mike vrabel makes his feelings perfectly clear on drake maye josh alle

Once Drake Maye was given the official start in Week 6 of the 2024 season, it was clear throughout the rest of the year that he had all the tools to be the Patriots'... The poise he displayed as a rookie and his natural leadership skills were things that cannot be simply taught, proving the Jerod Mayo era made one good decision in an otherwise underwhelming draft. What was also apparent with the quarterback, however, was his desire to go above and beyond what was needed to overcompensate for poor offensive play, much of which did not rest solely on his... That led to too many turnovers, some inexcusable, which has remained an issue so far this season. That was evident in the Patriots' Week 3 game against the Steelers, as the offense recorded five turnovers in their losing effort in what should have been a very winnable game. Maye was responsible for one fumble and an interception, after completing a turnover-free game a week before.

His resiliency is something that fans and analysts have caught wind of, and his coaches have already recognized it as well. But that doesn't mean they want to see it all that often, which is something Mike Vrabel mentioned on Monday. During his weekly appearance on WEEI, the head coach was asked about how Maye can bounce back after a mistake fairly easily, and that is exactly what the Patriots offense needs in their next... After yet another disappointing season with a glimmer of hope in the form of quarterback Drake Maye, the New England Patriots fired head coach Jerod Mayo and hired Mike Vrabel. And Vrabel has certain standards for Maye. Although Maye dazzled at times a year ago, giving Patriots fans some optimism amid a woeful 4-13 season, Vrabel made it abundantly clear that throwing for a lot of yards and touchdowns isn't the...

“The expectation is that he's leading this football team,” Vrabel said on WEEI's ‘The Greg Hill Show'. “That's what the job of the head coach and the quarterback is. That's pretty much how this thing goes. And that he can't take days off. “I mean, sometimes the performance isn't going to be extraordinary, but the leadership and the demeanor has to be. And I think he's learning that.

I love the fact that he's willing to learn and push and try to do those things to where he's demanding of everybody and making sure that everybody's on the same page.” New England drafted Maye with the third overall pick last year behind Heisman Trophy winners Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels. Unlike Williams or Daniels, Maye did not initially start. Instead, he sat behind veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who started the first five games of the season as the Patriots got off to a 1-4 start. Tom E. Curran, Mike Giardi and Tom Giles join Arbella Early Edition with Trenni to discuss how Drake Maye can compete with Josh Allen on Sunday.

Mike Vrabel was asked about Josh Allen, but if you listen closely you might be able to hear him talking about Drake Maye. "I think he realized that he's got immense talent, and I think he's done a much better job of taking care of the football," Vrabel responded at Gillette Stadium on Wednesday when asked about... "That's been the big difference for me." Allen and the Bills were 3-2 in five matchups against Vrabel's Titans.

Mike Vrabel spent the 2024 season serving as a consultant with the Cleveland Browns before he became the top candidate of last winter's head-coach hiring cycle.

While numerous stories at the time linked Vrabel with the Las Vegas Raiders, it's now known that he always intended to become the New England Patriots' next head coach following the rookie season of... Under Vrabel and Maye, the Patriots improved to 9-2 on the season via a 27-14 win over the New York Jets on Thursday night. After that victory, Vrabel opened up about the events that led him back to New England during the offseason. "I came here because of the familiarity," Vrabel explained, per Chris Mason of MassLive. "I came here because of Drake. I knew what he would be, and it was important for me to come here.

And that’s someone I wanted to coach. And so building a program is about that. It’s about putting great people around your really good players. That’s what Drake is for us." Vrabel and quarterback Tom Brady earned three Super Bowl rings as teammates with the Patriots from 2001-08. While Vrabel was inducted into the Patriots' Hall of Fame in the fall of 2023, that was before Brady was officially approved as a minority owner of the Raiders.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye was far from perfect during the team’s Week 1 loss against the Las Vegas Raiders. Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel explained during an appearance Monday on WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show” why he actually doesn’t want the second-year signal-caller to be “perfect.” “I think that he wants to be, at times, perfect. I need to get past that. We all have to get past that. You need to be precise and not perfect.

And if you make a mistake, it’s the reaction that you have to the mistake that everybody sees and then they’re like, ‘Oh, wow, that was a mistake.’ We have to clean our reactions... Our responses have to be much better. And then getting into the flow. Because you see really good timing, precision and accuracy. And then we see some other misses,” Vrabel said, as shared on Bluesky by ESPN’s Mike Reiss. “I don’t ever concern myself with that.

I just want the better performance. More consistent. And continue to grow as a leader and make sure that there is a command to what we’re doing — that this is the situation, this is the play. Those are the things that I’m focused on.” Mike Vrabel, via “The Greg Hill Show”, on QB Drake Maye when answering a question on what Vrabel sees with how important it is to Maye to win: Maye finished Sunday’s 20-13 loss 30-for-46 with 287 passing yards and one touchdown, while adding four rushing attempts for 11 yards.

He also started the second half with a costly interception, however, took four sacks and committed a fumble (which the Patriots recovered) and recorded an 80.6 passer rating.
