Patriots vs. Saints storylines

The Patriots haven't won three straight games since the 2022 season. Drake Maye and Stefon Diggs will look to build off their spectacular Week 5, when Diggs broke out for 10 receptions and 146 yards against Buffalo.

If he catches at least 10 passes again this weekend, Diggs will become the first Patriots player with back-to-back games with at least 10 receptions since Julian Edelman did so in 2015. If he has another 100-yard game -- which would be his third straight -- Diggs will become the first Patriots player to hit the century mark in three straight weeks since Wes Welker had four straight 100-yard games during the 2012 season.

Maye is also looking to have a turnover-free game for a third straight weekend. Here's everything we're watching for when the Pats and the Saints kick off Sunday afternoon.

Patriots star cornerback Christian Gonzalez is active and good to go for Sunday's game after he was listed as questionable with a hamstring injury on Friday. Defensive tackle Milton Williams is also active, after he was added to the injury report Sunday morning with an illnes.

Undrafted rookie receiver Efton Chism III is also active for the first time for the Patriots. He'll make his NFL debut on Sunday, and could find himself returning some kicks in place of Antonio Gibson, who was placed on IR on Friday.
