"It was a masterful showing by the entire team, but especially by Drake Maye, as it firmly put him back in the MVP conversation after one of the best quarterback performances in NFL history. Despite that, there was still a game to be played on Monday Night Football by the Rams and MVP frontrunner Matthew Stafford, with most believing they'd beat the Falcons with ease."
"Looking at Maye and Stafford's stats for the 2025 season, there is a lot to like about what the second-year quarterback has accomplished this year, which has only been further highlighted after the Rams fell to the Falcons on Monday Night. Comparing their stats against common opponents makes Maye look even better, and it's getting to a point where it would be an injustice not to give the Patriots' quarterback the coveted award."
The Patriots clinched the AFC East heading into their 2025 season finale after demolishing the Jets and watching the Bills lose. Drake Maye delivered a standout performance that reignited his MVP case following one of the best quarterback outings in recent memory. The Rams and MVP frontrunner Matthew Stafford unexpectedly lost to the Falcons, with Stafford throwing three interceptions, including a pick-6, and falling to an 11-5 record while the NFC West slipped out of reach. Bettors have moved Maye up in the odds, and common-opponent stats (Maye 6-0; Stafford 4-2) further bolster Maye's case.
