Mike Vrabel picked up a major penalty in the New England Patriots’ narrow win against the Buffalo Bills, and he addressed the situation with the official after the game.
The New England Patriots bounced back from a disappointing few games with a 29-26 win against the Buffalo Bills. Drake Maye had come under fire for his performances to start the season, but he roared back with a three-touchdown display in the team’s latest victory.

Head coach Mike Vrabel has shown supreme belief in his quarterback throughout his tough spell. He is known for getting overly passionate at times, and it cost his team during the Bills win. If New England hadn’t managed to claim victory eventually, this could have become a huge talking point.
With less than two minutes left in the second quarter, Vrabel was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct after cursing at an official over a defensive holding call on Marcus Jones. This moved Buffalo to the 6-yard line with a first down. Josh Allen scored a 2-yard rushing TD about a minute later, tying the game.
The head coach addressed the situation after the game, seeming fairly bemused by the penalty he had received.
