In the oppressive South Florida humidity, the New England Patriots’ Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins was excusable — even more so after the Dolphins’ second-half comeback on the road against the Baltimore Ravens yesterday.
While the loss should’ve been expected, they didn’t put on an encouraging performance. Mac Jones threw an interception on the opening drive of the game, and his 21 total completions only resulted in 213 yards passing.
If there was ever a year to write off the Patriots it’s 2022.
