Glaring offensive concern quietly becomes the Patriots biggest obstacle

The New England Patriots have vastly improved their offense compared to last season. After ranking 30th in PPG last year, Drake Maye and company have shot up to 7th in football, scoring 27 per game. Even more impressive, they haven't seen a drop off in offense on the road, as they average even more PPG (27.7) outside of Foxborough.

Drake Maye leads the league in pass yards, and New England is third in pass yards per game. While the rushing offense ranks 20th, TreVeyon Henderson has been a revelation to the backfield in Rhamondre Stevenson's absence, with 60+ yards in five out of the last six weeks, including a 147-yard performance against the Buccaneers and five total touchdowns in a two-game span.
