Predictions For New England Patriots @ Miami Dolphins
With our Miami Dolphins hosting the New England Patriots tomorrow afternoon, I asked the two customary prediction questions this past week. Below are the questions, with some of your answers to each.
A) What will be the final score in this week’s Miami Dolphins game against the New England Patriots?
B) What other predictions do you have for the upcoming game against the Patriots? (stars of the game, etc.)
Alley Gator sees the Phins win by reverting to their old ways.
I expect a big dose of Rhamonde Stevenson running and receiving, short passes to TE’s Hooper and Henry to try to keep our offense off the field. Last week, the Rams WR’s Puka and Kupp both went over 100 yards on the Patsies, so we’ll revert to bombs away to Hill and Waddle. NE dominates time of possession, but we win on a couple of big plays. Dolphins 21, Pats 13
Alpha6 has the Dolphins more than double up on the Pats off a solid day from the defense.
Points: Dolphins 35, Cheatriots 17 There will be a pick 6 by the Dolphins’ D. There will be 4 sacks by the Dolphins’ D to go with that.
62Lou predicts that the overwhelming talent of the Phins wins the day.
Miami SHOULD WIN this game, at home against a rookie QB.
These division games are tough tho, and I expect a real fight. But Miami simply has TOO MUCH TALENT TO LOSE, unless McNerd and Tua blow it.
NO EXCUSES – FIRE THE NERD IF WE LOSE…
Miami 27 NE 20..
the spread of Miami at -7.5 is too much, we barely covered last week at the 3:19 mark in the 4th qtr. a blown coverage on the TE saved us, after needing 10 and 12 play drives all day, we got a cheap one.
DolphinsKings1 sees domination on both sides of the ball.

daytonadolfan is a day late but was shorted no dollars…
A day behind but I think it will be 31-13 Dolphins!
finfanfromsiam has the Phins winning a close one.
This is still a division game so not going to predict a blowout. We have a tendency to make rookies and nobodies into Montana. So going with 23-16. For stars of the game going with Jonnu and Achane.
David7777 is predicting the Pats to have their worst game of 2024. That’s a very low bar!
Worst game of the year for the Patriots
3 Interceptions and 2 Fumbles D-Line all over Maye this game
Dolphins 42-10
Tua2HillWaddle sees the defense keeping New England out of the endzone.
Fins 29-12. 2 fumble recoveries and 2 pics deep in NE territory. Defense only allows 4 fg’s.
EzDz73 predicts a struggle of a game resulting in a win by a TD for Miami.
This will likely be another hard fought division game. I predict the Fins for the win, 27-20
heatforlife sees Juliann Hill’s play as an indicator of the direction of the team.
when juliann hill has a good game u know things are trending in the right direction.pats gonna be a close game .think we win but not by much.30 24 fins.need fuller back healthy kohou on the bench forever.duck cb 3 cam cb4 kohou cb0.
Dolfanjoe believes that the Pats are already tanking.
Pat’s battling for the # 1 spot in the draft! Which they are hoping to trade for first-rounders for years to come. They will put on a show and see it Fins 27 Pat’s 17 . 10 – 10 at halftime worrying the local supporters !
SabanpickedCulpepper is unhappy with the new ball control offense that the Phins are running.
Defense needs to force punts, when our offense takes 8 minute drives and kicks fgs and our D can’t get off the field it’s counter productive. We’re actually decreasing our number of offense possessions
Spok507 is a fan of the new ball-control offense.
One game at a time. Ball control and clock control will bring us a win and we inch closer to getting a play-off berth. It’ll be a complete change of pace for the Fins to actually be peaking at the right time of the season and have some forward momentum carrying them into the Thanksgiving Prime Time game at Green Bay. I’m ready for it. Just concentrate on beating NE; control the LoS on both sides of the ball, stick with the ground game, take what the defense gives and force NE’s rookie QB into making mistakes.
As for the injury report, maybe Poyer should actually practice instead of ‘rest’ — seems like he could use the reps. McMorris was a full participant, so maybe he’ll see action and replace Poyer. We can only hope. Fuller is still out due to concussion, but this is week 3, so I’m hoping he’ll be off the list soon. We need Kohou back in the nickel and not covering the boundry until he remembers how to tackle. We also need Ingold back to help the run game. We’ll know more after today’s injury report.
