I know Patrick only 29 and I'm going to get flamed for this...
He has a life outside of football and has had several injuries to deal with. He also has been sacked more times this season than any other. His freewheeling style of play is what made him so exceptional and now he's been reduced to a system quarterback.
Since everyone wants to compare him to Tom Brady, go ahead and compare how their family lives differ. Patrick has a wife, three small children and is involved in multiple local activities. He's not a machine and the hits add up. He was absolutely brutalized in the SB and the NFL allowed to stop the narrative that he gets special treatment.
I believe Patrick will recover however as others have said, the 2019 offense will probably never return and that makes me sad. He has taken a step backwards due to the beatings he has taken.
