Drake Maye stood at the podium after the New England Patriots dropped a disastrous contest to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 15. He affirmed his multi-dimensional abilities as a quarterback, headlined by his confidence in making plays with his legs.

Sunday marked a change in pace for the Patriots as offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt trusted Maye to carry the ball himself on designed plays, headlined by a fourth-down zone read for 13 years in the fourth quarter to keep a touchdown drive alive.

Maye racked up 261 yards and two touchdowns through the air along with 30 yards on the ground on six rush attempts.
