"Drake Maye has been dialed in virtually all season. He's been everything the New England Patriots hoped for and more in his second NFL campaign, firmly establishing himself as their franchise quarterback. Expectations for Maye have been high since New England selected him No. 3 overall in the 2024 draft. Many (rightfully) anticipated a steeper learning curve following a tumultuous rookie year, but his rapid ascension has the Patriots ahead of schedule."
"I think at the end of the day, winning the Super Bowl is the biggest thing. I think it's what kind of makes this league go is winning the big one. That's what you work toward, and that's what this game is about. I love winning, and the personal accolades come with all that, but I'd rather win than win personal awards."
Drake Maye has delivered consistently strong play throughout the season, rapidly elevating his performance in Year 2 and becoming the New England Patriots' clear franchise quarterback after being selected No. 3 overall in 2024. Early doubts about a prolonged learning curve melted as Maye's fast development pushed the team ahead of schedule and drew national attention. Maye ranks among 2025 MVP contenders but emphasizes team achievement, stating that winning the Super Bowl matters more than individual honors. He projects charismatic leadership and a team-first mentality that resonates within the locker room.
