The Patriots took down the Pittsburgh Steelers 20-3 in week 2 to pick up their first win of the season in New England.

On this episode, BSJ’s Greg Bedard is joined by Nick Cattles as the recap the Patriots week 2 victory over the Steelers. They discuss the biggest storyline from the game which was once again a tough day for 3rd year QB Drake Maye. The two react to Maye’s disappointing performance and Greg even mentions that he rated this the worst game of Drake Maye’s career but when he rewatching the game he didn’t think it was as bad as he thought at first and admits he might have been a little harsh on criticizing Drake on Sunday. While not all has been great they discuss how Maye can improve this season.

The Patriots defense was a major factor in the win on Sunday and Greg still isn’t sure what to make of this Patriots defense after they dominated an old Aaron Rodgers in this game.

They also discuss the Patriots RB room and with Rhamondre Stevenson’s early fumble and TreVeyon Henderson being inserted into the lineup. They discuss the game for the duo and take a look at who will actually control the backfield entering week 3.

Finally they wrap up giving their 3 up and 3 downs from the week 2 victory!

The New England Patriots picked up their first win of the 2026 season Sunday afternoon, defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers 20-3 at Gillette Stadium. After a disappointing Week 1 loss, New England responded with a dominant defensive performance that kept Pittsburgh’s offense in check throughout the afternoon.

The Patriots got on the board first when TreVeyon Henderson broke loose for a 39-yard touchdown run in his season debut, giving New England an early 7-0 lead. Andy Borregales added two field goals, while Pittsburgh managed only one score — a 56-yard Chris Boswell field goal just before halftime.

Quarterback Drake Maye had an up-and-down afternoon, completing 14 of 22 passes for 208 yards and throwing one interception
