Bailey Zappe proved more than capable of leading the Patriots’ offense. What does that mean both short and long-term? GoPats | ForeverNE
Having Zappe play—let alone start—was not a situation anyone, especially the Patriots, envisioned happening ahead of this season with Jones entering his second year as a pro. But given the rookie’s reliable and confident play in his first two games in action, New England has to be happy to have him.
Things were clicking all day for Zappe and the Patriots. Their defense was fantastic, holding the Detroit Lions, who entered the day as the NFL’s highest-scoring offense, to zero points. The offensive line, who Zappe called the MVP of the day after the game, didn’t allow a single pressure in the game. Running backran for 161 yards on 25 carries.
Zappe finished the game with just four incompletions—a 17-for-21 line—and spread the ball around with targets to seven different receivers and receptions by six of them. He threw for 188 yards in all and connected with receiver for his second career touchdown pass on a well-placed throw over the outstretched hands of a Lions corner.
