Patriots HC Mike Vrabel Points Finger at 2 Players After Loss to Packers
New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel was not happy with the way two players performed in Sunday's loss to the Packers.
In Sunday's 45-27 home loss to the Green Bay Packers, Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel pointed the finger at quarterback Drake Maye and cornerback Christian Gonzalez for the team's poor performance. Maye finished the game 21 of 38 for 299 yards, three touchdowns, and three interceptions. The defense also struggled, allowing wide receivers Matthew Golden and Christian Watson to each accumulate over 80 receiving yards.
Vrabel expressed his disappointment, stating that when the best players don't play well, the chances of winning diminish. He emphasized the need for improvement from both Maye and Gonzalez, as well as improved coaching and preparation. Despite the loss, Vrabel expressed belief in Maye's ability to bounce back and hinted at a tough challenge ahead. The Patriots now stand at 5-4 and face the Detroit Lions in Week 10 in Munich, Germany.
