Drake Maye, Stefon Diggs and the New England Patriots delivered a statement to the entire NFL back in Week 5, when they traveled to Orchard Park on a Sunday night and handed the then-undefeated Buffalo Bills a stunning, 23-20 defeat.
How loud was that tone-setting moment? The Patriots haven’t lost a game since, second-year quarterback Drake Maye has crashed the NFL’s MVP party, and head coach Mike Vrabel might already be the NFL’s Coach of the Year.
It all sets up the rematch Patriots fans have had circled for weeks — the chance to slay Josh Allen and the Bills, again, to become the NFL’s first division champion of the 2025 season.
