The Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots faced off in Week 1 for the second straight year. While last year featured Ryan Fitzpatrick under center for the Dolphins and Cam Newton at quarterback for the Patriots, this year had two former Alabama quarterbacks, Miami’s Tua Tagovailoa and New England’s Mac Jones, taking the snaps.
It was not always a pretty game, but the Dolphins were able to put it together enough, in the end, to come away with the Week 1 victory. The Dolphins and Patriots will face each other again in the season finale in Miami.
