They walked onto the field with plenty of hype. In turn they went home without their manhood. Bill Belichick’s Patriots emasculated the Dolphins 38-7. Things have never been the same since.

Miami Dolphins

Quarterback Ryan Tannehill threw for 137 yards and three touchdowns in the win. It was the fourth consecutive game that the Dolphins stayed under the total.

Stats to Consider
New England has been in the black as a road chalk. To exemplify the Patriots have paid in 14 of their last 20 laying points away from home. And nine of their last 12 in that role have gone over the total. Counter to that is Miami’s mark of just three covers in their last eight as a home pup.
Team vs Team
New England has dominated this head to head series with the Dolphins. To illuminate the Patriots have covered the spread in six of their last eight games with Miami. And four of the last seven between these teams have gone under the total. However, at Miami the Fish have had the better board value. In fact, the Patriots have gotten the cash in just one of their last six visits to Miami. Four of the last six meetings between these teams at Hard Rock Stadium have gone under the total.
Matchup to Watch
New England has the bet on NFL matchup edge with quarterback Tom Brady. Most of all the Patriots are in much better form.
