Listening to Vrabel on the Greg Hill Show this morning, and I can’t say I’m encouraged.
It’s Week 9, and we’re still talking about getting guys prepared and making sure they’re ready to play?
Those are preseason and Week 1 conversations. By November, being ready should be the expectation.
I understand the offense is banged up. Missing key players matters. But that doesn’t explain the defensive game plan or the execution on that side of the ball.
Players need to execute. Coaches need to put them in position to succeed. Both deserve scrutiny after yesterday.
What is going on at Gillette? Why is preparation still a conversation halfway through the season?
I know we joke about it, but Vrabel’s personal life and Russini situation is 100% a cause for this season.
For one, he’s lost thrill and excitement of an affair (dopamine). Two, he was publicly embarrassed and discovered.
You don’t flip a switch from that emotionally.

Not excusing the turnovers they’re a massive issue but it’s astounding the level of difficulty Maye has on a snap to snap basis. Constant pressure, no one separating. 70% or more of the Pats explosives have gotta be Maye just making something happen

It's so jarring to watch the Packers' wide receivers and then have to watch what the Patriots currently have at the position.

The #Patriots have allowed more points tonight than they did in any game of the Jerod Mayo season.
There's still 4:10 left in the 3rd quarter.

And I have guys in my mentions who don’t want a round 1 WR. Stay in your lane, kiddos.
"Sooner than later"
Week 12 is November 29. He last played on October 22.
😂
The #Patriots are optimistic that WR A.J. Brown (knee) will “be back sooner rather than later,” with Week 12 as a possibility, per @TomPelissero.
“Playing two games in five days may have triggered the latest episode, but New England is optimistic he’ll be back sooner rather than later, perhaps after the Week 11 bye.”

Barth could not be more right here.
Well done @RealAlexBarth

I’m a Patriots fan who believes that when someone shows you who they are, believe them. Mike Vrabel’s personal and professional weakness is his NEED to bring people he likes/loves close to him even when it’s obviously a bad idea. We have seen it personally and professionally now.
Ironically, his trade request and time with Texans has cost him even more money as a FA.
The best path for Boutte would’ve been right where he was.
Interesting life lesson in this and how things go sometimes.

“never got to wear these 😒”
Boutte was sidelined with a hamstring injury when New England debuted their Nor’easter uniforms in Week 11 last season.
