""It's giving Trent Dilfer, it's giving Jim McMahon, Brad Johnson, Rex Grossman. All of those names combined benefited off a great defense alone. They're not here because of Drake Maye," Newton said. "That's just facts. "Does that make Drake Maye a bad player? No. Did Drake Maye do enough to win a football game? Yes. But I would also say Drake Maye did enough to lose a game that he won, too.""
""New England's defense has been dominant so far this postseason, allowing just 26 total points through three wins against the Chargers, Texans, and Broncos. Maye and the Patriots' offense hasn't been as dynamic since the regular season ended - averaging just 18.0 points per game over that same three-game stretch. In three playoff games, Maye has completed 55.8 percent of his passes while throwing for four touchdowns and two interceptions.""
Drake Maye grew up in North Carolina as a fan of Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers. Critique contends Maye has not been the primary reason for New England's run to Super Bowl LX, comparing him to quarterbacks who advanced behind elite defenses. New England's defense allowed just 26 total points across three postseason wins, while the Patriots' offense averaged 18.0 points per game in that span. In three playoff games Maye completed 55.8 percent of his passes for four touchdowns and two interceptions, lost three of six fumbles, and added 141 rushing yards with one rushing touchdown. During the regular season New England ranked second in scoring and Maye completed 72.0 percent of passes for 4,394 yards, 31 touchdowns and eight interceptions.
