Another defeat for Bill Belichick’s New England Patriots, this time against a team that is supposed to be an easy rival for them, the Miami Dolphins by a score of 17-24. Week 1 and 2 games were at home.

Now that the New England Patriots are mired in a losing streak things could get worse since in Week 3 they play on the road against the underdog New York Jets who used to be another of those ‘easy’ teams for the Patriots during the Belichick-Brady was.

The Patriots’ offensive line is performing relatively well, the root of the problem appears to be the defensive line that cannot keep score during games.
