In a shock start at the Hard Rock Stadium, the Pats romped to an early lead after a Tua pass was intercepted by Patriots? Safety Kyle Dugger, which enabled a series of plays for Bill Belichick?s team. The momentum allowed Mac Jones to complete a 24-yard pass to Kendrick Bourne in the end zone for a touchdown.

Miami Dolphins are already roaring loudly!

On a night when Miami welcomed back cornerback

Jalen Ramsey, it didn?t take too long for the No. 1 Red Zone team of the NFL to fight back. In the last minute of the first quarter, Tua and Tyreek Hill combined for a 42-yard pass to complete a touchdown. With his eighth Touchdown, Hill surpassed his last season aggregate of 7 TDs inside just 8 weeks this season. Late in the second quarter, the Dolphins built pressure on the Pats with a 14-play drive that resulted in Cedrick Wilson Jr. completing a touchdown following a short pass by Tagovailoa.

This time, a field goal by Jason Sanders from 30 yards made it 17-7. Mac Jones, on the other hand, has been kept relatively quiet as the Pats continue to face offense-related problems.

The Dolphins entered Week 8 after scoring their season-lowest points (17) against the Eagles last week. The Pats, meanwhile, rekindled hopes after a last-minute touchdown for a narrow win over the Bills.
