NFL officials screw Patriots out of another impressive Drake Maye touchdown

The Patriots are down in New Orleans for Week 6, and their game began with quite the hot streak, as Drake Maye threw a 53-yard bomb to DeMario Douglas for the team's first touchdown of the day. This came after Saints QB Spencer Rattler had thrown his own impressive 53-yard pass.

Once the Patriots offense got the ball back, Maye decided to build upon what he did on the first drive and throw a 61-yard pass to Douglas for another touchdown, bringing New England up 13-6 near the end of the first quarter, only for the referees to throw a phantom flag to take the score away.
