Stefon Diggs played a vital role in the New England Patriots' dramatic victory over the Baltimore Ravens, and Drake Maye underlined how important the receiver is to the team

Stefon Diggs sent a strange message to the New England Patriots after losing to his former team the Buffalo Bills in Week 15.

Still, behind an offensive line held together with duct tape, Maye looked poised leading a game-winning fourth-quarter drive against a team with playoff aspirations. He was 6-for-8 for 69 yards on the last drive. Stefon Diggs, who’d been quiet since Thanksgiving, played like a No. 1 receiver again with nine catches for 138 yards.
