NFL Game of the Week

Miami Dolphins at New England Patriots, 2002, Week 17 (23x22)

: 29, 2004

The Patriots had won Super Bowl XXXVI by not giving up. Now, on December 29, 2002, the defending champions could still make the playoffs by returning to that form. Though Miami seemed to have the upper hand for much of the game, Adam Vinateri came through once again. His clutch field goal tied the game with seconds left in regulation, and another FG won the game for New England, 27-24.
