Drake Maye prompts ‘MVP’ chants after throwing 3 TD passes, joining elite company in rout

Posted Oct 27, 2025
You might be able to slow down Drake Maye for one half. But with the way he’s playing, even the No. 1-ranked defense in the NFL can’t do it for an entire game. After the Browns kept Maye from producing a touchdown in the first half, he threw three TD passes in the third quarter as the Patriots turned a two-point halftime lead into a blowout win.
