Live updates: Patriots defeated by Dolphins in critical AFC showdown

The New England Patriots host the Miami Dolphins in a critical AFC East showdown at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro on Sunday afternoon.

Both the Patriots and Dolphins are 1-3, but sit just one game back of the New York Jets (2-2) and two games behind the division-leading Buffalo Bills (3-1).

This could have been a matchup of exciting young quarterbacks, with Tua Tagovailoa and Drake Maye taking the field. Instead, it will be Tyler Huntley and Jacoby Brissett .

Miami has won six of the past seven meetings with New England.

Kickoff is slated for 1 p.m. and the game can be seen live on Boston 25 News. Chris Meyers (play-by-play), Mark Sanchez (color analyst), and Laura Rutledge (sideline) will be on the call.
