Maye had another dazzling display Sunday, putting up five passing touchdowns on 19-of-21 passing for 256 yards as the Patriots throttled the Jets, 42-10, at MetLife Stadium. With the Buffalo Bills losing later in the day, the win secures the AFC East crown for the Patriots.

Vrabel was asked after the win if he feels Maye is the league MVP.“Oh, well, I certainly — they don’t give me a vote, but I would. There’s nobody else that we want as our quarterback or that I want as our quarterback,” Vrabel said, via a team-provided transcript.
