Drake Maye eagerly to be coached by Josh McDaniels like Tom Brady was

Patriots Quarterback Drake Maye knows the story of the new offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, which is why he is so excited to be coached by him.

McDaniels has spent a total of 18 years on Patriots’ coaching staff over two stints, and McDaniels knows Tom Brady attributes much of his success for the coaching he had from McDaniels.

“Coach McDaniels, obviously what he has done (with the patriots) and the success he has had,” said Maye at Siriusxm NFL Radio, via masslive.com. “I’m lucky to be able to get a guy to come in that has done it at a high level and learn from him coaching one of the best ever – The best ever, in my opinion, Tom. “

Maye said he is eager to sit down with McDaniels and study what he and Brady did together.

“So I have a great chance to go back-all those years of movies he has in the small database, it’s all their play-calls, all trains McDaniels’ things and what he did with Tom,” said Maye. “So it’s lucky for me to go back and study it up and be ready for this season.”

It’s not realistic to think anyone can match Brady’s results, but McDaniels may help Maye to develop into the second best quarterback in Patriot’s history.
