End of an era: Tyreek Hill and 3 other Players from Miami Dolphins departed from the team after…..

Because it’s always about the quarterback, much has been made, and continues to be made, about Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa and his record against the New England Patriots.

It makes sense in a way because 6-0 certainly is eye-catching, but it also doesn’t tell the whole story.

And it very well might be that the days of the Dolphins dominating New England to this extent won’t last much longer because the Patriots finally might have found the answer to their biggest problem of the past five years: a replacement for Tom Brady.

While it’s way too early to anoint rookie third overall pick Drake Maye as a future star, it’s undeniable he has looked the part since the Patriots decided to insert him into their starting lineup the week after the Dolphins defeated them at Gillette Stadium.

Check out what Boston Globe reporter Ben Volin had to say about Maye during his appearance on the All Dolphins Podcast earlier this week.

Maye will get his first start against the Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday, and while we’re by no means predicting a big outing for him, it’s likely to be a more challenging test for the defense than facing Jacoby Brissett like they did in Week 5.

This also could be the start of a cool QB rivalry within the AFC East.

“Yeah, that’s just how this league is,” Tagovailoa said.

“It’s how it goes. I wish him the best in his career that he’s just starting.

Tough league, but with the right mind-set, with the right people around him surrounding him, I think he’ll be doing good.”
