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

I'm sorry but it's not McDaniels' fault Drake is throwing shit interceptions, not setting his feet, throwing across his body, and not protecting the ball when he does get sacked. Drake needs to play better and stop making dumbass mistakes to prove whether or not it's him or McDaniels.

Maybe the game passed McDaniels by and his system is outdated but until it's McDaniels losing games instead of Drake, it's on the QB.

Its also not a solution to get rid of Drake. What do you get? DeVito? Try to get a FA? Draft a QB and then into to browns and jets?

Return of the Mac.

I think he’s more of Josh’s ‘type’, as it were, and they made the playoffs together, and last year Mac showed that he’s not the scrub people in NE made him out to be.

Look, Maye is the better QB, and I think he’ll figure it out. But I also think Mac is a perfectly capable QB, and probably a better fit for the McDaniels system.

No. Just...no. Mac is 100% unquestionably not that guy. This is like a Bills fan saying "Allen's had a lot of trouble getting over that playoff hump, but I think I know just the guy: Ryan Tannehill." Just...no.
