"The New England Patriots are on the upswing after their win over reigning MVP Josh Allen and the Super Bowl hopeful Bills. The passing game has been electric this season, with Drake Maye on pace to throw just seven interceptions on the year and being top five in passing yards. Stefon Diggs' emergence over the past two weeks has been great to see, too, with back-to-back 100-yard games. All in all, there's plenty to be excited about."
"Rookie TreVeyon Henderson has disappointed as well, rushing for 3.8 per carry and struggling when he got more touches against the Steelers in Week 3. The most effective back as of late has been Antonio Gibson, rushing for 4.2 per carry and nabbing his first offensive touchdown against the Panthers in Week 4. He had a kick return touchdown in Week 2 and was very effective in that role as well."
The New England Patriots' passing game has improved, with Drake Maye on pace for seven interceptions and ranking among the top five in passing yards. Stefon Diggs has posted back-to-back 100-yard games. The running game has struggled: Rhamondre Stevenson has three fumbles in five games and averages under four yards per carry, including multiple games below 2.2 yards. Rookie TreVeyon Henderson averages 3.8 yards per carry and struggled with a larger role. Antonio Gibson averaged 4.2 yards per carry and scored offensively but suffered an ACL tear that ends his season. The Patriots may seek a veteran running back, with Gus Edwards noted as a candidate due to multiple 700-yard seasons and a four-year 5.0+ yards-per-carry streak.
