Drake Maye suddenly has another weapon as Patriots RB looks reborn

The jury was very much out on Rhamondre Stevenson last week after a poor rushing performance against the Raiders in Week 1. After an offensive performance that saw the New England Patriots score just 13 points and Stevenson gain 15 rushing yards from seven carries, the feeling was understandable. Against a Miami defensive line that featured a group of proven edge defenders and first-round pick Kenneth Grant on the interior, things didn't seem like they'd improve much.

Patriots' hero saved Week 2 win with flair (and hardly anyone noticed him)

The defense squandered a 12-0 lead in the first half; the rookie kicker missed two extra points, and the special teams unit botched the coverage on a 74-yard punt return. Had it not been for a stellar day from quarterback Drake Maye and offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, the Patriots would be staring down an 0-2 start to the Mike Vrabel era.

TreVeyon Henderson's totals were better: five carries notched him 27 yards, but when omitting his 14-yard carry, he sits at just 3.3 yards per run. He showed a burst, yes, but consistently not all that effective.

Hunter Henry joins elite Patriots company with Week 1 showing

Much was expected from the new Patriots right away. The awful 2024 team, which won a measly four games, only lost six by one score. That gave great hopes for a Renaissance under Mike Vrabel as both coach and team builder in 2025. In the first game, it didn't happen. The 2025 Patriots smacked of the 2024 version against the Raiders, and that's not a compliment. A couple of things did go right, however, though the team is now 0-1.

Nothing was working in any phase of the game, which made it easy for the Raiders to do whatever they pleased to steal a win in Foxboro.
