Live from Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers visit Drake Maye and the New England Patriots.
The Chargers (5-0) and Patriots (4-0) are two of only four NFL clubs to go undefeated in primetime this season (minimum four games).
The Patriots (14-3) clinched their first playoff berth since 2021 and their first AFC East title since 2019. New England's 14 victories are the franchise's most since the 2016 season, which was capped by a win in Super Bowl LI. Maye, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft and a 2026 Pro Bowl selection, is among the MVP frontrunners after leading the NFL in completion percentage (72.0) and passer rating (113.5). He also passed for 4,394 yards and 31 touchdowns.
Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel, a former linebacker in New England, guided a 10-win improvement in his first season leading the team.
The Chargers defense is led by Pro Bowl safety Derwin James and outside linebacker Tuli Tuipulotu and ranked fourth in the NFL in red zone defense and fifth in total defense.
Los Angeles and New England meet for the 47th time (including four postseason games) on Sunday night, with the Patriots holding a 27-17-2 advantage in the series. The teams last met in the postseason following the 2018 season, as Tom Brady passed for 343 yards to lead the Patriots to a 41-28 AFC Divisional Playoff win over Philip Rivers and the Chargers. That victory stands as the last home playoff win for New England.
