The early returns for Patriots' rookie receiver group have been ugly
Briefly

"He didn't execute the way that we all had hoped he would. The Patriots’ pursuit of top-end receiver talent through the NFL Draft hasn't exactly been fruitful as of late.”
"With under five minutes to play in regulation, Maye and the Patriots were marching down the field in hopes of making it a one-possession game. Facing a 4th-and-1 from the Rams' 19, it looked as though the Patriots were about to run a trick play in hopes of gaining that yard and moving the chains further into the red zone."
"But before the play, Polk was whistled for a false start - pushing New England back and forcing Jerod Mayo and his coaching staff to opt for a field goal. It was a brutal lapse in execution at a time where New England seemed to be gaining momentum back on their side in crunch time."
