New England Patriots offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt was asked about coach Jerod Mayo’s post-game comments after the Week 15 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

FOXBOROUGH — Patriots offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said Thursday his door is “always open” should Robert and Jonathan Kraft want to discuss any of his play-calling decisions this season.

Patriots offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said he hasn’t met with the Krafts since they were shown on TV seemingly criticizing his play-calling but “my door is always open.”

New England Patriots offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt took no offense to Jerod Mayo's critical comments on Sunday, and even shed some light on why Drake Maye isn't running more.

One of the lasting images from the game was the viral video of owner Robert Kraft and team president Jonathan Kraft watching Van Pelt’s offense implode. Jonathan looked especially frustrated at the team, and at one point, it looked like he mouthed, “The play-calling is terrible.”

After seeing the Krafts' unhappiness with the Patriots' playcalling in Week 15, you'd think they would have a conversation with Alex Van Pelt.

After the New England Patriots' 30-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday at State Farm Stadium, Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo gave a confusing answer regarding the team's decision to have rookie quarterback Drake Maye run the ball.

If the team continues to implode down the stretch, it could force drastic changes, including the possibility of a new offensive play-caller. Alex Van Pelt didn’t come out looking good after the Patriots’ ugly 30-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 15.
