00:00:00Hey, Jimmy. Where have you been?
00:00:10Jimmy, the NBC Peacock is here to help you with your big move.
00:00:13You know what happens when you're late. Give me 20.
00:00:16Jimmy Johnson's made the move to the AFC.
00:00:30Welcome back to a sizzling hot South Florida, the second hottest day for a game in the history
00:00:53of the Dolphins' 30 years, and the heat put on by the running game in Marino, celebrating
00:00:58with Abdul-Jabbar and Jimmy Johnson leading the applause.
00:01:02This is exactly what he wanted this year, a team that could run the ball, and Abdul-Jabbar
00:01:07outrushing the man who led the AFC a season ago, 57 yards to 24 in the first half.
00:01:14Well, Jimmy Johnson told me in Chicago three weeks ago before the game, we're going to run
00:01:18the ball on first down, we're going to run the ball on second down, we're going to run
00:01:21the ball on third down.
00:01:21Did you believe him then?
00:01:22No.
00:01:23I did.
00:01:24Because the first time it went on, the first play they ran was a pass play, and so was the
00:01:28second play.
00:01:29So I thought he lied to me then, but he isn't lying now.
00:01:31I believed him the whole time, because I know the reason why he had success in Dallas.
00:01:35He believes that's the way you build a football team.
00:01:38Tough defense, you have to run the football, because it really sets the tone for your football
00:01:42team.
00:01:43Attitude, it makes you tough, because every day you've got to practice against a run,
00:01:48you practice trying to be a better running team, and they showed it here in the first half.
00:01:52Let's look at the halftime statistics now.
00:01:55That will reflect the rushing strength of Miami in building a 17-3 lead.
00:02:00The Cora's light halftime statistics and passing yards.
00:02:04Marino throwing only seven times, completing five for 48 yards.
00:02:08And of course, three big turnovers forced by the Miami defense.
00:02:13Two fumbles by Sean Jefferson, and an interception of Bledsoe that went for an early 70-yard touchdown.
00:02:19Lewis Oliver picked it off, fumbled at the 10.
00:02:21Sean Hill scooped it up on the one hop and took it in for the score.
00:02:25That started the game.
00:02:26And Oliver also, a fumble recovery, a big first half for him.
00:02:31New England to kick it off.
00:02:34Minnitary.
00:02:3817-3 Dolphins.
00:02:40Jairus McPhail, the speedy rookie, is the deep man.
00:02:53Fumbles the ball.
00:02:54Picked up by Oliver.
00:02:55Doesn't pick it up.
00:02:56And finally has to fall on it at the three-yard line.
00:03:00At least save total disaster as Miami begins inside its five-yard line.
00:03:05Son was right in McPhail's eyes.
00:03:07He couldn't see the ball.
00:03:08He just lost it.
00:03:10You see it so many times in baseball, you rarely see it in football.
00:03:13Look at it.
00:03:13He just totally lost the football.
00:03:16It's Lewis Oliver with his third fumble of the day.
00:03:22Larry Wiggum was right there for the New England Patriots.
00:03:26They spotted it the four.
00:03:28Before we get started, let me let Dick and I, or Phil and I, say one thing to you.
00:03:31Congratulations.
00:03:3230 years doing NFL football, Dick Enberg goes back to 1966, Los Angeles.
00:03:3830 years.
00:03:39That has a nice ring to it.
00:03:40Yes, it does.
00:03:41George Allen's first year as coach of the Rams.
00:03:44Congratulations.
00:03:44Thank you, friend.
00:03:45It's great to be here.
00:03:47Now, 17-3.
00:03:50And Marino from deep in his own end.
00:03:52And he comes out throwing.
00:03:53A little flat pass to Pitchett as fullback, and it gains very little as it was covered
00:03:59well by Dwayne Saab, the linebacker.
00:04:02Jim Gray.
00:04:04All right, Dick.
00:04:04I spoke to both coaches first.
00:04:05Jimmy Johnson.
00:04:06Very pleased with his defense.
00:04:07Very pleased that they were able to create so many turnovers.
00:04:10Loves the way they're running the football.
00:04:11Look for much more in the second half.
00:04:13Now, as for Bill Parcells, he was very calm.
00:04:15He says, we're beating ourselves.
