“I think they’re catching the Patriots at a good time,” NFL Network’s Gregg Rosenthal said on the Big O Show, “because the Patriots are coming off an emotional game in Indianapolis, a mental log for them. I know it’s not the greatest Colts team. You come back and you play a Jets team that really pushed them to the brink and could have won that game… they had to play their A game there. They’re still on their third tackle right now.
“It’s in a short week, an emotional game. I’m not saying the Dolphins should be expected to win but the Dolphins’ defensive line right now is rearing to go and the Patriots have gotten by with this offensive line and they’ve survived but they haven’t faced a great pass rush team.
