The turnover problem reared its ugly head for the Patriots again in the fourth quarter just as Maye and the offense looked to be getting a drive started. Instead, Maye was strip-sacked from behind and the Titans pounced on the loose ball, recovering it at the New England 26-yard line. It was Maye’s second turnover of the day and it came with time on the clock dwindling away. Tennessee’s disruptive front seven did a good job making life difficult for Maye all game long with a consistent pressure rate.
The Patriots defense couldn’t come up with a stop, and the Titans scored in just five plays to take a 17-10 lead with just over four minutes to go in the game.
Maye and the Patriots offense were unable to muster a response on their next fourth-quarter possession, punting the ball back to the Titans. But the Patriots defense would do enough to give them one more chance, a chance they’d take advantage of.
Their last shot came with just under two minutes left and no timeouts and Maye delivered an eye-opening performance, hitting three passing plays to get inside the Tennessee red zone. The Pats offense converted a 4th-and 2 from the Titans 15-yard line, getting a new set of downs from the Titans five-yard line with just eight seconds left.
First, Maye spiked the ball, then missed Kayshon Boutte on second down. It all came down to a final third down and Maye, scrambling around and buying more and more time, finally let go of a pass to the end zone as he was hit and… it was complete to Stevenson for a touchdown!
It was one of the most exciting moments of Maye’s fledgling career as Joey Slye’s extra point tied the game and sent it to overtime.
The Titans would score a field goal on their opening possession of overtime, a 13-play, 72-yard drive that the Patriots defense stopped just in time at their own six-yard line. Those three points would be enough, as Maye would launch a final interception that would end the game in a Patriots defeat.
