"But there was nothing he could do but face the disappointment. And he did, with the emotion of missed opportunities written all over his youthful visage. Those plays that you can change the game matter, Maye said, and if you make them, you're celebrating. If you don't, you're sitting here, you're crying out at the podium. That's part of it. And I know the postseason is what you play for, and I know we'll be back. That's what you play the game for."
"Drake Maye's first Super Bowl was not the stuff of dreams. The Patriots' second-year quarterback, fighting through a sore shoulder at Super Bowl 60, endured punishing hits from Seattle's defense as he struggled to complete passes to open receivers. His performance simply wasn't good enough for the Patriots to win on Sunday at Levi's Stadium, as the Seahawks held New England scoreless until the fourth quarter and dominated the Pats' offense in a 29-13 win."
