If you've watched the New England Patriots for the better part of the past 2 decades, you know they rarely get penalized. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we all know it's because the NFL loves the Patriots and Tom Brady. Regardless, here's a quick look at the recent penalty counts for the Patriots and Dolphins post Brady era.
2020 Regular Season- (NE #1, MIA #3)

Declined Penalties Against- NE 9 MIA 14
Offsetting Penalties- NE 1 MIA 8
Total Penalties Called Against- NE 72 MIA 96

2021 Preseason- (NE 25 total, MIA 11 total)

Week 2- NE 8 for 74 MIA 2 for 19
​Week 3- NE 8 for 55 MIA 5 for 50
Total- NE 25 for 187 MIA 11 for 107
While those numbers are not typical of the Patriots, I'm not too concerned since the preseason games involve so many players who won't actually see the field.

We will have to see if both quarterbacks get some favorable calls from fellow Alabama alum Scott Edwards. Being the field judge, he will have a big say on how the right side of the field is called for the wide receivers.
