Drake Maye throws for another three scores in Week 6

The New England Patriots’ turnaround under new head coach Mike Vrabel took another step forward in Week 6, as rookie quarterback Drake Maye led the team to a hard-fought 26–19 victory over the New York Jets. Maye’s performance was the focal point of the win, with three touchdown passes helping New England overcome a late Jets rally and secure their second straight AFC East win.

Despite early struggles and a shaky first half—including missed opportunities and costly turnovers—the Patriots’ defense held firm in the final frames to preserve the narrow margin. The win improved their record to 3–2, offering a much-needed boost after a rocky start to the season, while also keeping their three-game winning streak alive.

Jets head coach Brian Duker had previously called Maye a frustrating opponent, a sentiment echoed by Patriots fans who praised the young quarterback’s recent development and consistency. Injuries continued to plague New England, but Maye’s ability to execute the offensive game plan has become a defining factor in their recent success.
