I am so sick of the Bungals crying about everything. You sucked, again, get over it. Win more games if you want in the playoffs. NO ONE is scared of you. Especially not the Chiefs.

I don't understand why they didn't just hire Vrabel, I guess they still have a option to now, but he has all the leverage because other teams want him, Vrabel will want control and would Kraft let that happen. Other then the Bills they are lucky that the jets and Dolphins typically suck.
They had made a promise to Mayo that he was going to be the next coach. It may have even been in his contract. What they didn't expect is that Belichick would leave so soon. They had to ditch him a year before they wanted to, so Mayo was sent in there prematurely with a terrible, duct-taped staff and even worse roster. If he had handled the team better and took accountability over some of his team's actions, he'd be coaching here next year. He flat out wasn't ready nor was he a good fit.
Vrabel is likely the guy, and he's a clear upgrade over Mayo and even Belichick in his post-Brady years. But will he be "good"? Who knows. He understands how New England works, so that's a plus, and he was beloved as a player here. I can't imagine they would go with anyone else.

If I was Vrabel I would choose Jags over the patriots as I think the Bills are going to dominate until Allen retires or leaves. AFC South I believe is pretty week division and could easily dominate if he finds the right offensive coordinator.
Here are my picks for the Weekend,
Ravens over Steelers
Chargers over Texans
Bills over the Broncos
Bucs over the commanders
Eagles over the Packers
Vikings over the Rams

Jags are a bad idea because of the owner. At least the pats have some history with this owner being willing to really build.
Vrabel is scheduled to interview in person today in New England. I would be shocked if he didn't come away with a deal. He is beloved here, has after-playing history with the Krafts after being inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame, and he's at least a competent head coach. This is everything they want both functionally and to save face for the past few years of awfulness. I strongly believe he would have been hired last year if not for Mayo's contract clause that made him the heir to the coaching job.
As for the team being able to compete with the Bills... they have a lot of work to do. They only really have two really good players on the roster: Drake Maye and Christian Gonzalez. Everyone else is just bad. I think they could get back to their winning ways in a couple seasons with the right personnel moves and a decent coaching staff.
