Patriots extend winning streak to eight with 27-14 victory over Jets; Maye shines

Posted Nov 14, 2025

The New England Patriots have elevated their status as Super Bowl contenders, improving to a 9-2 record following a decisive 27-14 victory over the New York Jets.

Why it matters: This win solidifies the Patriots’ position atop the AFC East and marks their eighth consecutive victory, showcasing a remarkable turnaround from last season's struggles.

The team is now one of only four in the last 25 years to start a season with nine wins in its first eleven games after finishing a previous season with four or fewer wins.
Under head coach Mike Vrabel, the Patriots have established a winning culture that has energized both players and fans alike.

What’s new: Quarterback Drake Maye continues to impress, completing 25 of 34 passes for 281 yards, along with one touchdown and no interceptions against the Jets.

With a completion percentage of 71.8% this season, Maye has thrown 20 touchdowns against just five interceptions, positioning himself as a strong candidate for the NFL MVP award.
His performance has drawn comparisons to some of the league's most notable quarterbacks, including Dak Prescott and Lamar Jackson, who also achieved eight straight victories early in their careers.

By the numbers: Maye's consistent play has been pivotal in the Patriots' success.

He has led the team to score at least 20 points in each of their eight consecutive victories, a feat accomplished by only three other quarterbacks in the past two decades during their first or second seasons.
Rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson made headlines in the recent matchup against the Jets, scoring three touchdowns, a milestone previously reached by notable former Patriots like Rob Gronkowski and Sony Michel.

Yes, but: While the Patriots are riding high on this winning streak, challenges remain.

The team's ability to maintain their momentum through the latter half of the season will be crucial as they face teams that may present tougher defenses.
Opponents will likely focus on containing Maye after witnessing his rising star power, which could test the effectiveness of the Patriots’ offensive schemes.

What to watch: As the season progresses, the development of rookies like Henderson and left tackle Will Campbell will be key.

Campbell praised Maye’s elite level of play, stating, "There's no game that we're out of when we have him." Their performance will significantly impact the offensive line's stability and running game effectiveness.

The bottom line: The Patriots are not merely winning; they are redefining expectations under Vrabel's leadership.

With an explosive offense, highlighted by Maye's exceptional quarterbacking and Henderson's contributions, New England is poised to make a deep playoff run if they can sustain their current form.
