft.

Baker that ****ing mental midget gets a catch against the freshman team and gets up and spins the ball in celebration like he did something. That sums this entire season up and Mayo's culture.

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

I hope so but Kraft already burned me on this last year.

I’ve been a STH for 30 years
I hated the Mayo hiring from the beginning
One thing Kraft can do is read the tea leaves
The empty stadium with more opposing team fans and a lot of pissed off fans
He sat in a stadium with blackouts because of no interest
We’ll see if he opens up that mothball wallet

 

[The Gr8est]

So was Mayo the first HC fired this year?

 

[Ross12]

Is AVP out too ? So direction Cleveland?

Pretty sure Stefanski wants to bring him back after ownership scapegoated him last year. Poor bastard.

They are basically moving on from Watson so probably want to get AVP back and bring back that QB magic from 2023 that got them to a playoff berth.

 

[mgcolby]

HUH??? I must be reading this wrong?

Yeah could of worded that better. I was saying I am iffy on first year HC's in regards to the Ben Johnson's of the world.

 

[reflexblue]

Goodie's probably already got a script for docking the Pats next several 1st round picks if Gruden comes in.

Yeah, Chuckies persona non grata in the nfl. I don't think he'd be allowed back

 

[Ross12]

So was Mayo the first HC fired this year?

As far as post-season... there were a few in-season firings

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

Unclear. The only person to report it is Trollin' so...take it with however many grains of salt you want.

Glad to see you posting
Some of us were a bit worried about you

 

[jboston19]

So was Mayo the first HC fired this year?

Saleh was let go earlier this season. There’s probably a few more.

 

[archstanton543]

So was Mayo the first HC fired this year?

No. There were a couple fired during the season.

 

[Tunescribe]

Something happened
Could have been wink wink nod nod of losing today to assure the #1 pick
Or Mayo saying something smug to Kraft after the game
The letter was already drafted.
But I think Kraft out of respect would have waited till Monday or even Tuesday
The immediate firing smells like something went afoul

I suggested earlier that you can't really control how a game like that will go, especially with the Bills playing reserves. Then Milton lights it up unexpectedly. I think they might've decided to let him go after the Chargers game.

I give the Krafts a ton of credit not only for firing Mayo but for doing it so quickly.

Some of you are getting crazy with these criticisms. He made his first career catch in a competitive game. There’s nothing culturally wrong with him celebrating

 

[Thelonious]

So was Mayo the first HC fired this year?

? You mean after the season, I reckon? The Jets fired theirs after - what? - five games.

 

[Jackson 2]

Correct. That's going to remove the onus of having to can the others fromThunder.

The crazy negativity was getting to me.

But I had to come back on this day of days.

 

[Water Boy]

What I've heard is that Krafts are completely behind the times after giving full control to BB for 20 plus years. The front office is completely lacking. Bob naively assumed that Mayo could keep the train rolling.

Curious as to what role Wolf played in the hiring of assistants. Have to assume AVP was largely his doing, but I'm guessing they let Mayo pick the DC.

If Wolfe was on board with Covington and his lack of experience, that would be troubling.

This game was not competitive.

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

Is Covington gone as well?

None of the staff that we know
If Mayo is gone he is a dead man walking
Mayo and himself are at Chuck E Cheese right now brainstorming what to do
