CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The New England Patriots and the Miami Dolphins play at 8:30 tonight on ESPN in Monday Night Football. It's the second time the two teams have played in three weeks, the Patriots winning, 35-17, on Nov. 26.
A victory by the Patriots will put them in better position to win their ninth straight AFC East title.
The Patriots will play without tight end Rob Gronkowski who was suspended a game for last week's late hit to the head of a Buffalo Bills' Tre-Davious White, who was face down on the sideline following an intercepted pass.
