Patriots Game Today: Patriots vs Dolphins injury report, schedule, live stream, TV channel and betting preview for Week 1 NFL game
By Mike Luciano
The New England Patriots will finally unveil Mac Jones to the rest of the football world in a regular-season game, as their Week 1 matchup will come against Tua Tagovailoa and a Miami Dolphins team. that has an eye on the postseason after narrowly missing out during a breakout 2020 season.
The Patriots will throw Jones right into the fire in this game, as the Dolphins sport one of the best young defenses in the game and are coached by a former Patriots defensive assistant in Brian Flores.
Even with that, Bill Belichick will throw one of the best defenses in the NFL at Tagovailoa in this game. New England also has the benefit of a plethora of new weapons thanks to an offseason spending spree. Jonnu Smith, Hunter Henry, and Kendrick Bourne are ready to rock against a stacked Dolphins defensive backfield.
Will the Dolphins be able to rough up Jones and come away with a win? Or will Belichick and the Patriots stop Tagovailoa and Miami in their tracks and get an early victory in what should be a competitive AFC East?
