MVP Showdown: Unbelievable Sunday Clash Leaves Fans Speechless

Raise your hand if you’re a non-Patriots fan and have a preseason ticket on Drake Maye to be the MVP. I don’t really see any in the virtual crowd, but I’m sure someone out there had this expectation. Maye has been fantastic for the Pats to this point in the year. He has thrown for 2,285 yards and slung 17 touchdowns. Most importantly, he has protected the ball rather well, with just four interceptions. New head coach Mike Vrabel has done an admirable job getting the defense ready for the season as well. They are ninth overall in yards allowed to opponents and are holding teams to just 18.8 points per game. New England is 1st in the AFC East and has won six straight games after a 1-2 start. Should we be really impressed with the Patriots, though? They beat the Bills in Buffalo which is a big achievement for even the best of teams. Outside of that, their wins are against the Dolphins, Panthers, Saints, Titans, Browns, and Falcons. The Falcons are the least predictable team in the world, in my opinion, at least. The Patriots were a missed extra-point from going into overtime, so it wasn’t like they blew out Atlanta. The Patriots will make the playoffs; outside of this game, they only have to face the Bills and Ravens the remainder of the season. Everything else should be a win.
