This game's spread implies an extreme passing game script for the Patriots, who are giant -7.5-point underdogs.Accounting for their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics, the leading projections forecast the New England Patriots to pass on 59.0% of their chances: the 5th-highest rate on the slate this week.This year, the feeble Dolphins pass defense has conceded a monstrous 69.7% Adjusted Completion Rate versus opposing wideouts: the 4th-worst rate in the NFL.When it comes to linebackers in covering receivers, Miami's collection of LBs has been terrible this year, grading out as the 8th-worst in football.
