"Coach McDaniels has talked to me about improving and getting better in practice as you reach the end of the season and reach the playoff time," he said. "That translates to the game. So it's really big on continuing a little winning streak these last couple games, heading into the playoffs feeling good about ourselves, and feeling like we've still got some work to do."
"There were times I feel like I put the team in a bad spot ... things in the game that made me want to punch a wall."
"It's there, it's just the consistency. As we get into the season, there's more tape and every team is going to scheme and watch our plays, and formations, and what runs"
The New England Patriots are 12-3 after a dramatic fourth-quarter comeback that clinched a playoff berth, but the team is banged up and faces a potential letdown against the 3-12 Jets. Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels is pushing quarterback Drake Maye to improve in practice late in the season to carry that improvement into games. Maye acknowledged turnover problems, including an interception, a lost fumble and a sloppy handoff, and said those plays frustrated him. Players identified areas to target, with right guard Mike Onwenu noting the running game lacks consistency as opponents study tape and schemes more closely.
