FOXBOROUGH — Ask the Patriots what went wrong Sunday in their 15-10 loss to Miami, and they’ll use the right buzzwords and clichés. They’ll talk about the need to clean up their fundamentals and execution. They’ll say that the team needs to score more points, that players need to be more disciplined. They’ll call the losses frustrating.

In a game between two of the NFL’s worst teams that was pocked with penalties, missed kicks and clock management mistakes, each team managed 1 TD.
