’Phins no match for Pats

Will the Miami Dolphins finally provide some competition for the New England Patriots? They opted to practice outside all week, braving the chilly weather, rather than stay indoors and potentially try to raise the heat to mimic the conditions down in Miami that the Patriots will face Sunday afternoon. But this week, Pats coach Bill Belichick said they couldn’t really get that warm in the team’s indoor facility. “We’re out on grass fields in 35-degree weather,” Patriots quarterback Tom Brady said earlier this week. “I don’t think it’s going to be 35 down there on Sunday. But we’ll just try to be a little bit mentally tough.
