"Patriots quarterback Drake Maye is coming off a stirring road win over Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers in which he had his lowest completion rate of the season (16 of 31, 51.6 percent), struggled early throwing a wet football, and yet enhanced his NFL Most Valuable Player candidacy with some sensational and clutch throws in a 28-23 victory, most notably a 54-yard bomb to Mack Hollins on a third-and-14 play in the fourth quarter."
"Part of this is because of injury, but Fields has thrown for fewer than 55 yards in a game four times this season, including Sunday against the Browns. He also has had fewer than 10 completions in a game four times, and has thrown just six touchdown passes in eight starts. In other words: There is no team that is more justified in envying the Patriots' good fortune in landing Maye than the Jets."
MVP frontrunner Drake Maye leads the Patriots into a Thursday night home game against the Jets after a stirring road win over Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers. Maye had his lowest completion rate of the season but produced sensational, clutch throws including a 54-yard bomb to Mack Hollins on third-and-14 that sealed a 28-23 victory. The Jets counter with Justin Fields, an outstanding runner whose passing remains inconsistent; he has thrown for fewer than 55 yards four times, recorded fewer than 10 completions in four games, and totaled six touchdown passes in eight starts. Rookie TreVeyon Henderson delivered a breakout performance with 147 yards and two long touchdown runs.
