This time last year, the New England Patriots<\/a> found themselves in the midst of a controversy.<\/p>\n

The team had fired Jerod Mayo, practically handpicked by Bill Belichick<\/a> to replace him, after just one season, albeit a 4-13 campaign.<\/p>\n

Former Patriots called out the team for not giving Mayo a fair shot, but after replacing Mayo with Mike Vrabel, all is forgiven.<\/p>\n

In Vrabel’s first season in New England, the Patriots are back in the Super Bowl<\/a>, which they played in 10 times under Belichick.<\/p>\n

“Winning cures everything. That\u2019s been a known fact since I\u2019ve been in the NFL, and it\u2019s something I learned tremendously,” Rob Gronkowski, who called Mayo\u2019s firing an “ugly situation,”<\/a> said in an interview with Fox News Digital. “It cures players\u2019 troubles off the field, it really does. Not all of it, but a lot of things. It can cure a dismantled organization \u2014 all of a sudden, you start winning, and you\u2019re a well-put-together program. Winning literally does cure all, and that\u2019s why it\u2019s the entire goal.”<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no question that Gronkowski, who won three Super Bowls with the Patriots, is pumped that the mess in New England has been cleaned up. While teaming up with Bounty, which has kept him clean from saucy buffalo wings during recent Super Bowl weeks, he gave credit to Bounty for also cleaning up the slop in Foxborough.<\/p>\n

“In the offseason, Bounty came in and cleaned up the mess. They cleaned up the roster, they cleaned up the guys that shouldn\u2019t be on the team, they cleaned house, brought in a lot of free agents. Let\u2019s contribute the entire season to Bounty,” Gronkowski joked.<\/p>\n

“You can\u2019t have football without wings, and you can\u2019t have wings without Bounty, so it\u00a0relates to me all over the place,” he added. “I’m a wing guy. I’m from Buffalo, my buffalo wings will be forever with me, and I\u2019m a football guy. Eleven years in the NFL and now I’m an analyst for FOX, so football has been with me. And then Bounty paper towels just cleans up my mess while I’m watching the game, getting all saucy all over the place. I was a maniac off the field and I always cleaned up my mess. That\u2019s why I always stayed out of trouble.”<\/p>\n

Gronkowski also ripped the Tennessee Titans<\/a> for letting Vrabel go.<\/p>\n

“They\u2019ve been a debacle since Mike Vrabel left. That was one of the worst moves they\u2019ve ever made in program history. I don\u2019t see why they let him leave. The guy did a great job there, he didn\u2019t have a ton of guys to go out there and make plays, and they still won football games, just like they\u2019re winning football games in New England. That was one of the biggest mistakes in Tennessee history,” he said.<\/p>\n

Vrabel coached the Titans from 2018 through 2023, even losing to Gronkowski and the Pats in an AFC title game.<\/p>\n
