Twitter reacts to Drake Maye's meltdown, Patriots' blowout loss

The New England Patriots got blown out at Gillette Stadium by a 45-27 margin when facing the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.

It was an ugly performance for the Patriots, who gave up double-digit points in every quarter but the fourth. That includes a whopping 18 points in the third quarter.

Patriots quarterback Drake Maye didn't have his best game, going 21-of-38 passing for 299 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions. The lone bright spot for the team was wide receiver DeMario Douglas, who hauled in five receptions for 102 yards on the day.

And then there's the defense.

The Patriots' unit came into the game ranked top 10 in the league and got lit up by quarterback Jordan Love and the Packers' offense. Packers wide receiver Christian Watson had seven receptions for 171 yards and one touchdown, while Matthew Golden hauled in 10 receptions for 164 yards and one touchdown.

Many of those receptions came with Patriots star cornerback Christian Gonzalez in coverage. It was one of the worst performances we've seen by the unit at home in quite some time. Overall, the Patriots allowed 478 total yards of offense to the Packers.

Here's how social media reacted to the loss:
