Jeepers Henry, what's with the girly arms? I thought you pros were supposed to spend the off season in the weight room...

Ouch! The burn…

But mostly, it’s hard to imagine Maye can look more hesitant or lost post-snap than he has for recent stretches.

Honestly, he's pretty much had very bad protection in front of him, and he's just learning to adapt to the speed and talent in the NFL. He's learning from all this, and as a kid, he has a lot to learn. We need to exercise some patience.

He’s also not facing an elite NFL defense. Some folks seem to think he’s ready to be QB1 because his substandard play can be excused by playing behind a substandard OL. But they forget he’s playing against an equally substandard D. Put him in a game and he’ll be Heinz a better OL facing a better D so those two will balance and he’ll be no better off.

Totally agree about being patient, while he is working in practice and learning by watching from the bench during games. Being “hesitant and lost” on the field won’t help him develop.

Rex Burkhead sighting. Keep him away from Maye’s hands.

Two weeks ago I had no idea who Callahan was. Always an agenda with these guys, being Mr. Hard Ass will get him more clicks and TV spots. It requires no explanation, actual analysis in context, insight, or reporting talent, just sits there like dog poop on a hot sidewalk.

He's been the Patriots beat writer for the Herald since 2018. He's not bad actually, usually pretty level-headed. He's absolutely NOT a Felger, Maz or Volin.
