"One of those moments came on Super Bowl LX's Opening Night when several players met a flood of 5,000 media members. During quarterback Drake Maye's time at the podium, one reporter was heard comparing him to another former Patriots quarterback - Tom Brady - to which Maye had a very simple response to try and shut it down immediately: Specifically, one reporter called Maye "the second coming" of the greatest to ever do it. That isn't just high praise. It's absurd, and Maye knows it."
"Drake Maye isn't Tom Brady, but the numbers are actually pretty absurd Now, even though the comparisons between Brady and Maye sound ridiculous right now (and they probably always will), let's not shy away from Maye's trajectory. The simple fact is this: Maye and the Patriots reached the Super Bowl in what was supposed to be a "rebuilding" season. Maye might not end up winning seven Super Bowls during his time in the league."
Super Bowl week featured a media surge of roughly 5,000 members at Opening Night. A reporter called Drake Maye "the second coming" of Tom Brady, prompting Maye to reject the comparison. Maye and the Patriots reached the Super Bowl during a season labeled a "rebuilding" year. The team has coach Mike Vrabel and franchise quarterback Drake Maye locked in, creating a foundation for future championships. Maye produced outstanding Year 2 results, including leading the league with a 72.0 percent completion rate. Maye may not match Brady's seven Super Bowls, but he projects as a multi-championship candidate.
