BOSTON -- The New England Patriots were completely dominated by the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, losing 34-15 at Hard Rock Stadium to fall to 3-9 on the season. Jerod Mayo's team had no answers for Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami offense in Week 12, while Drake Maye and the New England offense never really got going thanks to a plethora of penalties by the Patriots' offensive line.
One week after Matthew Stafford ripped the Patriots' defense to shreds, Tagovailoa picked them apart for 317 yards and four touchdowns off 29 of 40 passing. Jaylen Waddle was a beast with eight receptions for 144 yards and a touchdown, while former Patriots tight end Jonnu Smith had nine receptions for 87 yards and a touchdown.
