The Big Tuna comes in ressurrects Dolphins to greatest upset in history. Belichick says he didn't know what hit him.

It also says a lot for Belichick and his staff's character to take over a franchise like New England that were long, historical losers.

Originally posted by Virtue76They attributed that loss to the fact that Marino had an incredibly quick release time with the football. That seemed to be the only way to beat them that year, I have never seen a defense like that, the front seven attacked like rabid animals on every down, they were unstoppable.
and remember the Bears only lost once that year...to the Dolphins!

Dismal. The Pats have had a handful of good years sprinkled in their history before the Belichick era, but mostly they were playing second-fiddle.
