- Maye completed 18 of 26 passes for 261 yards and three touchdowns without a turnover as New England moved to 4-2.
- He opened with a 53-yard score to DeMario Douglas and later hit Kayshon Boutte for touchdowns of 25 and 29 yards, with Boutte finishing five catches for 93 yards.
- A 61-yard Maye-to-Douglas touchdown was erased by a late offensive pass interference call on Stefon Diggs that multiple outlets described as controversial.
- With the Saints threatening late, Christian Elliss forced a Juwan Johnson fumble that rookie Craig Woodson recovered on a ruling upheld by replay.
- New England bled the clock after a successful challenge confirmed Boutte’s 21-yard third-and-11 catch in bounds, offsetting a stagnant rushing day, while Spencer Rattler went 20-of-26 for 227 yards and Blake Grupe kicked four field goals for the 1-5 Saints.
