Patriots to face off against the Dolphins on Sunday
FOXBORO, Mass. (WPRI) — Two teams in dire need of a win will square off this Sunday in Foxboro.
The New England Patriots will host the division rival Miami Dolphins at 1 p.m. on FOX.
After a win in Week 1, the Patriots have dropped three straight games. They're not in last place in the AFC East, however. That distinction goes to the 1-3 Dolphins, who have also lost their last three games.

Getting the offense going will be a priority for both teams. Heading into Week 5, New England and Miami own the two lowest-scoring offenses in the league, at 52 and 45 total points, respectively.
Tyler Huntley will be getting his second start for the Dolphins in place of the injured Tua Tagovailoa, while Jacoby Brissett will once again be under center for the Patriots.
