The New England Patriots have a massive AFC East test against the Buffalo Bills, and everything starts with finding a way to make Drake Maye comfortable again. That means New England needs a running game. Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson haven't consistently been given enough space to make things happen. Against Buffalo, that has to change. The Patriots can't put everything on Maye's shoulders and expect the struggling quarterback to suddenly fix the offense himself. Get Stevenson involved. Create opportunities for Henderson. Force Buffalo's defense to respect the run and give Maye more manageable situations. But that's only part of it. New England's wide receivers need somebody to step up against a Bills secondary that has still been adjusting to Jim Leonhard's defensive system. Maye hasn't played his best football, but the Patriots haven't consistently made his job easier either. If New England can establish the run, create separation in the passing game and keep this game close into the second half, the pressure shifts to Buffalo. The Patriots pulled off a statement win in Buffalo last season. If they're going to do it again, Maye can't be asked to carry the entire offense by himself. #Patriots #DrakeMaye #NFL Photo Credit: Eric Canha IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
