""I think every coach, regardless of sport, is looking for that, creating that type of identity and consistency and playing to that throughout an entire season. I think they are a great example of that this year.""
""Joe is fantastic. I appreciate him just from the time that I got here, reaching out," Vrabel said. "We're probably different personalities and I think that that's probably what I appreciate the most about him." "He's always trying to learn and gain knowledge different ways about building a team, about strategy, about scheme, about inspiring players to do their job. I always love my conversations with him, and I'm excited that he was able to come out here with his son today.""

Players bought into a clear, consistent identity and exploited opponents' miscues throughout the season. Joe Mazzulla praised the Patriots' development of identity and consistency as a model for sustained performance. Mazzulla attended Patriots training camp with his stepson and maintains a collegial relationship with Vrabel. Vrabel commended Mazzulla's outreach, complementary personality, and continual appetite for learning about team building, strategy, scheme, and inspiring players as the Patriots approach Super Bowl LX.
