What happened

New England escaped Miami 24-19, though the first half tried hard to prevent it: E.Chism coughed one up at the NE 19, and A.Borregales sent a 40-yarder wide right. D.Maye repaired the damage after the break with a 2-yard rushing score and a 48-yard strike to D.Douglas, mostly without his top pass catchers. Then M.Willis found K.Coleman for 35 yards with 2:10 left, a reminder that this team never lets anyone exhale.

What fans said

  • “Top four pass catchers out for the majority of this game and Maye still balled out in that second half. Props.”
