Preview: New England Patriots Need To Finish Strong vs Miami Dolphins

Miami Dolphins face pivotal offseason questions as they prepare for a cold-weather showdown with the New England Patriots in Foxborough. Will Mike McDaniel’s coaching tenure end after a second consecutive 8-9 finish, and can new quarterback Quinn Ewers offer the spark Miami’s offense needs? Meanwhile, the Patriots must navigate major off-field distractions involving Stefon Diggs and Christian Barmore while keeping eyes on Drake Maye’s MVP race and health concerns in their lineup.

Nick Cattles and Kyle Crabbs break down must-watch matchups, including Miami’s interior offensive line vs. New England’s defensive front, Jack Jones’ high-risk coverage, and Bradley Chubb’s pursuit of key incentives. Key discussion points feature tactical adjustments, pre-snap discipline, perimeter tackling, and how incentives and distractions could sway outcomes at Gillette Stadium. Which team will finish strong and set the tone for the offseason drama?
