Briefly

Ex-Patriots quarterback still can't bring himself to praise Drake Maye
"The Patriots offense ranks 8th in PPG with 26.6 points a game, 9th in passing yards with 240.5 per contest, and Maye is fourth in rushing yards among quarterbacks. His 17 total touchdowns are among the best in the league, and he has the best completion rate: north of 75%. Additionally, he is the team's second leading rusher, just 29 yards behind Rhamondre Stevenson despite taking 23 fewer carries."
"When another former Patriot, Damien Woody, called Maye the best deep thrower in the league, Newton violently disagreed, saying that his competition hasn't been stiff and that the Patriots still aren't better than the Bills. A hesitancy to call Maye the MVP or to say the Patriots are better than the Bills is understandable to a degree, but to be as petrified with a take like Woody's as Newton was seems unnecessary."
Drake Maye has propelled the Patriots to a 6-2 record and a top-10 offense, averaging 26.6 points per game and 240.5 passing yards. Maye ranks fourth among quarterbacks in rushing yards, has 17 total touchdowns, and posts a completion rate north of 75%. He is the team's second-leading rusher, just 29 yards behind Rhamondre Stevenson on 23 fewer carries, and leads the team in yards per carry. Maye maintains the second-highest scramble rate in the league while operating behind an offensive line that allows among the most sacks. Some former players, including Cam Newton, remain skeptical of his elite status.
