"But this defense was so fun to watch. Congrats to them. It was so fun to watch. They won the game for us. I didn't throw very well tonight. Need to be better. We did what we had to do. That's what it takes in the playoffs. Proud of this team."
"Thought he came through when we needed him. The tipped pass is something that was unfortunate. That turned into an interception. But the throw to Hunter I thought when we needed him was elite."
Drake Maye completed 17 of 29 passes (58.6 percent) for 268 yards, one touchdown, an interception and a fumble after a strip-sack. New England's defense recorded six sacks and held the Chargers to three points in a 16-3 victory that ended a nearly seven-year postseason win drought. The offense failed to find the early-season rhythm that produced a 72.0 percent completion rate. Ball security was emphasized, with praise for a clutch throw to Hunter. The win depended largely on defensive pressure and forced turnovers.
