Josh McDaniels outlines the challenges the Dolphins defense presents for the Patriots

On Sunday, the New England Patriots will play their first divisional rematch of the season when they square off against the Miami Dolphins. On paper, the Patriots are the clear favorites entering the contest: New England has a superior record, played some very good football recently, and on top of all that already defeated the Dolphins 38-7 in week four. That being said, the upcoming game could still prove to be a difficult one.

The game takes place in South Florida, after all, where the Patriots under head coach Bill Belichick are just 8-10.
