The recent history of the Dolphins and Patriots facing off in New England has been about as one-sided as it gets as the Patriots have seven straight SU home wins over the Fins and since 1997 Miami has only been able to muster four SU wins on the road vs the Pats. Bill Belichick and company have been rewarding spread bettors in this situation too, as they have four straight home ATS wins against the Dolphins.
- The Patriots are 7-0 SU in their last 7 games after winning as an underdog.
- The Patriots are 10-0 SU and 8-1-1 ATS in their last 10 after losing the previous game in a matchup.
- The Dolphins are 4-7-1 ATS in their last 12 games when playing New England.
The Patriots are coming off a massive Week 1 win vs the Cardinals where they were as high as +9.5 underdogs at some sportsbooks, while Miami narrowly missed out on what would have been their biggest win in years when they lost 12-10 vs the Seahawks in Seattle. The Dolphins did cover the spread in the game, which isn’t something they did often on the road in 2015 as they closed the year out with just one cover in their last five road games.
Despite the one-sided nature of this matchup, Miami has won three of the last five SU and ATS vs the Patriots with all of those wins happening in Florida. Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill was mediocre in two games vs the Patriots last season, posting two touchdowns and two interceptions and an 86.9 QB rating.
