Position grades from the Patriots' loss to the Bears

New England’s Patriots landed on the wrong side of prime-time football again, falling to the Chicago Bears after an opener in Seattle. A film review assigns grades across the offense: quarterback Drake Maye had a pivotal second-quarter interception tied to a misfire into the end zone, but otherwise showed the same EPA-per-play output as Chicago’s Caleb Williams (0.34). Rhamondre Stevenson was the bright spot with 93 receiving yards, including a 48-yard touchdown, though run blocking and other backs were uneven. A.J. Brown’s production was limited, while the tight end unit’s continuity kept Hunter Henry prominent early.