SlayerNation1 predicts that the Phins will win but once again fails to close out a game early.
MIA 27 NE 16
Similar to last week, Miami never trails but allows
NE to hang around unnecessarily, until the 3rd quarter.
NE will extend drives with Maye’s mobility and easy pitch and catch to TEs Henry/Hooper.
Miami’s newly found ball control offense works again due to the fact they never trail. Waddle and Holland again do very little. Jonnu and Achane are the offense again,
TommyNascar believes that we should have already given up on the season.
We will win, end up 9-8, miss the playoffs and stuck in the mediocrity cycle. I would rather we lost out starting a few weeks ago, pull the tooth now, get the #1 pick and grab a new qb to start building for the future. I just don’t see championship caliber here now.
Well that’s our random selection of comments this week. There is a lot of positivity from the fans, at least here at the Phinsider overall. Well, from most of you. Time will see! Thank you to each of you who took the time to read and comment on our question of the day post. Please join us tomorrow afternoon for our live thread to follow our Miami Dolphins against the New England Patriots.
The Cleveland Browns traded for an extended right tackle, former Houston Texan Tytus Howard, at the start of free agency as they began their rebuild of the offensive line that was awful in 2025. But Howard has played every position on the offensive line except for center, so if it’s all about getting your best five on the field, which it should be, there’s a chance Howard doesn’t play at right tackle in 2026.
While doing a mock draft on Peter Schrager’s podcast, former Tennessee Titans general manager Ran Carthon had the Browns drafting Miami (FL) right tackle sixth overall. He talked about the issue with Howard, but said Mauigoa could either take over the tackle spot or be a really good guard.
Carthon said he knows that Mauigoa would be one of their best five, whether it is at guard or tackle. Some will say that a guy who may be best at guard isn’t worth the sixth overall pick, and I have to disagree. You should draft the best football players, and Francis Mauigoa is my highest-rated offensive lineman and seventh overall. It might be at guard, but I have a good feeling that Mauigoa will find a home in the NFL as a high-quality offensive lineman.
Inventory of homes and condos across the coastal Miami mainland and Miami Beach and the barrier island markets fell in the first quarter, marking the first big inventory drops since 2023.
The Corcoran Group’s first quarter reports don’t cover all of Miami-Dade County, but they offer insight into how the coastal markets, which have a higher share of luxury properties, are performing.
In Miami Beach, Sunny Isles Beach, Bal Harbour, Bay Harbor Islands, Surfside, Miami Beach, Fisher Island and Key Biscayne, single-family home inventory dropped 15 percent annually to 398 listings, and condo inventory was down 13 percent to 3,919 listings.
On Miami’s coastal mainland markets, which include Aventura, Miami Shores, Upper East Side, Edgewater, downtown Miami, Brickell, Coral Gables and Coconut Grove, inventory slipped 4 percent to 4,584 condo listings and 555 single-family listings, down 6 percent year-over-year.
Here’s a closer look at the market:
Miami Beach and the barrier islands
Single-family sales rose 13 percent year-over-year to 85 closings, the first time they have increased since the second quarter of 2024. Condo closings rose 15 percent to 693 closings, the first increase since the last quarter of 2024.
Pricing dropped, with the median price of single-family homes down 4 percent to $3.5 million and the median condo price down 9 percent to $640,000. The average price per square foot was nearly flat at $1,119.
Still, buyers set records with their purchases. Billionaire Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg paid $170 million for the waterfront mansion at 7 Indian Creek Island Road, and Starbucks billionaire Howard Schultz paid $44 million, or $7,949 per square foot, for a penthouse at the Four Seasons Residences at The Surf Club.
Coastal mainland
Sales of single-family homes on the coastal mainland rose 16 percent to 220 closings. While markets like Coral Gables experienced declines in condo and single-family home sales, Coconut Grove home sales surged — up over 100 percent for single-family homes to 47 closings and up 55 percent to 87 condo closings. Condo sales rose 13 percent to 759 closings.
The median price of single-family homes across the coastal mainland rose 11 percent to just over $2 million. The median price of condos increased slightly, up 1 percent, to $602,000.
The priciest deals in the first quarter were the $32 million trade of 12 Tahiti Beach Island Road in Coral Gables, and the $19.8 million sale of a penthouse at Vita at Grove Isle.
