Home field at stake: If the Patriots beat the Dolphins, they will clinch home-field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs. 

Next Gen Stat: Only 17.2 percent of Tom Brady's passes this season have traveled over 15 air yards in length. Last year, 39.5 percent of Brady's passes traveled over 15 air yards.

New trend starting?: Last week against the Jets, a season-high 44.4 percent of Brady's passes traveled over 15 air yards.
