"The New England Patriots no doubt have a star in Drake Maye. The passing offense has been revolutionized under his leadership. He's made journeymen like Mack Hollins look like stars, and Kayshon Boutte, once an afterthought, one of the best deep threats in the league. So far, he has 3,567 yards with a 70.9% completion rate, 27 total touchdowns, and 7 interceptions. He's second in MVP odds only behind Matthew Stafford, and rightfully so."
"The Patriots have had six games this season in which they've scored 30+ points. Except for their matchup against the Giants, Drake Maye has attempted fewer than 25 passes in each of these dominant offensive performances. During that time, they are also 5-1, their only loss coming against the Bills this past Sunday."
"The Patriots are 26th in pass attempts per game, averaging 29.4 per game. When attempting less than that average (29 or fewer passes), New England is 6-1. When the Patriots do put up big numbers, Drake Maye's final stats haven't wowed. Instead, efficiency has been his game: in four of the six performances in which the Patriots scored 30+, he's had a passer rating over 125.0."
Drake Maye has delivered an elite passing season with 3,567 yards, a 70.9% completion rate, 27 touchdowns and seven interceptions, ranking second in MVP odds. The Patriots average 27.3 points per game, seventh in the league and 10.3 points above their 2024 average, with several dominant wins including a 42-13 victory over the Panthers. Many 30+ point games have featured fewer than 25 pass attempts from Maye, and the team ranks 26th in pass attempts per game at 29.4. When passing less than that average New England is 6-1, and Maye has shown strong efficiency with multiple passer ratings above 125.