00:04:16They're not doing much to us.
00:04:17We're just beating ourselves.
00:04:18He told his team very calmly at halftime, we're better than this.
00:04:21Let's act like it, Dick.
00:04:23All right, Jim.
00:04:25Second down and a short 10.
00:04:29Gain of about a foot on that pass by Marino.
00:04:36And Marino to throw again.
00:04:40Wide open.
00:04:42It's Pritchett, the fullback.
00:04:44And he has a first down in New England territory.
00:04:47Willie Clay saved the touchdown.
00:04:49Now, this play was set up because the Dolphins ran the football so well in the first half.
00:04:56New England has changed its defensive secondary.
00:04:59They had two deep all in the first half.
00:05:01Now, they only have one deep.
00:05:04So, that gives the seams and the outside open for Dan Marino.
00:05:07And look at that seam up top.
00:05:09When you run the football successfully in the NFL, that's what it does.
00:05:14Creates opportunities.
00:05:15Dan Marino took advantage of it.
00:05:17Pritchett, the rookie fullback from South Carolina.
00:05:2052 yards on the play.
00:05:22First down at the 44, the Patriots.
00:05:24Into the flat.
00:05:31Brought down at the 40-yard line.
00:05:33A gain of four.
00:05:34So, this is interesting.
00:05:35Jimmy Johnson establishes the run rather vigorously, in fact.
00:05:39In the first half, comes out and it's all passing.
00:05:41What did he tell us yesterday?
00:05:43He told us, we have to run the ball well because I want him to get out of that certain coverage
00:05:47where I can throw it.
00:05:49New England came out in the second half.
00:05:51They're out of it.
00:05:51He sees it.
00:05:52Let's throw the football.
00:05:54Second down and six for Marino.
00:05:57Sends Scott Miller right.
00:05:59O.J. McDuffie left.
00:06:01The tight end, Keith Byers, on the left side.
00:06:05Abdul-Jabbar, the running back.
00:06:06And Marino throwing again.
00:06:08Again in the flat.
00:06:09Abdul-Jabbar makes a good juggling catch for maybe a yard game.
00:06:13Well, actually, a loss of a couple of yards.
00:06:16New England's have covered it.
00:06:18I'm sorry, Dick, but New England learned its lesson.
00:06:20It went back to putting those safeties deep.
00:06:22And protect against those big passing plays.
00:06:25Well, let's play out here to Jabbar.
00:06:26I mean, I don't know if he's going to pick up much anyway, but he's gotten a little bit more than this.
00:06:30He juggled the ball.
00:06:31When you do that, the defense now has time.
00:06:34Sab gets there and they make the play.
00:06:35You know, that Pritchett play, they had Sab playing Pritchett for about 12 yards.
00:06:40And after that, there was nobody there.
00:06:42Well, there's no responsibility right here.
00:06:44That's the problem with that defensive coverage.
00:06:46Who has the people when they go deep in the seams?
00:06:49Third down and eight for Marino.
00:06:51Four wide.
00:06:52And the speedy rookie is to the 20 at first down.
00:06:59Jairus McPhail, the fifth-round pick from East Carolina.
00:07:04Baldwin Brown and Larry Wiggum with a tackle.
00:07:06All McPhail did was Juke Collins.
00:07:08Well, that's what Dan Marino wanted to do.
00:07:10Jairus McPhail against Todd Collins.
00:07:12You're going to see him go right down the middle.
00:07:14There's only one person can cover him.
00:07:18Todd Collins, the linebacker.
00:07:19Dan Marino sees that.
00:07:20The safeties are out there.
00:07:22A big hole for Dan Marino to throw to.
00:07:25So the rookies, and that's a dominant factor for the running backs here in the inning.
00:07:31McPhail, Abdul-Jabbar, Pritchett contributing well.
00:07:36Not this time.
00:07:38Abdul-Jabbar smothered.
00:07:40No game.
00:07:40Kareem Abdul-Jabbar picked in the third round.
00:07:45McPhail and everyone raving about what a great fifth-round selection he is.
00:07:49He beat them all in the training camp.
00:07:52And then Stanley Pritchett, the blocker.
00:07:53He's the Darrell Johnston, if you will.
00:07:55In Dallas, the fullback will block him.
