NFL Picks Week 2: Patriots vs. Dolphins
The Patriots seek to break a four-game losing streak against the Dolphins as both teams aim to rebound from Week 1 losses in a pivotal AFC East matchup, analysts say.
- On Sunday, the New England Patriots visit the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, Florida, with both teams 0-1 and New England seeking its first Miami win since 2019.
- After Week 1 struggles, New England's offensive and defensive issues are clear, as Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel's era began poorly with an out-of-sync offense and Rhamondre Stevenson's 15 yards on seven carries.
- Tight end Austin Hooper said, `I think just all 11 of us being tied in, playing next to each other together,` highlighting team communication after New England's defense allowed Geno Smith 362 yards and Jakobi Meyers and Brock Bowers combined for 200 receiving yards.
- With the Dolphins shorthanded on Sunday, right guard James Daniels and right tackle Austin Jackson are expected to miss, heightening urgency before Thursday's Buffalo game.
- Historically, the Patriots have struggled in Miami, holding a 16-43 record including last year's 34-15 loss; a preview predicted Dolphins 23, Patriots 20, highlighting early-season stakes.
