DOPe - Dolphins Or Patriots?
(e for electronic; we're online, aren't we? *lol*)
The 1972 Dolphins went 14-0 in the regular season
The 2007 Patriots went 16-0 in the regular season
Right now -
before the playoffs start
and regardless, thus, of the fact that
the Dolphins won the Super Bowl
after their perfect season
and the Patriots have yet to play
3 more games, in order to do the same
RIGHT NOW -
which one would be the better team?
Don Shula's Dolphins
or Bill Belichick's Patriots?
Consider this though,
as you weight out the options here:
the present-day Patriots
have established several records
on par with compiling a perfect record
- a league mark with 75 touchdowns
- most points scored overall, with 589 points
(previous mark was 556 set by 1998's Minnesota Vikings.)
- most wins in a season, obviously
- Tom Brady topped a personal record
- Randy Moss topped a personal record!
(Brady's 50th touchdown pass eclipsed the old mark
set by arch-rival Peyton Manning.
To do it while defeating Peyton's brother,
Eli, was just an added touch...!
Moss established a new mark for receivers,
catching his 23rd touchdown pass
to surpass Jerry Rice's mark of 22.
So "storybook finish" this was,
that the both of them connected again
to set these new marks while scoring
the winning points that clinched
the win and the perfect season
16-0, for the Patriots!)
And one could add that
the Patriots' stingy defense
is stingiest than any other in history
including the '72 Dolphins
(who were perfect when the
Boston Bruins ruled the NHL
and won a second Stanley Cup
in three years!
Hmm... I hope a perfect NFL team
is a sign that the B's win the Cup!
I won't hold my breath for that though...!
Boston Celtics win another title, yes
But the B's...?
Long shot...!)
ANYWAY...
DOLPHINS
OR
PATRIOTS
