Former College Football Star Issues Bold Drake Maye, Patriots Claim
Our Summary
The New England Patriots are currently enjoying a five-game winning streak, bringing their season record to 6-2 and placing them at the top of the AFC East division. This success is largely attributed to the impressive performance of second-year quarterback Drake Maye. The team now holds the No. 2 seed in the AFC. Despite preseason expectations labeling them as potential fringe playoff contenders, the Patriots have exceeded predictions and are now considered capable of making a strong postseason run, according to former college football star Manti Te’o. The Patriots will aim to maintain their momentum in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons.
