In the regular season, New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye racked up 4,394 passing yards and 31 touchdowns while averaging 8.9 yards-per-completion. But in the AFC Championship Game and what became horrendous conditions in Denver, it was his legs that made all the difference in the Patriots 10-7 win.
The second-year QB scored the Pats only touchdown of the day with a six-yard rush in the second quarter, and in the fourth quarter he iced the game by beating Jonah Elliss to the first-down marker and allowing New England to kneel out the final two minutes between them and Super Bowl LX. Despite going just 10-for-21 with 86 yards through the air, Maye finished with 65 rushing yards on 10 carries to go with his crucial touchdown.
Which brings us to today’s quiz. With the win, Maye became the second-youngest starting quarterback in NFL history to win a conference championship game. With that being said, how many of the quarterbacks to get their team to the Super Bowl before turning 27 can you name in five minutes?
Good luck!
