New England's Week 2 formula did not survive Jacksonville. The Patriots were held to six points in a 35-6 loss and fell four spots in PFM as both the offense and recent-performance outlook dropped hard. Drake Maye still gives New England a ceiling, but the line, run game and defense cannot be treated as reliable support after a loss this one-sided.
New England dropped after a 35-6 loss to Jacksonville. Recent Performance and Offense Strength declined sharply, and the staff review also lowered Coaching Direction after the one-sided result.
New England wants to be balanced around Drake Maye, with the run game and defense keeping the quarterback out of constant rescue situations. Jacksonville's 35-6 win exposed how fragile that identity still is when protection, early-down offense and defensive resistance all disappear at once.
New England needs the supporting cast to hold up when the first option is taken away. The biggest roster test is offensive-line protection around a young quarterback carrying a larger share of the offense.
