00:00Now you take a look and the breaking news with mike vrabel is clearly grabbing some people here early

00:06So let's dive in to what this means. We will get to chargers texans in a bit. Don't worry about it

00:12I mean again, if you missed it herbert was atrocious in the playoffs once again

00:16I mean, that's the the longest short of it all

00:18mike vrabel hired by the new england patriots

00:21One thing that when this team moved on from gerard mayo

00:25After one season it certainly suggested

00:29that

00:30they

00:31Felt good. They'd be able to make a big move

00:34And I think undoubtedly mike vrabel is a big move for the new england patriots

00:40But joe, is it the right move for the new england?

00:43Patriots, I I think I'm perplexed about I go both ways because I think mike vrabel is a very good coach and it's an upgrade

00:50From gerard mayo

00:51But I sort of put mike vrabel in the same situation that maybe we're in with mike tomlin with the pittsburgh steelers

00:58Did he plateau with tennessee?

00:59Did he get to a certain level and couldn't get over the top with derrick henry ryan tannio and a.j brown?

01:05I mean, yeah made it to an afc championship a few years ago

01:09Couldn't knock off kansas city and regress from that point on so if you're looking for new england to get back to being competitive

01:16Within the afc. I think that's a very doable feat with mike vrabel over

01:21Maybe gerard mayo because of the experience and a younger, you know, obviously rookie second year quarterback in drake may but

01:29Is he is he an elite coach? I don't know. I I yeah, I still have questions about mike vrabel as well

01:36And I don't know if he's going to get them to an afc championship over the next three or four years

01:41I think he's stepping into the best coaching spot. You can be in a ton of money an owner

01:46That's embarrassed and you figure you have your franchise quarterback already under wraps and a top five pick coming into it

01:51That's the start here, but understand this too from nfl franchise and owners

01:54They don't like to be out there in the streets like man. I used to have something really good

01:58Now i'm the embarrassment right now the nfl and everybody's telling me it's because I found a quarterback and a coach and they're gone

02:03Now I had nothing to do with the success of this franchise

02:06Like if you're in new england, right the ship's coming in, you know

02:09You don't want a shipwreck. You got that big lighthouse out there with the beacon of light that goes. Ah, you know what?

02:13That's safety. I know exactly where i'm going. That was this hire

02:16It was the safest hire they could have and also I don't know joe if it ends up in afc championship games or superbowls

02:22We know what we'll end up with this team is going to be sound next year. They're going to be tough

02:26They're going to win football games because they're going to spend money. Does he get a championship?

02:29We'll find out but for me the safest move that I don't think anybody in new england looks at this and goes

02:34Man, I wanted dion like you get vrabel in that news hit

02:36It's like all right looks like we're back to new england patriots football, but see that is my issue with this

02:42What what is the the patriot way to me?

02:46Was winning and it was winning at all costs whether that meant getting rid of guys kind of ruthlessly in their prime

02:55cheating potentially

02:57winning winning

02:59It does not mean that then you only know six people around the league and one of them has to be your head coach

03:05Was bill o'brien the second man for this job potentially?

03:10Again, you just tried to do the patriot way with gerard mayo

03:15And fired him

03:16Why?

03:17What gerard mayo was given the worst roster in football half of the season quarterbacks by jacoby brissette?

03:25won four games he did

03:27Exactly what we thought he would so why did you hire gerard mayo?

03:33A former linebacker of the new england patriots to hire mike vrabel a former linebacker of the new england patriots

03:40If it's because vrabel has prior head coaching experience, then how the heck did gerard mayo get the job?

03:47That doesn't make any damn sense
