After last week's downfall by all parts of the Patriots' team, there is a lot of pressure on them to turn things around on Sunday Night Football against the Ravens. Their efforts in the first half of last week's game were impressive, but their second-half collapse made them underdogs in Week 16, despite their better record.
A big part of their loss was the dramatic turnaround of Drake Maye as soon as they returned to the field in the third quarter.
Some of that, of course, can be blamed on the offensive game plan, which prompted many questions about Josh McDaniels, but the proof is in the pudding: what the OC and Maye have accomplished this year is nothing short of impressive, and because of that, they can't be counted out this weekend.
