Tom Brady and the New England Patriots are flying south this weekend to take on the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium. The Patriots are 1-5 in their past six visits to Miami; Brady himself is actually just 7-10 all-time against the Dolphins on the road. The Pats will hope to turn these stats around come Sunday afternoon.
Both teams enter this critical AFC East matchup trending in very different directions.
New England is coming off a 33-3 drubbing of the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football. The Patriots enjoyed a crisp, relatively drama-free, dominant performance against their sometime conference rival, leading many pundits to suggest that Bill Belichick’s defending champions are the Super Bowl 54 favorites already.
