Patriots’ Mike Vrabel Has 3-Word Statement on Bold Kicking Decision

Mike Truebel knows as well as anyone in the history of football how important reliable kicks are.

Formerly secondary of Triple Super Bowl champion in the teams of the New England Patriots who employed the Grand Adam Vinatieri, Vrabel is now dealing with the ups and downs of having a recruit in his first season as a chief trainer of the Patriots.

Andy Borregales, the choice of patriots in sixth round in Miami, missed a pair of additional points on Sunday against the Dolphins of Miami, giving him three failures in his first two professional games. However, when we had the opportunity to show the faith in your botter at the end of the tight match, Trebel did not hesitate and he was rewarded.

Truebel trotted Borregals for a 53 yards with 1:47 to play and the patriots leading the Dolphins 30-27. A missed kick could have given the dolphins a short field to equalize or win the match, but the recruit pierced him in the middle of the right hash.

This kick has greatly contributed to securing the first victory of Vrabel, aged 50, at the head of his longtime team.

“I must have a lot of self -confidence and I have a lot of confidence in him,” said Mike Truebel, by Chris Mason de Masslive. “I did not hesitate.”

“I am happy for Andy. That’s why he is here. I thought that after the first two, he really settled, and that’s what we have to have.”

Borregales’ difficulties with additional points were all the more surprising since he played his home games at Hard Rock Stadium, the Sunday match site.

Although the improvements in play are in no way a guarantee that the recruit is on the way to become a high -flying bootter, if that happens, Borregals can look back on the time that Trébel has trusted him as a turning point.
