BOSTON -- Let's just get it out of the way and say that the Patriots have found their quarterback in Drake Maye. That being said, the kid still has some things to learn. Maye was essentially the entire New England offense in a 20-17 overtime loss to the lowly Titans in Tennessee.
He had his great moments, like the final play of regulation when he made something out of nothing for a game-tying touchdown. He ran all over the Titans, who had no answers any time Maye took off. He also made some rookie mistakes, including two interceptions.
His second pick ended the game in overtime, resulting in New England's seventh loss of the season over the first nine weeks. Make no mistake, the future appears to be bright for the Patriots and Maye. But the kid cannot do it all, and on Sunday, he didn't get much help from the rest of the Patriots offense.
The New England defense ran out of steam in the end, and the Patriots lost to a one-win team on Sunday. Here are all the Ups and Downs from Sunday's OT loss in Tennessee. UP: Drake Maye's playmaking THIS is special.
And football fans everywhere deserved an incredible finish to regulation after sitting through a pretty ugly football game. DRAKE MAYE! RHAMONDRE STEVENSON! @PATRIOTS TIE IT UP! pic.twitter.
