Julian Edelman Celebrates Win Over Miami Dolphins With Awesome Instagram Post

The New England Patriots won the season opener against the Miami Dolphins. It was a beautiful win and doubters will have to do second thinking. Patriots players were really productive and the team was dominant in the 21-11 win at Gillette Stadium. Veteran wideout Julian Edelman took to his Instagram account to celebrate the big win. Well, this is one of his post-game posts. A thing of tradition.

New England started the post-Tom Brady era with a big win. Veteran quarterback Cam Newton ran for two touchdowns and the defense forced three turnovers.

The former Carolina Panthers quarterback was 15-for-19 for 155 yards passing. Bill Belichick’s running game dictated the tempo throughout the game. Patriots players have no trouble running the ball.

Newton had 15 carries for 75 yards and two touchdowns. Sony Michel had 10 carries for 37 yards and a touchdown. Rex Burkhead finished the game with seven carries for 32 yards.

This was the most rushing yardage (217) in a game for the team since they finished with 273 yards in the game against the Buffalo Bills in December 2018.

The Pats took a 7-3 lead at the half. Newton’s first touchdown as a Patriot was really impressive. It was a four-yard burst around eight and made it 7-0 in the second quarter. The Dolphins responded with a field goal from Jason Sanders to reduce the lead to 7-3.

New England made it 14-3 early in the third on a drive that ended with a one-yard rush from Newton. The Dolphins forced a fumble on Patriots wideout N’Keal Harry and added a Jordan Howard TD and a two-pointer to make 14-11 with 10 minutes left of the game.

Newton and his team finished the game with an amazing 10-play, 75-yard drive that included the 2015 NFL MVP picking up a fourth-and-inches. Michel’s one-yard plunge was the cherry on top.

The Patriots better get ready for the big game next week. They are off to Seattle.
