From position coach to head coach of the PATRIOTS?!

Bold strategy, Cotton.

Not even just a position coach, but inside linebacker coach. So one of those hyper position coaches.

A dude drafted in 2008 is now an NFL head coach.

We're all old.

Mayo having a coach in waiting clause is somewhat of a surprise.

Seems pretty surprising to me. I feel like this dude was playing at UT like yesterday.

This will back fire. What a dumpster fire. I kind of like it.

At least Demeco Ryan's was the goddamn dc...

This is like us hiring Zach strief instead of Dennis Allen

Rooney rule should mean you have to interview at least one white guy too

Listened to an interview with Demeco Ryans a few months back, and he was very intentional with the assistant/coaching positions he took on his climb to becoming a head coach.

He's been a white hot name for like 3 years and only hasn't really tried to get hired as HC because this has been the plan

Really like Mayo but this is risky as hell. Really, really hope they put a great set of coaches around him.

Glad we went this route. Excited for Mayo and an infusion of youth/innovation while being able to keep the defensive core together and in the same system more or less

Curious to see what OC he goes for

May not have been a bad move all things considered.
