It was just two weeks ago that the Patriots, coming off a much-publicized primetime loss to the Colts, punished the New York Jets for the frustration and negative publicity that the loss in Indianapolis had borne. Though the circumstances are a bit different this time, since New England was soundly beaten by the Saints, the Patriots' mentality should be the same as it was when the Jets came calling. New England will come out desperate to assert its place among the AFC elite, and to prove that the New Orleans loss was an aberration against an opponent that the Pats simply matched up with poorly. The Dolphins aren't a bad club, but their loss in Buffalo last week proved that there's a formula for even the league's worst teams to beat them, and New England will provide the knockout punch to Miami's postseason hopes with a road win on Sunday.
