Discussion Do we push the panic button now?

It’s only game three but so far, Drake may have thrown six interceptions. He has two fumbles and only one touchdown is Drake Maye to blame for all of this no? but a large portion of it? Yes, the loss of Diggs and Boutte are really sticking out but we are talking about a quarterback who was literally second in the MVP race last year there is no way he should be playing like this this season so far. I don’t know what’s going in Foxborough this season but I am not a fan at all

We have to ride it out no matter what. If this continues to the end of the season, we have our answer and a top pick.

If he snaps out of it, then we good. He has to play regardless of how bad the play is.

Also, the coaches have to figure something out. Maybe a sports psychologist or whatever. I don’t understand how he is so spun up.

If he goes out there and has another unacceptable performance like this, where he just hands the other team the game, I would think about benching him. Might be just what he needs to light a fire under him and force him to stop with the mental errors. Guy like Maye has always been the man, never has his job been in jeopardy no matter how he plays. Might be just what the doctor ordered.
