Drake Maye went 21-of-23 for 222 yards and two touchdowns, Rhamondre Stevenson ran for a season-high 88 yards, and K’Lavon Chaisson returned a Ward fumble for a touchdown as the New England Patriots beat the Tennessee Titans 31–13 at Nissan Stadium on October 19, 2025. New England held Tennessee to 39 rushing yards, forced two second-half turnovers, and won by 18 points to improve to 5–2 — their fourth straight victory and the first time the franchise had won three consecutive road games since the AFL-NFL merger.

Maye’s 135.9 passer rating on 21-of-23 made him the first quarterback in Patriots history to complete 90% or more of his passes in a game with at least 20 attempts — a mark not reached by Tom Brady in 23 seasons. He also became the third player under 24 in NFL history to post at least 200 passing yards and a passer rating above 100 in six consecutive games, joining Patrick Mahomes (seven straight in 2018) and Dan Marino (six in 1984). Adding 62 rushing yards, Maye became the first quarterback in the Super Bowl era to complete 90-plus percent of his passes, throw for 200-plus yards, and rush for 50-plus yards in a single game.

Tennessee scored all 13 of its points in the first half; New England scored 21 in the second. The 132-yard rushing advantage and 14-minute possession edge were the clearest separators in the New England Patriots vs Tennessee Titans player stats — Maye finished with a combined 284 yards on 29 touches without a turnover, and the Patriots defense held a Tennessee offense that entered the week averaging 15.5 points per game scoreless after intermission.

Cynthia D. McLaren spent a decade in sports media learning that the most important number in any game is usually the one nobody quotes in the lede. The New York native founded Match VS Player Stats in April 2026 with one rule she applies to everything this site publishes: find the stat, verify the source, and don't write a sentence until both hold up. She covers the NFL, NBA, MLB, WNBA, FIFA, cricket, and hockey. She built this outlet from scratch. She edits every piece. If something is wrong, it is on her.
