It is uncanny how similar the current version of the Georgia Tech Football is to the new era of Detroit Lions -
1. Former incompetent Head Coach leaving the team in shambles (Geoff Collins vs Matt Patricia)
2. Bring in new culture changing head coach who believes in building the team through the trenches (Brent Key vs Dan Campbell)
3. Highly recruited QB rejected by former team finds new life with a change of scenery (4 star top 50 recruit Haynes King vs #1 overall pick Jared Goff)
4. Offensive Coordinator who started as a quality control guy is now one of the hottest names in the league (Buster Faulkner vs Ben Johnson)
5. A front office executive who values winning and is willing to take risks (J Batt vs Brad Holmes)
6. Finding top tier recruiting and draft classes that can change the future of the program (GT 2025 Recruiting Class vs Lions 2023 Draft Class)
With a favorable schedule with a good mix of easy wins and resume building wins in 2025, the Jackets are going to make a push for not just an ACC title game but for the CFB Playoff
It's pretty easy to say Maye is very good because he's been, well, very good. Even historically good when looking at underlying stats.
Despite the Patriots run game ranking 51st and Maye being pressured at the 11th-highest rate among the 69 QBs with 1000+ attempts since 2013, Maye ranks:
- 2nd in Dropback SUPLEX (behind only Purdy)
- 3rd in yards/DB
- 5th in EPA/DB (behind Purdy, Manning, Brees, Mahomes)
- 4th in DB SR (behind Purdy, Mahomes, Brees)
- 2nd in SR on just throws
- 3rd in explosive pass%
And to top it off he's the 8th-most efficient scrambler while scrambling at the 2nd-highest rate.
Essentially saying “The reason I could not fire Godsey even though we have the worst offense in the ACC is that the rest of the offensive staff will do an even worse job in the interim” is a terrible look for Key
Key on why he didn't fire Godsey as well: the offense has been as bad as the defense. He said offense and defense are very different, and who might be capable of putting us in a better position to win. Who is capable of filling that role also factors into it.
The #Patriots got embarrassed at home, and we've got plenty to talk about.
Patriots-Packers postgame reactions, our panic meter, your mailbag questions, and tomorrow's trade deadline.

So I can confirm what Pete Thamel reported about Georgia Tech assistants Jason Semore (DC/LB), Kyle Pope (DE), Allen Mogridge (OL), and Jafar Williams (WR) being dismissed.
There will be additional changes to game-day responsibilities for staff, per sources.
I know McCarthy is talking about Drake Maye here, but this is just as much a problem for the defense. Eight takeaways in nine games. Three games without a single one
That’s not enough, especially for a team that has invested this much in that side of the ball and this secondary
The Patriots need to go 2-3 in the following 5 games to get to 10 wins and a likely playoff spot in a competitive AFC.
vs Lions (in Munich)
vs Bills
vs Vikings
@ Chiefs
vs Broncos
My confidence in their abilities to do this is the lowest it has been IN A WHILE
Back to back weeks of 10pt deficits at half
The turnovers and secondary clearly the story of the game so far
Terrible blitz plan on the 4th quarter drive where they needed 20 yards to try to potentially make it a one score game
Massive adjustments needed
THINK YOU HAVE THE BEST FOOTBALL SPIKE???
Join us after the HOF ceremony at @sixstringfox!
Best spike will win a prize! Event starts at 3pm. All ages welcomed.

Former #Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte via Instagram:
“never got to wear these 😒”
Boutte was sidelined with a hamstring injury when New England debuted their Nor’easter uniforms in Week 11 last season.
Outside of Seattle in Week 1, this Sunday against the Packers will be the toughest test Drake Maye has faced this year. The Packers Pass Defense so far on the year has been -
4th in DVOA
9th in Pass EPA Allowed
6th in Turnover Worthy Play Rate Forced
Along with this they are top 12 in Pressure Rate and Time to Pressure.
This team desperately needs Hunter Henry, AJ Brown and Mack Hollins back in the lineup for this week
With some help, if Drake Maye continues to do what he has been doing this year, the MVP narratives could get significantly louder come Sunday evening
Missing 3 out of 4 starting WR’s, RB2, top 3 guards and TE1.
I know the record is worse this year and the turnovers are up but when purely talking value, Drake Maye is making just as good of an MVP case in 2026 as he did in 2025
