Dolphins 24, Bills 23


OVERVIEW: What's the big deal, the Dolphins won an ugly 3-2 game, right? Oops, almost forgot the dueling 21-0 scores in the first quarter and fourth. I put this in the top 10 of most exciting and satisfying Dolphins games I have attended. Nick Saban finally got a win that was more pulsating, even if more flawed, than his great pro career opener, the 34-7 walloping of 9-3 Denver in September. Sage Rosenfels, a free agent after the season, made himself some money with a relief performance that rivals the legendary Don Strock effort off the bench in the 1982 playoff game against the San Diego Chargers. Ironically, Don Criqui, CBS' play-by-play announcer for Sunday's game, was NBC's play-by-play man for that classic 41-38 overtime loss to the Chargers, where Strock relieved David Woodley to throw for 403 yards in three quarters. And Chris Chambers had an out-of-body-experience game, with 15 catches and 238 receiving yards, both club records.

I can't figure out how to do that.... it's in their pay Dolphins coverage.

Sorry for starting the thread.

Nothing and I mean nothing could rival that game. That was the greatest game ever played IMO. Both teams gave their heart and soul for 60+ minutes While this game was just poor execution on one side of the field...Fins for the first 3 qtrs and the Bills for the 4th qtr. Not taking anything away from the win but it was hardly the equivalent to an overtime playoff thriller that still gets played on NFL classics.
