After taking an ugly loss to the Arizona Cardinals, morale within the New England Patriots wasn't particularly high, with players like Drake Maye expressing their dissatisfaction with how the season was going after the game.
But what went wrong? I mean, sure, the Cardinals aren't schmucks, but they aren't a bad team either, sitting at an even 7-7 with three games left to play. Well, part of it has to do with the Patriots' inability to get much going on the early drive, with the “scripted” option of the game failing to produce much in the way of results.
