Drake Maye Steers Patriots Past Dolphins 33-27 With Efficient, Turnover-Free Showcase

The performance underscored early gains in command with improved protection under Mike Vrabel’s staff.

Overview

  • Maye went 19-of-23 for 230 yards with two touchdown passes and added a six-yard rushing score.
  • The win moved New England to 1-1 and drew public praise from linemen Garrett Bradbury and Morgan Moses for Maye’s poise and command.
  • Pass protection stabilized as Maye faced pressure on 19.4% of dropbacks, with initial charting crediting the offensive line with only one hurry allowed.
  • Antonio Gibson delivered a 90-yard kickoff-return touchdown in the fourth quarter to put the Patriots back in front.
  • Discipline lagged with 15 penalties, 12 accepted for 75 yards, an issue Mike Vrabel said the team must fix despite the victory.
