What happened: New England beat Las Vegas 45-17 in a final. Manti Te'o credited Drake Maye's start on GMFB for the return to last year's form.

Why it matters: The comparison sets last year's Patriots as the measuring stick for this group. Sustaining that standard determines whether New England stays in control of its season.

What to watch: Watch whether Maye stacks another clean start.
