STACKED’s take
Maye's 269-yard, three-TD bounce-back answers early-season concerns about his viability.
After a shaky 1-2 start marked by poor decision-making and nine turnovers through three games, Drake Maye delivered his best performance of the season in Week 4 with 269 yards and three touchdowns against Buffalo. Multiple experts note this performance answered questions about his ability to carry the Patriots; Nate Davis asks if this offensive outburst will steady Maye and the team, while Vinnie Iyer credits the Patriots for empowering him to play with confidence against a vulnerable Bills defense. Ralph Vacchiano and Pete Prisco emphasize the significance of Maye pushing aside criticism to play well in a crucial road win. Coach Mike Vrabel declared the team 'back in the race' after Maye's fourth-quarter performance, and Maye himself called it 'relieving a little bit.' However, he still leads the NFL with nine turnovers after adding two more on Sunday.
