Overview

  • Drake Maye went 14-for-17 for 203 yards with two touchdown passes and a rushing score, posting his third straight game with a passer rating over 100.
  • Stefon Diggs delivered six catches for 101 yards for his first 100-yard game since 2023 as New England expanded his slot usage.
  • Marcus Jones flipped the game with an 87-yard punt return touchdown and added another long return that set up a score.
  • Vrabel highlighted non-stat contributions from Christian Barmore and DeMario 'Pop' Douglas, then said Diggs should study more after the receiver rated his comfort at 5 out of 10.
  • The Patriots are 2-2 after a season-best 42 points and 6.4 yards per play and now visit the Bills on Sunday night in Diggs’ first game back in Buffalo.
