Despite the glaring difference in record between these two teams, CBS Sports’ NFL experts are split on who will come out on top in this matchup. Five of our eight experts are picking the Patriots to win, while three are taking the Dolphins.

Here’s a closer look at what our experts are saying about this game:

Pete Prisco: Dolphins 23, Patriots 20
“The Patriots offense struggles again and Tom Brady can’t rally them late. Miami stuns New England in Foxboro.”

Jason La Canfora: Patriots 27, Dolphins 17
“The Pats keep winning ugly and don’t seem to be playing their best football just yet. They’ll probably have to again here, as the Fins always give them fits.”

Will Brinson: Dolphins 24, Patriots 21
“Sometimes you just have to ride the hot hand and Adam Gase has his team playing hard. Jay Cutler actually looks competent! The Pats might be without Gronk (concussion) and that would be a big deal.”

Bleacher Report

All six of Bleacher Report’s experts are predicting a Patriots victory over the Dolphins on Sunday.

Patriots 30, Dolphins 14

“The Patriots are still the better team, and they should win this game comfortably,” writes NFC West Lead Writer Tyler Dunne. “But given all that’s happened this season, New England can’t afford to take anything for granted—especially against an energized Miami squad that will be playing its first game under interim head coach Dan Campbell.”

What the Fans are Saying

The fans are going wild over the upcoming Patriots-Dolphins game. Some NFL experts are even saying that this could be the game of the year. Let’s take a look at what some of the fans are saying about the big game.

Patriots Fans

The New England Patriots have been one of the most dominant teams in the NFL over the past two decades. They have won six Super Bowls during that time, and they are currently the defending champions. The Patriots have a strong following, and their fans are some of the most passionate in all of sports.

The Patriots are set to take on the Miami Dolphins this Sunday, and fans are expecting another big win. The Pats are heavy favorites to win the game, and most experts are predicting that they will do so easily. However, there are always surprises in sports, so anything can happen on game day. Either way, it should be an exciting matchup between two division rivals.

Dolphins Fans

The Miami Dolphins have begun the season with a disappointing 0-2 record, but fans are still optimistic that the team can turn things around.

Some fans are pointing to the team’s Week 3 matchup against the New England Patriots as a potential turning point in the season. The Patriots are also 0-2 and are coming off a loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

“I think this is a must-win game for both teams,” one Dolphins fan said. “If the Patriots lose, they’re basically out of the playoff race. And if we lose, our chances of making the playoffs are very slim.”

Another fan said he is confident that the Dolphins can win if they can contain Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.

“Brady is going to get his yards and his touchdowns, but I think our defense can make some big plays and get us a win,” he said.
