The New England Patriots face off against the New York Jets in their first meeting of the 2025 NFL season tonight at 8:20 p.m. ET on Amazon Prime, with QB Drake Maye being among the current MVP favorites and trying to further make his case.
Maye exited both matchups early with the Jets in his rookie 2024 season, but gets a great chance to beat up on the lowly Big Apple squad, with the Jets giving fire sale vibes during last week’s trade deadline.
Let’s dive into the key Drake Maye stats and PrizePicks projections to watch on of this primetime matchup.

Maye has been nothing short of stupendous in his sophomore season. With 21 total touchdowns, 2,500+ passing yards, and a nearly 72% completion percentage, he has rocketed up the board to become one of the top QBs in the league.
The University of North Carolina product gets a strong matchup on paper against the wobbly Jets after they traded away their top cornerback and interior defensive lineman last week. The Jets allow the fifth-most rushing yards to QBs, sixth among signal callers in rush yards, per Lineups.

With the Jets unloading DT Quinnen Williams last week, one of the threats to stop Maye on the ground disappeared. That could be great news for this projection, as Maye has topped 23 yards on the ground in three of his last five games.
While Maye has not gotten there in the last two weeks, consider that he has 15 total runs in that span. This is a quarterback who is happy to scramble going against the defense that allowed five QBs to hit for at least 24 yards.
