The New England Patriots faced a significant setback with a 35-6 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, dropping their record to 1-2 after three games. Quarterback Drake Maye's performance has been a major concern, with two interceptions and failing to reach 200 passing yards.

Orlovsky also pointed out the absence of Stefon Diggs, whose presence significantly impacted the Patriots' offensive performance, to be a contributing factor to their struggles.
