"The New England Patriots have had a season to remember so far, and that wouldn't be possible without the players and coaching staff being on the same page. We've seen some really fun storylines this year: the emergence of Kayshon Boutte, the resurrection of Stefon Diggs, and, of course, Drake Maye's MVP case. Defensively, Christian Gonzalez's continued dominance and the elite run defense have been notable."
"Recently, Tom Curran and Phil Perry listed their superlatives for the Patriots through eight weeks, starting with their offensive MVP. Drake Maye was each of theirs, to little surprise. He's totaled 17 touchdowns to just three interceptions and leads the league in completion rate. He's also the team's second leading rusher, just 29 yards off Rhamondre Stevenson. In second came Diggs, followed by Will Campbell for Perry, while Curran listed Hunter Henry and Kayshon Boutte as his next two."
New England's strong start reflects alignment between players and coaches and contributions across offense and defense. Drake Maye has 17 touchdowns, three interceptions, leads the league in completion rate, and ranks second on the team in rushing. Stefon Diggs has revived his production after a ten-catch game versus the Bills and shows minimal lingering ACL effects. Kayshon Boutte has emerged as a playmaker. Defensively, Christian Gonzalez has dominated when available, while Marcus Jones, Milton Williams, Robert Spillane, and Christian Barmore have earned recognition. Media superlative lists differ on rankings but converge on Maye as offensive MVP and a major surprise.
