""It just wasn't one of our better plays," Vrabel said."
""Again, we just have to take advantage of the plays that we do call and hit it when we have guys open, and just being able to start the second half, being able to go down there and continue that drive, unfortunately not turn it over and be able to create some momentum in that situation.""
""The bottom line is we have to run the ball better and we have to run it more efficiently," Vrabel said. "Because then I think that all opens up some more of the stuff that we're doing, can do and want to be able to do so that it's not just a drop-back passing game.""
On a soggy day in Foxborough, the Patriots abandoned the run in the second half and attempted 46 passes from Drake Maye. Rookie TreVeyon Henderson, Rhamondre Stevenson, and Antonio Gibson combined for 18 carries for 60 yards, producing limited ground production. Maye displayed jitters with several high throws and threw an interception that undermined momentum. The defense played reasonably well and Kayshon Boutte delivered a notable receiving performance. Failure to sustain the run made the offense one-dimensional and hindered playcalling variety. The team acknowledged a need to run the ball better and more efficiently to open up the offense.
