The Patriots played the Dolphins at home to begin the 2020 season, too. New England earned a 21-11 victory in quarterback Cam Newton's first start for the Pats.

Gillette Stadium has been a fortress for the Patriots in recent games against the Dolphins. The Pats have won 11 of their last 12 home games versus their AFC East rivals. The only loss was a Week 17 matchup in 2019 that prevented New England from earning a first-round bye in the AFC playoffs.
Depending on how training camp and the preseason shake out, we could get an all-Alabama quarterback matchup in this Week 1 game if Mac Jones starts for the Patriots and Tua Tagovailoa starts for the Dolphins.
