Drake Maye accounts for 5 TDs as Patriots roll past Raiders 45-17

Drake Maye showcased his skills as the quarterback for the New England Patriots, contributing to a convincing 45-17 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. Over two consecutive games, Maye threw for three touchdowns without committing any turnovers, marking him as the first Patriots player since Tom Brady in 2018 to achieve such a feat. In this game alone, he completed 26 of 34 passes for 374 yards, tallying two touchdowns and adding a rushing score. Pop Douglas, Hunter Henry, and Kyle Williams also found the end zone.

Rhamondre Stevenson added to the Patriots' offensive arsenal with a crucial rushing touchdown. Despite facing a setback after losing key defensive players to injuries, the Patriots managed to maintain their lead with a season-high 536 total yards. The Raiders, led by Kirk Cousins, struggled to find the end zone and were replaced by Fernando Mendoza with the game well in hand. Maye capped off the Patriots' impressive performance with his 3-yard rushing touchdown, securing the win for New England.
