"Now, don't give me that bull c**p about 'We don't know because their strength of schedule, they haven't played anyone.'; When they put bad teams on your schedule and you keep blowing them out, then have some belief in the team ... with Drake Maye and his superstar TikTok wife baking you some goods, they are a really good football team."
"Though Maye leads the league in QBR (76.5), passer rating (112.9), and completion percentage (71.7%), while also posting the fourth most passing yards (4,203) and tied-third most passing touchdowns (30), the Patriots' strength of schedule (.383) is the lowest in the NFL. McCourty, however, made it clear he doesn't believe that last point should work against Maye's case for the MVP award."
Jason McCourty ranked the Patriots second among NFL teams after Week 17, citing quarterback Drake Maye's play as a major factor. Maye leads the league in QBR (76.5), passer rating (112.9), and completion percentage (71.7%), and ranks fourth in passing yards (4,203) with 30 passing touchdowns. New England's strength of schedule (.383) is the lowest in the league, but McCourty argued that dominant wins over weaker opponents still validate team excellence and MVP consideration. McCourty emphasized that repeatedly blowing out poor teams warrants belief in the Patriots. Maye also rejected schedule-based criticism, calling opponent quality an insufficient measure of performance.
