Jerod Mayo failed to explain the thinking behind a key switch for the New England Patriots vs. the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 17.

Speaking after the contest on Saturday, Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo gave a brutally honest assessment of the blowout. "Really nothing good to take out of that game today," Mayo told reporters. "We just didn't play well enough in any phase of the game. No complementary football, that's what you get."

From a lack of talent on the roster to his inexperience and struggles with discipline, Mayo had little chance to succeed in New England.

Patriots fans certainly made it clear that they’re displeased with Mayo and the coaching staff during Saturday’s game.
