The New England Patriots have parted ways with head coach Jerod Mayo, citing a dismal 4-13 record this season. Owner Robert Kraft was quick to act, stating that he didn’t like the way the team lost and that things weren’t developing as expected. However, Kraft has yet to take responsibility for the team’s on-field performance, leaving many questioning whether Chief Football Executive Eliot Wolf shares enough blame.
Despite Mayo’s firing, it remains to be seen how Wolf will be held accountable for the team’s disappointing season. As the other half of the duo tasked with replacing Bill Belichick a year ago, Kraft’s reluctance to assign blame raises questions about the Patriots’ leadership and whether they are truly committed to turning their fortunes around.
