Drake Maye to Start

Saleh firing left the door open for the division. 👀

[That's No Moon]

No reason not to start the kid.

He is going to get brutalized.  Way to stick your rookie out there too early, potentially ruin his career.

[Captain Hindsight]

He's going to struggle. I like Maye, but that is a rough position to be in. That team has very little talent 

 

As an aside, the Pats* move on from BB, which was the right move IMO. But the fact they didnt even do a coaching search at all and just hired Mayo is still Bizarre to me

I’d normally agree but their offensive line may get him destroyed

There was a clip by Dan Orlavsky from ESPN who pleaded with NE not to start Maye behind this OL

[HansLanda]

This seemed to be about the right timeline anyway. Have to play him. 

[Back2Buff]

Over under on games before hurt?  1.5?

[T.E.]

Wow, Houston had Allen running for his life all game, and NE's line is way worse than ours.

Can’t seem to think of a QB who has muscular arms.

I actually think it’s a good move.  They see Daniels maybe getting MVP for goodness sakes and Caleb starting to feel it.  What they gonna do? The kid has talent let him learn on the job.  He doesn’t have to get beaten up. hand off and throw screens. Just get him playing time so they aren’t starting from scratch in 2025.

The offensive line is TERRIBLE. Literally a collection of non-talents.

I don't know if you're aware of how poor the offensive line talent (and play) is on that team. Like, unbelievably bad.

especially when you resisted it so far.. They should have either started him last week against a reeling Dolphins team or start him next week. Starting him against a rolling Texans team just seems ill-advised.
