"They're playing great. They've got a lot of great players. You know, every time we've played these guys, they've been a challenge. So we started off last year and lost to them in the first game of the year. We battled back against them in the second half of last year," said Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in his press conference this week.

The Dolphins started the season 1-3 and fired coach Joe Philbin after a loss to the Jets. Miami went to interim coach Dan Campbell and have since won two straight games and are playing much more inspired football.
"I would just say that the guys have played for one another, which is the most important thing when you're talking about team and teamwork and that's kind of the way everything has been. It's competing against one another, competing for one another and then having it spill out into Sunday obviously," said Campbell.
A win for the Dolphins would get them to 4-3 and back in the AFC East and AFC playoff race. However, Miami hasn't won a game in New England since 2008.
