The New England Patriots headed into the 2024 NFL season with a new head coach and a new starting quarterback, with the storied franchise making the decision to head in a new direction by parting ways with Bill Belichick and Mac Jones in favor of Jerod Mayo and Drake Maye.<\/p>\n

Although the Patriots got off to a strong start by pulling off the upset against Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium in Week 1, the team has struggled ever since, with New England now leaning on their rookie quarterback in the second half of the season.<\/p>\n

Even though Maye has shown that he\u2019s raw and needs some polish to reach his potential under center in New England, he has also shown flashes of brilliance, as he\u2019s drawn comparisons to Josh Allen as of late because of his ability to make plays with his legs as well as his arm.<\/p>\n

Coming into Week 10, the Patriots had a formidable opponent to face on the road at Soldier Field, taking on Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears, but Maye and company were able to pull off the upset, leading to a special moment for the rookie to start his postgame press conference where he praised New England\u2019s defense via Savage Sports.<\/p>\n

\u201cPhones down, phone\u2019s down. Notepads down. We\u2019re clapping up the defense. Clap it up, clap it up. Somebody else clap up. There we go,\u201d Maye said.<\/p>\n
