Sunday Night Football should be a good one this week with the New England Patriots and Baltimore Ravens, each desperate for wins.

The Patriots need to extend their lead at the top of the division, which means all eyes will be on Drake Maye, who is having a standout season in New England.

I’ve taken a long look at the Drake Maye odds to find the very best ways for you to get involved with the Patriots’ quarterback on Sunday Night Football.

Drake Maye prop pick

Drake Maye best bet: Over 239.5 passing yards (-114 at FanDuel)

Drake Maye is firmly in the MVP conversation this year, and his stock will only continue to rise if the second-year quarterback manages to get his team the division title.

The past couple of weeks haven’t been among Maye’s best, but he’s still been putting up big numbers.

The Baltimore Ravens have given up 233.4 passing yards per game, the seventh most in the NFL this season, and have looked strong against the run, having not allowed an opposing RB to have a 100-yard rushing game against them in their past 11 games. 

That means we really should see the New England Patriots lean on Maye and his arm to get the job done here and continue their march towards the postseason.

Maye has averaged an impressive 254.7 passing yards per game across the season and has broken his line for Sunday Night Football, of 239.5, in 10 of 14 games.

We’ve also seen Maye break that 240-yard mark in six of his past seven and should do so in Week 16 against the Ravens.
