NFL Power Rankings Week 6: How experts view Patriots after 1-4 start originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
The New England Patriots lost what was potentially the most winnable game left on their 2024 NFL schedule last Sunday at Gillette Stadium.
The Patriots suffered a 15-10 defeat to a Miami Dolphins team with a struggling offense and without star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who's on injured reserve due to a concussion. New England's offense struggled mightily again, and the only touchdown scored came on a short field after a Christian Gonzalez interception.
