Maye used his legs and the underneath passing attack to move the football early in the game while they built a 10-0 lead. Averaging just 2.4 air yards per pass, Maye was 17-of-22 for 127 yards and a touchdown playing an efficient style of offense. Then, the quarterback admitted he lost patience in the fourth quarter. Maye threw three bad fourth quarter interceptions as he hunted big plays — seeing his average air yards per attempt jump to 8.0 in the final frame.

Maye's fourth-quarter collapse with 3 INTs while hunting plays derails efficient start

Drake Maye's Week 1 performance was inconsistent; he efficiently moved the offense early (17-of-22, 127 yards, 1 TD on 2.4 air yards per attempt) while building a 10-0 lead, but admitted losing patience in the fourth quarter and threw three bad interceptions while hunting big plays (8.0 air yards per attempt in final frame). Seattle's zone defense limited explosives, and Maye's late-game aggression and poor decisions cost the Patriots in a 13-10 loss.
