New England welcomes Miami in Week 5.
The New England Patriots return to Gillette Stadium for the second time this season where they’ll look for their second victory of the season.
They will do so against Tyler Huntley and the Miami Dolphins, who are also in search of their second win on the year as they are averaging a league-worst 11.3 points per game.

Patriots picks
Oliver Thomas: Life isn’t too short to bet the under sometimes. The loss of captain David Andrews is cause for concern in the middle of an offensive line that already had several causes for concern. New England’s also-shorthanded defense will have to be the difference against Miami’s mid-month signing at quarterback. | Patriots 16, Dolphins 10
Brian Hines: New England’s offensive line will be put in a blender again and Miami’s run defense will may force Jacoby Brissett to make plays through the air. The defense should be able to contain Snoop Huntley, but must limit big explosive plays to Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. This one could get ugly and could be decided by a turnover. | Patriots 16, Dolphins 13
Bernd Buchmasser: The Patriots are not necessarily in the best shape entering Week 5, but neither are the Dolphins. What all that amounts to is a game that might be a close but not necessarily attractive affair — one that very well could see the home team come out ahead, despite currently being listed as 1.5-point underdogs at Gillette Stadium. | Patriots 17, Dolphins 10
