Patriots’ Drake Maye vs. Dolphins’ Tua Tagovailoa could be the first meeting of many

Live Mint  

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Sunday's matchup between Tua Tagovailoa's Miami Dolphins and Drake Maye's New England Patriots could be the first of many. “I don’t know if I can put a finger to it,” tight end Hunter Henry said of his team's struggles against Miami. “The thing with all these new crop of young quarterbacks,” Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver said, "is that when plays break down, they have the ability to create extended plays.. This is not me saying he's Josh Allen, but you've kind of got to approach him like Josh Allen a little bit where you’re trying to funnel him certain directions and try to contain his rush ability as much as you can.” Red-zone woes The Patriots rank 29th in the league in red-zone efficiency, converting touchdowns on only 15 of 32 chances inside the 20-yard line.
