Dolphins 31-13 over the Jaguars: It was all “Fitzmagic” as QB Ryan Fitzpatrick had 2 passing TD and one rushing TD. RB Jordan Howard added another rushing TD and the defense picked off QB Gardner Minshew once and forced him to fumble once. The Jaguars missed an extra point, had three turnovers on down which doesn’t help matters when you’re down early, and if it wasn’t for RB James Robinson’s 2 rushing TD it would have been uglier.

Patriots 36-20 over the Raiders: When you fumble the ball away three times and miss a field goal it is very hard to win a game but it’s even harder if you’re facing HC Bill Bellichek.
