Drake Maye is set to battle the NFL's top-ranked pass defense in the Falcons. FOXBOROUGH — The Patriots will look to make it six wins in a row on Sunday afternoon. The 6-2 Patriots will host the Atlanta Falcons (3-4) at Gillette Stadium, with kickoff set for 1 p.m. You can watch the game on CBS, as well as listen on 98.5 The Sports Hub. The Falcons might have a few impressive wins this season — including a primetime win over the Bills — but they have lost their last two games by a combined score of 54-20. Even though Atlanta’s offense hasn’t put it all together so far this season despite having some top playmakers like Bijan Robinson and Drake London, they do boast the top-ranked pass defense in the league — allowing an average of 149.1 passing yards per game. Drake Maye might have his hands full against that Atlanta defense, while Rhamondre Stevenson has already been ruled out of Sunday’s game with a toe injury. As the Patriots try to make it six-straight victories, follow along here for live updates from Sunday’s game in Foxborough, and check back once the game wraps for some early observations. 11:11: Mack Hollins understood the assignment. 11:00: Greetings from Gillette Stadium!