00:07:57He can also catch, as Johnston does.
00:08:00And he showed you he's got some speed.
00:08:02What a draft to pick up those three running backs.
00:08:05And already you're seeing the effect.
00:08:07They're playing so well first game of the season.
00:08:10And he makes it to the 16-yard line, where it'll be third and five.
00:08:21Monte Brown made the tackle.
00:08:22You know, the interesting thing about the draft choices of Miami, when I first saw this,
00:08:28it's kind of hard to believe, but seven out of the 12 make it.
00:08:30But they had three picks in the fifth round, and all three guys make the football team.
00:08:36Well, it's Jimmy Johnson's track record has been, he just knows the talent of players.
00:08:42He does a good job of evaluating the college talent.
00:08:45And in Dallas, he had a lot of late round draft picks become very successful.
00:08:50And looks like he might do the same thing here with the Dolphins.
00:08:53There's Darryl Gardner.
00:08:54He was their number one pick, the 20th selected overall.
00:08:57Third down and five.
00:08:59Marino ducks the pressure.
00:09:00Throws to Pritchett.
00:09:03Fumbles into the end zone.
00:09:04Recovered by Miami Scott Miller for a touchdown.
00:09:08Oh, my.
00:09:09The second fumble recovered for a touchdown by Miami today.
00:09:25But you know, you're not going to believe this.
00:09:27Marino was throwing to Pritchett anyway.
00:09:29And Pritchett comes out.
00:09:30Watch him.
00:09:30He falls down.
00:09:31Then he gets back up.
00:09:32Marino just stays with him.
00:09:33Sav is there.
00:09:34And then makes the throw.
00:09:36You talk about hustle as a rookie.
00:09:37Now he gets hit.
00:09:38He's fouled in the end zone.
00:09:39They get the ball back.
00:09:40It's touchdown.
00:09:41But he falls down.
00:09:42Marino stays with him.
00:09:43And waits until he gets back up.
00:09:44And then hits him.
00:09:46Unbelievable.
00:09:48Mendes trying for a point.
00:09:50And the Dolphins now lead 24-3.
00:09:55Scott Miller gets the score.
00:09:59Dan Marino has Stanley Pritchett in his eyes as the only receiver on this play.
00:10:04Stanley Pritchett comes out.
00:10:06Watch him at the bottom of your screen.
00:10:07He's going to slip and fall.
00:10:09Dan Marino buys time by moving in the pocket.
00:10:11Pritchett gets back up.
00:10:13Hustles.
00:10:14Gets down to the one-yard line.
00:10:15Fumbles.
00:10:16The Dolphins are hustling.
00:10:18They recover the fumbles.
00:10:2096-yard drive.
00:10:22And Marino threw only seven passes the first half.
00:10:25A perfect seven for seven on the opening drive of the second half.
00:10:29Ted Johnson.
00:10:30Give him credit.
00:10:31He made a big hit to force the fumble.
00:10:32But it popped right into the arms of Scott Miller for the Miami score.
00:10:36Nedney, his kick is short to Megan at the eighth.
00:10:40And Megan has a crease.
00:10:4230, 40.
00:10:44Nedney trying to slow him down.
00:10:46Misses.
00:10:47And Megan finally knocked out.
00:10:48At the Miami 38-yard line.
00:10:53Another fine return by the veteran Dave Megan.
00:10:56The Patriots made something.
00:10:59Megan provides some spark for New England.
00:11:01A kickoff return all the way to the Miami 38-yard line.
00:11:04Ben Coates has caught just two balls.
00:11:06Drew Bledsoe and the Patriots pretty much need a score in this position.
00:11:13And he goes on top to Jefferson.
00:11:17It was out of bounds anyway.
00:11:18A reminder, Third Rock from the Sun has started its three-week countdown to the season premiere.
00:11:26Yeah, but look who's on beyond there, though.
00:11:28The NBA superstar, Dennis Rodman.
00:11:30You've got to watch this.
00:11:31I mean, he joins the aliens because he is an alien, isn't he?
00:11:34Yeah, and he's going against an out-of-this-world battle against evil dick.
00:11:39Yeah, the truth.
00:11:39Whoa.
00:11:40Yeah, the truth be known.
00:11:41It's the one-hour season premiere.
