Dolphins look to keep the ball rolling

Heading into week 4 the Dolphins are approaching unfamiliar territory. They are 3-0 already have a win in Foxborough under their belt, and are fresh off a 27-0 shutout of the Saints on the road (a game in which they picked off future Hall of Famer Drew Brees 6 times). The Dolphins are currently set to play the Patriots in week 4 with a chance to take a commanding lead in the division early should they win and Buffalo falters. Miami has a tough task at hand, however, with young franchise quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo coming to town. In week 2, Jimmy G lead the Patriots on a potential game-tying drive to score a touchdown with only 7 seconds to go only to have the kicker miss what could prove to be the biggest extra point of the season. On the other side of the ball, Jay Ajayi is top 5 in the league this year in rushing and will be looking to add another 100 yard game to his caterer resume. When asked about the opportunity to sweep the Patriots in the season series, for the first time in what feels like forever, Ajayi said, "We're just happy to be in the position we're in, especially this early in the season. To get an opportunity like we have in front of us. It's time to step up." Indeed, it is time.
