The show also tackles the fallout from Mike Onwenu’s injury, interior O-line depth, and whether preseason snaps would have boosted rookie Drake Maye.

All eyes were on Drake Maye heading into the Patriots home opener and week two matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. But, by the end of the day, it was Zak Kuhr’s Defense that stole all the headlines with a dominant performance against Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers Offense. Led by two big plays from Christian Barmore, a scoop and score from Elijah Ponder and the usual excellence from Christian Gonzalez, the Steelers had no answers.Meanwhile, Drake Maye didn’t necessarily answer the questions the Pats hoped he would after the fourth quarter meltdown in Seattle. Maye made some plays, but also made multiple mistakes, leaving plenty of fans queasy. Romeo Doubs made two big plays, but Kyle Williams, Mack Hollins, and Pop were virtually invisible.But, the biggest question leaving week two isn’t Drake Maye, it’s the roster. Several key injuries to starting Patriots leave the team in a dangerous position moving forward. Mike Onwenu, Dre’Mont Jones, Craig Woodson and others had to leave Sunday’s game.

Drake Maye and the Patriots absolutely melted down in an epic fourth quarter collapse in Seattle to lose, 13-10. Maye threw three interceptions, making multiple terrible decisions in throws in the final quarter. Meanwhile, the defense decided to not defend the Seahawks’ best offensive player on a 45-yard touchdown.Oh, and by the way, this all happened with Seattle being led by their backup QB, Drew Lock, after Sam Darnold left after the first drive of the game.
