Following the New England Patriots’ 23-16 win over the Buffalo Bills, Patriots owner Robert Kraft had stones thrown at him courtesy of Bill Simmons. However, he isn’t the first to do so. Former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski went scorched earth on Kraft for firing head coach Jerod Mayo.

When Robert Kraft hired Jerod Mayo a year ago, he felt he’d identified the right person to follow Bill Belichick.

Despite that, the poor performance was enough for the Patriots' front office and owner Robert Kraft to fire Mayo. During a press conference on Monday, Kraft blamed one specific person for Mayo's shortcomings and the disappointing product on the field.
