"The New England Patriots bet on quarterback Drake Maye having all the tools needed to turn this franchise around after a few terrible seasons in a row, and he has fulfilled every scintilla of promise he showed by turning New England into a team that is not to be trifled with. Maye's brilliant 2025 season may end up with him getting some individual accolades, including a Pro Bowl or All-Pro nod as he chases an MVP award."
"Maye isn't just piling up stats on a crappy team. The Patriots have the best record in the NFL, are atop the wide-open AFC with an 11-2 record, and have won 10 straight games for the first time since Tom Brady was in town in 2015. Mike Vrabel has done a masterful job with Maye and the rest of this team."
Drake Maye produced a breakout sophomore season, leading the NFL in completion percentage (71.5%), passing yards (3,412) and passer rating (111.9%) in his first full year as a starter. Fan voting placed him atop Pro Bowl tallies, narrowly ahead of Jaxon Smith-Njigba, while his statistical dominance has narrowed the MVP race mainly to him and Matthew Stafford. The Patriots sit 11-2 with a 10-game win streak, benefited from Josh McDaniels' offense and Mike Vrabel's coaching, and have regained status as a top NFL franchise with Maye positioned for major individual and team honors.
