We can’t waste any of Maye’s career on Mayo experiments. Every time the camera cuts to him he looks like he’s pretending not to be in completely over his head.
Not to defend Mayo, but....
Maye's not read to be a Super Bowl QB yet, so there's no hurry in getting a SB level head coach. If the team really thinks Mayo's got that for a ceiling, then Mayo getting a second year makes sense. What doesn't make sense is continuing to be cheap. Kraft can't take his money with him to the grave, so he doesn't need to be hoarding it as if he's a red dragon.
