The PLAY: Drake Maye (NE) Over 30.5 Pass Attempts
New England had a lot of blow-out victories this season, so it's important to filter out the games where the Patriots were essentially running out the clock in the fourth quarter. New England played ten games where they either lost or won by less than a touchdown. In those ten games that were competitive for 60 minutes, Maye averaged 32.4 pass attempts per game. New England is an underdog in this matchup and Maye is likely going to need to throw the ball to keep the Patriots within striking distance. Seattle's defense was No. 1 in EPA per rush attempt and No. 1 in rushing success rate allowed during the regular season. If the Patriots can't get Rhamondre Stevenson going (only 2.8 yards per carry vs Denver two weeks ago), Maye will need to carry New England's offense through the air.
