I’d like to say I’m surprised, but I tried to warn everyone before the 2025 NFL season kicked off: I said Drake Maye would emerge as the best quarterback of his draft class and the New England Patriots were going to be a playoff team. Yes, that same class featured Caleb Williams, the No. 1 pick, and Jayden Daniels, who reached the NFC Championship Game in his first season. None of that mattered to me. I said from the beginning that Maye was going to be the quarterback who wou
