Can Miami Defend their Perfect Season...The 1972 Winning One
As everyone already knows, the New England Patriots are 11-0. Everybody also knows that the Miami Dolphins are 0-11. Yet, these two teams are meeting on December 23 at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. Although they both have 3 games before then, I hope that the Patriots remain undefeated. Miami however, can pick up a few W’s before getting to New England.
If you haven’t already guessed it, I’m hoping that the Miami Dolphins can defeat the Patriots and defend their 1972 perfect season.
And yes, I do know that I’m being way too optimistic and a little too foolish, but you never know. The Dolphins have beaten them in their second matchup of the season for the last two years.
In 2005, the Dolphins took on the Patriots in Massachusetts and beat them 28-26 in Week 17 of the season. However, that season Miami finished 9-7 and the Patriots finished 10-6. On the other hand, in 2006 New England came down to Miami December 10th and experienced a shutout: Miami-21, Patrios-0.
I understand that the Dolphins have never looked worse and the Patriots have never looked better, but here are a few reasons why Miami should go up to Gillette Stadium in 23 days and defeat the New England Patriots.
1)Tom Brady fondles baby goats.
2)It would probably be the biggest upset in NFL history.
3)Who cares about getting the First-Round pick…whatever happened to dignity?
4)It would give the few Dolfans remaining some hope for next year’s season.
5)They’ve lost 6 games this season by only 3 points!
Just some hopeful wishing…It’s okay, you can laugh at me. =)

I hope the dolphins beat the Pats. I have hated the Pats ever since they beat the Eagles in the Superbowl and now because of last Sunday. I think it would be hilarious if the only loss the Pats have this season is from the the worst team in the league...the Dolphins.
Hopefully you are correct. I would love to see the Pats fall to the Dolphins. For me, it would be a perfect end to another embarassing season for the Dolphins. Beating the Pats would be the only way they could gain some respect within the league and end the season with their heads held high.
Also, if the Dolphins could some how beat the Pats it would show respect for their 72 team, which went undefeated.
However, if the Pats do go undefeated I think that the 72 Dolphins would still be considerred the better team.
