The Patriots would only add to their lead and at great cost to Miami. Barring a meltdown of epic proportions, the Patriots are a shoe-in for the division title, and they appear to be headed for a first-round bye in the AFC playoff bracket.

A win over the Patriots will be a big feather on their cap and may confirm Campbell’s place on the sidelines for good.
“We obviously don’t want him to keep doing it”, Anarumo said.
“What I find interesting in this matchup is (the Dolphins) beat the Patriots two of the last three times they’ve played, when Philbin was still the coach”, Marshall said. Jones, in particular, is taking advantage of his increased workload. It certainly won’t matter when the Patriots face middle-of-the-road teams like the Dolphins or the Washington Redskins, their next opponent a week from Sunday. “He’s dynamic in the run game and the pass game, and he’s tough to tackle”.
For live scores, go to NFL. Miami ran for 180 yards against Tennessee and 248 against Houston, and now leads the league at 5.3 yards per attempt. James White and LeGarrette Blount ran a combined five times for one yard. Without Lewis available, Tom Brady handed the ball off just five times, and barely utilized his running backs in the passing game. The last team to win with so few carries was Dallas vs. Minnesota two years ago… That decision looks wiser every day. Stephen Gostkowski chipped in with a pair of field goals (36 and 52 yards).
He finished 26 of 38 for 356 yards, recording his 69th 300-yard game – which ranks third all-time – and his 24th game with four or more touchdowns, which also ranks third. The Dolphins have totaled 82 points in those two games, ranking ninth in points per game.
That set the tone for the rest of the night. “We just made a nice play and got the touchdown”.
The game began with the Dolphins on defense and they had a chance to make a quick stop when New England faced a third-and-16 from its 26-yard line.
Rob Gronkowski, if you didn’t know, is a pretty good tight end. New England is undefeated at 6-0 for the season, as Tom Brady and the Patriots are off to a strong start to their attempted Super Bowl title defense.
Brady takes the field, and is not a werewolf tonight.
Truth be told, the Jets already defeated the Dolphins 27-14 in their first meeting this season during their Week 4 game in London.
Sign-holding fans were from all over the country with split allegiances before the game.
That didn’t turn out well.
The Patriots are 7-0 for the second time in franchise history and first time since going 16-0 in 2007.
Just like the ice sculpture.
Miami gifted a safety to the Patriots when Tannehill and center Mike Pouncey weren’t on the same page and Pouncey’s shotgun snap whizzed by Tannehill and into the end zone.
Dolphins vs Patriots tv channel schedule is on CBS. They are expected to have running back Dion Lewis back in the lineup, but he is likely not at 100 percent due to an abdominal injury.

The Patriots lead 19-0 at the half. The Dolphins didn’t show much life in the first half, but on the first drive of the second half, Tannehill found himself scrambling out of the pocket and looking for someone deep.
