3-Point Stance: Undisciplined football derailed the Patriots’ chances against the Seahawks

The New England Patriots suffered a 13-10 defeat against the Seattle Seahawks in their Week 1 matchup at Lumen Field. New England carried a 10-3 advantage into the fourth quarter against the defending Super Bowl champions, but their offense faltered down the stretch.

A physical setback to TreVeyon Henderson compounded their struggles during the contest.

Quarterback Drake Maye struggled significantly late, finishing with three interceptions that fueled Seattle's comeback. Head coach Mike Vrabel voiced criticism regarding Maye's late choices, while offensive play-caller Josh McDaniels also drew scrutiny alongside Maye for the team's inability to sustain momentum and close out the victory.
