""Just get ready to go on the road," Vrabel said of his message to the team after Sunday's victory. "Understand that that's how it goes in this league sometimes. It's tough. But embrace - don't let anybody take the joy of what we do. Joy is authentic. Joy comes from these guys caring about each other, being happy for the guy next to them that made a play."
""Joy is about what we do in here, and I think that they need to embrace that and be thankful for what they get to do and what I get to do. We talked about when you get - sometimes you get this taken away from you, whether you're a player and you get cut or you're a coach and you get fired and you get another opportunity, you want to try to make the most of it and enjoy it.""
New England eked out a 24-23 victory over Atlanta despite failing to capitalize on multiple opportunities and allowing big plays. Drake Maye committed two turnovers that led to 10 Atlanta points, and the defense struggled to generate pressure and contained a top receiver. The win ultimately hinged on an opponent's missed extra point, but Coach Mike Vrabel emphasized maintaining perspective and celebrating team unity. Vrabel urged players to embrace joy, appreciate playing opportunities, and support one another even when results are imperfect. Maye acknowledged the need to improve while keeping the broader picture in mind.
