9 takeaways from patriots 33 27 wild win over dolphins msn

The New England Patriots and Miami Dolphins battled back and forth late into the fourth quarter on Sunday, with both offenses often looking unstoppable and both special teams units coming through with key fourth-quarter... New England got the final defensive stop, preserving a 33-27 win for the Patriots, their first on the season and their first under head coach Mike Vrabel. Drake Maye went 19-of-23 for 230 yards with two touchdowns, while Tua Tagovailoa went 26-of-33 for 315 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. It was a thrilling victory for New England and one that came down to the very end. Here's how the win unfolded! The Patriots came out with a balanced attack on their first drive after receiving the opening kickoff, but it wasn't easy, as a first-down sack helped force a third-and-long that the offense couldn't quite...

Josh McDaniels stayed aggressive, picking up a conversion on 4th-and-3 with a well-designed play to Stefon Diggs. From there, Drake Maye hit Austin Hooper for 22 yards and then finished the drive off with an eight-yard touchdown throw to Mack Hollins. It was a 10-play 68-yard scoring drive and just the kind of start New England was hoping for while playing on the road against a tough divisional rival. Unfortunately, Andy Borregales missed the extra point, holding the lead to 6-0 early in the first quarter. Miami Gardens, FL – The monkey is officially off the Patriots back after a massive 33-27 victory over the Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday. By now, you all know the trends.

A five-game losing streak in Miami. 0-7 vs. Tua. 46-straight games scoring under 30 points (ends the longest active streak in the NFL): all of it came to an end on Sunday in the first win of the head coach Mike Vrabel era... Along with the team finally slaying their Michael Myers (Tagovailoa), second-year QB Drake Maye has a signature win under his belt in a tough place to play for the boys in the North coming... Maye was magnificent, accumulating nearly as many touchdowns (3) as incompletions (4) against the Dolphins defense.

He has a signature moment, a 55-yard completion to RB Rhamondre Stevenson followed by a six-yard touchdown scamper, and a complete game without any turnover-worthy plays to speak of on Sunday. As much as we're all flying high after the big win, the Patriots still have work to do to clean things up before Week 3. Although all that matters is the scoreboard, Tua still had plenty of success with 315 passing yards and two touchdowns. New England was also called for 12 penalties, including several pre-snap penalties offensively, and special teams was once again a mixed bag. Later this week, we'll discuss the corrections. We also know that Miami has its own issues right now.

Still, what stood out to Vrabel about the win was that the Patriots aren't frontrunners, with a 90-yard kickoff return touchdown leading to a fourth-quarter comeback victory in a game that featured five lead... "I'm just excited for these guys. I'm really excited that they could fight and compete, come on the road and be in a game and get off to a good start, not be frontrunners," Vrabel said after the win. "We're not frontrunners, and that's big in this league." MIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins entered Sunday’s home opener against New England badly needing a victory. They didn’t get it, losing, 33-27, to fall to 0-2 heading into Thursday’s game at Buffalo.

Fans were angry during the past week, angry enough to finance an airplane that towed a banner an anti-general manager and anti-coach banner requesting the firing of general manager Chris Grier and coach Mike... Fans also booed the Dolphins lightly early in the game. All was forgiven by the third quarter when the Dolphins took a 17-15 lead that they turned into a 20-15 advantage. But that happiness didn’t last long, and perhaps the same could be said for McDaniel’s future with the Dolphins. We’ll see. This week will be ugly; here are some of the top takeaways from Sunday’s game:

Fans will be especially angry this week and will likely call for firings of Grier and McDaniel. Again. The only break for the Dolphins is it’s a short week. But if they lose Thursday at the Bills they get a long week of ugliness before hosting the New York Jets on Sept. 29 on Monday Night Football.
