Drake Maye and the Patriots walked into Buffalo on a Sunday night and emerged with a 23-20 victory. The second-year quarterback was tough and gritty and all the other things a franchise would want their leader to be in outplaying Josh Allen. Maye completed 22 of his 30 passes for 273 yards and was a perfect 6-for-6 in the fourth quarter. Though he did not find the end zone with any of his linkups there was a palpable sense of poise and determination that Mike Vrabel must be thrilled about seeing shine through.
New England is now 3-2 and vibes are high. It's not unreasonable to think they could end up a playoff team and a road win over Buffalo proves they could make some noise. Fox's Greg Olsen sparked even more fire by sharing his assessment of what he saw while appearing on Wake Up Barstool Monday morning.
