Drake Maye Faces Challenging Ravens Defense Amidst Deep-Ball Struggles

Patriots QB Drake Maye faces a "sneaky-challenging" matchup against the Ravens, particularly with his deep-ball efficiency dropping to 30.4% recently, down from 76.5% earlier in the season. Despite this, he remains football's best downfield passer (60.7% on 10+ yards). The Ravens are tough against deep passes, but vulnerable to play-action (Patriots 7th-most efficient) and intermediate throws (Patriots 1st). Maye's mobility, a key weapon (350 scramble yards, 23 first downs), may be stifled as Baltimore limits QB scrambles effectively.
