Mike Vrabel will be coaching his first Super Bowl on Sunday, leading the Patriots against the Seahawks in Super Bowl LX. It’s not his first time around the block playing in February; Vrabel won three titles with New England as a player in the early days of the team’s dynasty run this century. So he understands better than anybody the pressure of playing in the big game.
On Sunday he met with the Patriots for a final meeting on the morning of the Super Bowl. Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer reported Vrabel played Super Bowl XXXVI halftime performer U2’s “Beautiful Day” and relived the Patriots’ 2002 Super Bowl upset of the Rams with the team. He then had three words for his players to keep in mind as they take the field: Belief, Identity, and Rage.
