The New England Patriots didn\u2019t show any signs of improvement this season.<\/p>\n

If anything, they regressed.<\/p>\n

Of course, Drake Maye was exciting to watch, and he looks like the kind of quarterback prospect they could and should look to develop and build their team around.<\/p>\n

As for Jerod Mayo, there haven\u2019t been many positive reports.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why the Patriots should at least consider some of the other potential options.<\/p>\n

According to a report by Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, Ben Johnson could be interested in their head coaching position.<\/p>\n

Johnson was one of the most coveted assistant coaches in the league last season, but he chose to stay with the Detroit Lions.<\/p>\n

Now, he\u2019s fully expected to be atop multiple teams\u2019 wish lists again during this hiring process.<\/p>\n

He looks like a much more competent option to develop their young quarterback.<\/p>\n

Even so, reports state that Robert Kraft\u2019s relationship with Mayo is great, and he\u2019s looking forward to giving him another opportunity to prove himself in charge of the team.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, that could be a decision they could regret.<\/p>\n

Former Patriot Mike Vrabel is also reportedly interested in returning to Foxborough and taking the reins of the team.<\/p>\n

So, even if they still trust Mayo, passing on two prime head coaching candidates in hopes that he will turn things around is a risky decision, to say the least.<\/p>\n

For now, however, it doesn\u2019t sound like his job is in jeopardy by any means.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n
