Readthrough summary

The Patriots are back on the road this week for an AFC East game at Miami against a Dolphins team fresh off its first win of the season.

Miami is 1-5, but it has faced a brutal early slate, including four teams that didn't lose through the first four weeks: Las Vegas, San Francisco, Kansas City and Minnesota. A tough road win over the Jets last week suggested new head coach Jeff Hafley's program is taking root.

Patriots.com also reminds fans that Miami has been a hard place to win regardless of records: an 18-game Dolphins home win streak over New England across the 1970s and '80s, a 29-28 loss in 2004 by a 12-1 Patriots team to a 2-11 Miami team, the 2018 "Miami Miracle," and late-season losses in 2013, 2015 and 2019 that changed New England's playoff path.
