While he statistically once again failed to perform at his 2025 Pro Bowl level — 14-of-22 (63.3%), 208 yards, 1 INT — the third-year quarterback still had some good moments despite being under pressure on a whopping 51.9% of dropbacks

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Maye showed improvement despite subpar stats and heavy pressure.

Despite statistically underperforming his 2025 Pro Bowl level (14-of-22, 63.3%, 208 yards, 1 INT) and facing pressure on 51.9% of dropbacks with heavy blitz and man coverage from Pittsburgh, Maye showed improvement from his disastrous season opener by minimizing unnecessary risk, extending plays, keeping eyes downfield, and delivering explosive throws; this was a step in the right direction despite a rough back-foot interception in the third quarter.
