The caveat to every Week 1 story is always that it's early. Things can and do change in the NFL. A year ago at this time the Green Bay Packers were embarrassed by the New Orleans Saints and the Buffalo Bills lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers, and by the end of the season the Packers and Bills firmly righted the ship.

After gaining 53 yards on their first seven plays, the Patriots were just outside the red zone when Jones floated a jump ball for DeVante Parker in the right third of the end zone, but the ball was tipped by Pro Bowl cornerback Xavien Howard and intercepted by teammate Jevon Holland.

On the Patriots' second possession, they had three negative yardage plays. Rhamondre Stevenson was dropped for a 3-yard loss on a quick screen; there was a complete coverage breakdown on first down from the Dolphins' 40 and Emmanuel Ogbah got to Jones untouched, dropping him for a 7-yard sack; and on the following play Ty Montgomery lost 2 yards on a carry.
