Patriots Gridiron News: Top 3 highlights of Week 4’s dominance vs. Dolphins
More sweet feet
Tom Brady wanted more James White and he got it on Sunday. With 112 total yards and two touchdowns against the Miami Dolphins, the Wisconsin product proved his value in the New England Patriots offense.
While both of his touchdown scores deserve mention, his 22-yard rushing touchdown is what stands because White does most of his damage catching the ball.
Following Kyle Van Noy’s fumble recovery in the second quarter, White destroyed the Dolphins defense with a nice cutback move finding an opening into the end zone.
With the play, James White not only showed great vision and an ability to break tackles, he also demonstrated some breakaway speed.
Take a look:
Following the game, White talked about the chunk plays both he and Sony Michel were able to pick up on the ground. He also took a little time to talk about that 22-yard scamper into the end zone.
"“Just a little power play from the gun,” White said, via Patriots.com. “Just followed [Joe] Thuney, there wasn’t really a hole there, I kind of just peaked left. It was just Robert Quinn standing there. I made him miss and Josh Gordon had a good block blocking the corner and made just a good play.”"
It was a play that certainly broke the backs of the Dolphins defense for the afternoon.
