4. Home vs. Dolphins

I have a lot of the same reasoning for this game as I did the last. Miami can play the Pats tough, but more often than not it comes down in Florida. New England shellacked the Dolphins in Foxboro last year, and have only last once to them at home in the Tom Brady era (2006).

The Patriots definitely struggle against this team on the road. There is no denying that. However when the Dolphins have to come up north, it usually doesn’t end well for them. Brady shreds their defense, and poor Ryan Tannehill gets absolutely smothered by Bill Belichick’s defense. I don’t think this year will be any different.
