"If the New England Patriots were going to break their long losing streak in Miami, Drake Maye was going to have to be better than he was in Week 1's loss to Las Vegas. Boy, was he ever in South Florida, completing 19 of 23 passes for 230 yards and two touchdowns while adding a rushing TD and 31 yards on the ground in the Patriots' 33-27 win over the Dolphins."
"Perhaps the most important statistic? No turnovers. Maye did not throw a single interception, nor did the Patriots give the ball away. That's always a recipe for winning a division game on the road, especially in a stadium where New England hadn't won since 2019, Tom Brady's final season here. Right from the get-go, Maye was dialed in. He didn't sail any throws."
Drake Maye delivered a markedly improved performance in Miami, completing 19 of 23 passes for 230 yards and two passing touchdowns while adding a rushing touchdown and 31 yards on the ground. The Patriots committed no turnovers, a decisive factor in securing a 33-27 road victory in a stadium they had not won in since 2019. A 55-yard wheel route to Rhamondre Stevenson set up Maye's touchdown run late in the third quarter, shifting momentum. Teammates praised Maye's growth, with Stefon Diggs noting visible progress and the value of veteran mentorship.
