Firing Vrabel is pretty stupid. The ATS stats show that he was doing better than average.
He made progress with the young QB. Knew he was probably going to lose RB Henry.
I would think this move is tailor-made for Vrabel to take over the Patriots.
Vrabel wasn’t getting along with anyone in the front office, especially after they fired GM Jon Robinson who traded AJ Brown. This was actually the guy Vrabel liked! And apparently he didn’t get along with the new guy who wants to bring the team into the 21st century. Vrabes is not a bad coach but is stuck in the past and if he goes to New England it’s not gonna be what they need and they will continue to struggle
