Drake Maye went 2/37 with 265 passing yards, 58 rushing yards, 323 total yards, 3 passing touchdowns, and 1 interception due to Romeo Doubs dropping a pass instead of him. Drake Maye was pressured on 21 percent of his 37 pass attempts and still found a way to deliver a win on the road against the undefeated Bills without Christian Gonzalez or Christian Barmore. Drake Maye is the only quarterback to be undefeated in Highmark Stadium and New Highmark Stadium.


Only five other quarterbacks have won player of the game this year as Drake Maye was our only quarterback to win player of the game in wek 4 as well as the sixth quarterback to win player of the game this season. Those other five quarterbacks are Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Willliams, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, and San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy.


New England Patriots left tackle Will Campbell gets an honorable mention as this is the second time I gave Will Campbell an honorable mention as Will Campbell got an honorable mention in New England's week 2 win against Pittsburgh with Will Campbell being the only left tackle in the NFL to get an honorable mention twice in the first four weeks of the season. Will Campbell had 45 pass block snaps, 0 sacks, allowed 1 quarterback hit, 5 hurries, 6 total ressures allowed, a 92.9 pass block efficiency grade, 1 penalty, and helped New England get 143 rushing yards. Will Campbell also won the Draft Utopia poll question to be on our NFL Predictions pages during both his rookie an sophomore seasons since being drafted fourth overall. Drake Maye and Will Campbell have both done enough to earn fifth year tenders with New England as of right now, but both got to continue to improve with consistency to earn contract extensions after their third seasons are up.


New England Patriots wide receiver Efton Chism III also gets an honorable mention for getting the game-winning touchdown. Efton Chism III had 4 receptions on 4 targets, 41 receiving yards, and 1 receiving touchdown. Former Pittsburgh Steelers legend Antonio Brown of CTESPN named him Cracker Of The Day following his game-winning touchdown over the Buffalo Bills. Efton Chism III was a guy I had a fourth round grade on and was my second best wide receiver to come out of Eastern Washington since Cooper Kupp who I had a first round grade on.


As long as New England keeps Drake Maye, Will Campbell, and Christian Gonzalez, they will have a Super Bowl window if they keep those three under contract for the entirety of their NFL careers. Everyone who talked about New England's schedule and Drake Maye's meatball subs has retreated to the sewers or bomb shelters following New England's victory over my preseason Super Bowl pick the Buffalo Bills, and honeslty that's how it should be.





New York Jets 1-3-0
Versus
Chicago Bears 3-1-0


Game Recap: CHICAGO-New York headed to Chicago. New York did not have Breece Hall, Omar Cooper Jr., Adonai Mitchell, and Mason Taylor with the Jets not having three of their top four weapons not named Garrett Wilson. New York would start Isaiah Williams as their second wide receiver next to Garrett Wilson. Kenyon Sadiq and Jeremy Ruckert started at tight end. Braelon Allen started at running back. Jamon Meredith started in relief of the injured Dylan Parham at left guard. Will McDonald IV filled in for Joseph Ossai at 3-4 right outside linebacker. New York did get starting free safety Minkah Fitzpatrick back this week which is huge since his backup Andre Cisco last years starting free safety on the New York Jets got injured in week 3. Backup quarterback Tyson Bagent got the start at quarterback for Chicago with Caleb Williams still out with an injury. Third string quarterback Case Keenum got Chicago their second win on Monday Night Football. Chicago put left tackle Braxton Jones on injured reserve prior to this game as Braxton Jones is starting for Ozzy Trapilo is also injured, so the Bears had to start their third string left tackle.


D'Andre Swift ran for a gain of two. Tyson Bagent threw a seven yard pass to Luther Burden III. D'Andrew Swift ran for a gain of seven. New York Jets 3-4 right outside linebacker Will McDonald IV kept D'Andre Swift from gaining any yards. D'Andre Swift ran for a gain of four. Tyson Bagent threw a twenty one yard pass to Rome Odunze.

Tyson Bagent threw a twelve yard pass to Colston Loveland. Tyson Bagent began this game 5/5 with 62 passing yards, 0 passing touchdowns, and 0 interceptions or incompletions. Tyson Bagent threw his first incomplete pass. D'Andre Swift had a rushing touchdown on second and goal, but it was overturned. The same exact thing happened on fourth and goal and that is why the Chicago Bears failed to score on their opening drive.


Geno Smith threw an incomplete pass on his first pass attempt. New York came up empty handed.


Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai got a rushing touchdown. New York had the football for two minutes and eleven seconds in the first quarter going 0/1 on third down conversions. Chicago had the football for twelve minutes and forty nine seconds going 2/5 on third down conversions and 2/3 on fourth down conversions. Chicago led 7-0 after one quarter of play.


Chicago Bears 4-3 right end got by New York Jets backup left guard Jamon Meredith to sack Geno Smith on third down. The New York Jets offensive line sucks without Dylan Parham.


New York Jets free safety Minkah Fitzpatrick got an interception. This was the New York Jets first interception in twenty one games during Aaron Glenn's tenure as a head coach. This interception came against a backup, so I'm continuing to count the Jets streak until they intercept a starting quarterback.


New York Jets kicker Jason Sanders made a 36 yard field goal. Chicago led 7-3.


Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos made a field goal. Chicago led 10-3.


Cairo Santos made another field goal. Chicago led 13-3 at halftime.

Cairo Santos nailed his third field goal. Chicago led 23-6.


New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith threw a 58 yard touchdown pass to New York Jets secondary wide receiver Isaiah Williams. Jason Sanders missed the extra point. New York had the football for forty five seconds in the fourth quarter. Chicago had the football for fourteen minutes and forty five seconds in the fourth quarter. Chicago won 23-12.

Trevor Lawrence did not have 300 total yards, none of the Jaguars running backs had 100 total yards, none of the receivers or tight ends had 100 yards, nobody on the defense had 10 total tackles. Anton Harrison sucked in the first quarter, but he was perfect in the final three quarters, so with no dominant individual, Harrison gets the award by default.

Kansas City Chiefs center Creed Humphrey botched the snap. Patrick Mahomes recovered the fumble and threw an incomplete pass to stop the clock.


Kansas City Chiefs backup free safety Xavier Nwankpa intercepted a Kirk Cousins hail mary intended for Michael Mayer as time expired. I had a fourth roud grade on Iowa free safety Xavier Nwankpa in the 2026 NFL Draft out of Iowa, he goes undrafted, has the versatility to play either safety role, and comes up with his first career interception. Nwankpa was the third string strong safety, but he probably jumped Chris Roland-Wallace as the number four safety on Kansas City's depth chart after that game-winning play. Nwankpa has earned that much in my honest opinion. Kansas City won 30-27.


Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker III was my player of the game. Kenneth Walker III had 22 carries, 172 rushing yards, 1 reception on 1 target, 2 receiving yards, 23 touches, 174 total yards, and 2 rushing touchdowns.
