Drake Maye is a great playmaker for the New England Patriots. Unfortunately, the team doesn’t have many players around him that live up to that title or his profile.
That didn’t stop the rookie quarterback from praising his Patriots teammates on offense as such.
The Patriots moved the ball at times and created chunk plays against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 13. New England’s defense surrendered the lead late in the loss, but the offense took some steps forward.
“I think we’re dynamic,” Maye told reporters, per team-provided transcript. “I think we can hurt them in the pass game and the run game. We can do different things. We have play action. We have boot. We have running the football. We have throwing it down the field. We have guys making plays, run after catch. There’s another layer to it of making more explosive plays, but we saw a lot of run after catch today.”
New England still has a long way to go in converting in the red zone and maintaining consistent production, though the Patriots showed flashes Sunday.
