McDaniels hasn\u2019t won a Super Bowl without quarterback Tom Brady or head coach Bill Belichick.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said McDaniels has done a phenomenal job coaching young talent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cJosh has got a lot of experience coaching a lot of different quarterbacks, obviously Tom (Brady),\u201d Vrabel said. \u201cHis experience being able to bring it back and make it personal for Drake (Maye) has been really good.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If McDaniels can mold Maye into a franchise quarterback, he will continue to burnish his reputation. If the Patriots beat the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX, Maye, 23, would be the youngest quarterback ever to win a Super Bowl championship and would give McDaniels a distinction no offensive coordinator has had.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sunday\u2019s game is a redemption moment for McDaniels after two short stints as a head coach. In 2010, he was let go by the Denver Broncos and in 2023 by the Las Vegas Raiders, lasting less than two seasons with both. McDaniels spent the 2024 season out of the NFL.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">McDaniels said Maye has grown a lot from the beginning of the season to now. Maye ended the regular season with 35 touchdowns, 4,394 passing yards and 450 rushing yards<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEither we make a good play or learn from the mistake, and he has been an incredible learner,\u201d McDaniels said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Patriots went 4-13 during the 2024-25 season, then ended the 2025-26 regular season14-3, Maye and McDaniels\u2019 first working together. This type of improvement comes in part from strong connections between the players and coaches.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maye said McDaniels has helped him understand the \u201cwhy\u201d of football, the little things that go such a long way while playing quarterback.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHe is great at coaching my position.\u201d Maye said, \u201cHe is one of the best in the business and just thankful everyday to work with him.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Part of Maye\u2019s success comes from McDaniels\u2019 building his confidence and leadership abilities on the field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think he is great at telling me to be myself, but also stepping out of my comfort zone a little bit,\u201d Maye said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">McDaniels said there are similarities between Brady and Maye.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe biggest thing between the two of them is they both love football,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">McDaniels and his offensive line will be under pressure Sunday. While the O-line surrendered only 48 sacks during 17 regular-season games, they have given up 15 sacks in three playoff games. This turn of events is part of why the Seahawks, who had 47 sacks during the regular season, are favored by 4.5 points<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe just got to execute,\u201d tight end Hunter Henry said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sarah Galla is a sports media specialization graduate student at Medill.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Sarah Galla Medill Reports SANTA CLARA, Calif. \u2014 Although New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels was part of six Super Bowl-winning teams during his previous two stints with the team, his return to the New England Patriots isn\u2019t about reliving the past, but building the future.
