The Miami Dolphins look for a fourth straight victory on a trip to play the New England Patriots in Week 4 of the NFL regular season. The Dolphins defeated the Oakland Raiders 28-20 on Sunday as receiver Albert Wilson tossed a 52-yard TD pass and then scored on a 74-yards pass completion sealing the Dolphins win. Ryan Tannehill threw for 289 yards and three touchdowns in the win.

New England lost its second straight on Sunday falling to the Detroit Lions 26-10 on Sunday Night Football. The Patriots Tom Brady threw for just 113 yards with one touchdown and one interception in the loss. Newly acquire Josh Gordon did not play due to a hamstring issue delaying his debut with the Patriots. The Patriots now find themselves in an odd situation of being on the outside looking in, in the AFC East. Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill has thrown for 687 yards, seven touchdowns and two interceptions. The leading rusher for Miami is Kenyan Drake with 104 yards, while Frank Gore is second with 98 yards. The Dolphins leading receiver is Kenny Stills with 9 receptions for 184 yards and three touchdowns. Miami’s leading tackler is Kiko Alonso with 34, while William Hayes is the sacks leader with 2.0.

Tom Brady has thrown for 644 yards, six touchdowns and two interceptions. The Patriots leading rusher is Rex Burkhead with 86 yards. New England’s leading receiver is Rob Gronkowski with 13 receptions for 189 yards and one touchdown. James White has 14 receptions for 125 yards and two touchdowns. The leading tackler for the Pats is Stephon Gilmore with 17, while Deatrich Wise Jr. leads in sacks with 2.5.

The Patriots defense could not stop the run on Sunday against Detroit but should have two important defensive players in Trey Flowers and Patrick Chung back after missing the Lions game. New England has covered the number in five straight home games versus the Dolphins, while the Dolphins have failed to cover in 5 of the 6 on the road. The Patriots will win and cover and quiet speculation of a collapse of the destiny. Final Score Prediction, New Patriots win and cover ATS 27-14.
