FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- The New England Patriots have a brand new quarterback issue.Jimmy Garoppolo had three touchdown passes before leaving in the second quarter with a right shoulder injury as the New England Patriots outlasted the Miami Dolphins 31-24 on Sunday.It was the Patriots eighth straight home victory over Miami (0-2). It came at a price as New England (2-0) was dealt another blow at quarterback with Tom Brady already out his four-game Deflategate suspension.Garoppolos injury came on third down with less than five minutes left in the first half. He was chased out of the pocket and got off a completion to Malcolm Mitchell and driven into the ground on his shoulder by Miami linebacker Kiko Alonso.Garoppolo initially got up, before going down to one knee and being attended to by the training staff.

Its football and everyones just gotta do their job a little bit better.Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill on the slow offensive start: We couldnt get anything going.

Tannehill finished 32 of 45 for 389 yards, with two touchdowns and two interceptions.We were in a tough situation, Tannehill said. At that point, you can go one of two ways.

Thats what you want to see.QUICK START: Garoppolo had touchdown passes on each of the Patriots first three drives to build a 21-0 lead.He had four completions of over 10 yards on the opening drive, capping it with a 12-yard touchdown pass to Danny Amendola.