00:11:43Third Rock from the Sun three weeks from tonight here on NBC.
00:11:47Yeah, not a big stretch for Dennis Rodman.
00:11:49Very good.
00:11:53Second and ten for Bledsoe.
00:11:55He can't find it.
00:11:56Open target, and he's smothered by Darrell Gardner.
00:12:00The number one draft pick of the Dolphins gets a sack.
00:12:04Well, Drew Bledsoe's looking down the middle of the field,
00:12:07and one thing about Jimmy Johnson defenses.
00:12:11On first and second down, look at the receivers down the field.
00:12:14You will see nobody open.
00:12:16Drew Bledsoe's looking down the middle.
00:12:18Stop it right there.
00:12:19Look at this.
00:12:20Right here.
00:12:21They're right on it.
00:12:22There's Ben Coates in the middle field.
00:12:23Nobody is open.
00:12:26You must throw the ball outside the hashes on first and second down against this defense.
00:12:32Loss of seven, third and 17.
00:12:39The protection.
00:12:41And he drills it to Will Moore.
00:12:43Moore's first catch of the day.
00:12:45Right at the sticks.
00:12:46It'll be close to a first down.
00:12:48J.B. Brown, the tackler, along with Zach Thomas, who drifted back from middle linebacker.
00:12:53Well, if they don't make it, I guarantee you this is a four-down situation
00:12:56because you're down by a lot of 21 points, and you better put some points on the board.
00:13:01Come on, one eye.
00:13:02Did he make it or not?
00:13:03I can't see the ball.
00:13:04You've got to let me see the ball first of all.
00:13:06No, he didn't make it.
00:13:07He's short.
00:13:08He's almost a yard short.
00:13:09What do you think?
00:13:09Did he make it?
00:13:10Give me a hard one.
00:13:10All right, here it comes.
00:13:14Yeah, four.
00:13:15Fourth down and less than a yard for New England.
00:13:24Take the mark.
00:13:25Wide open is Coates.
00:13:27Ben Coates barrels to the goal line.
00:13:31Touchdown.
00:13:31Heat exhaustion or not, Big Ben Coates shows you why he is the most feared tight end in the AFC.
00:13:46Yeah, a little play action here, though.
00:13:47Well, and the Miami safeties just get completely fooled right there.
00:13:52They came up expecting the run.
00:13:54Lewis Oliver, we saw him earlier, tacked the line of scrimmage in a running situation.
00:13:58Here he played run all the way.
00:14:00Nobody back to cover Ben Coates.
00:14:03Adam Vinatieri with a try for point.
00:14:08And the rookie from South Dakota State knocks it through.
00:14:12And with 7.47 remaining in the third quarter, the Patriots on a 29-yard touchdown.
00:14:19Let's go to Coates.
00:14:20Cut the Miami lead.
00:14:24Now, the Patriots get a score when they needed one desperately.
00:14:27Set up by Dave Meggett's 54-yard kickoff return.
00:14:31And now Vinatieri sends a long, high kick.
00:14:36With the one to two.
00:14:37McPhail, he bombles it again as he did the last time.
00:14:40And he has to pay the penalty inside the five.
00:14:43Oh, McPhail twice having trouble fielding the kickoff.
00:14:48Let's go back to the touchdown.
00:14:50Watch Lewis Oliver with a strong safety on the play-action fake.
00:14:54He's just too aggressive coming up to the line of scrimmage, trying to stop the run.
00:14:58And Vin Coates walks right by him.
00:15:01And Drew Bledsoe does an excellent job of throwing it out there nice and soft where Vin Coates can catch it and score the touchdown.
00:15:07Okay, that's great hustle by Coates, though, to get in the end zone.
00:15:10But McPhail, Dick, I mean, you're looking at really some rookie mistakes now.
00:15:15Once he did, the one time he did lose the ball in the sun.
00:15:16That time he tried to run before he got the ball.
00:15:19You've got to wait till you get it.
00:15:20He won't be back there next week.
00:15:22Marino, 7 for 7 on the last drive that started inside the 5.
00:15:27Begins at the 5 this time.
00:15:32And it's Abdul-Jabbar.
00:15:34A loss of the yard.
00:15:36Devin Wyman, the rookie from Kentucky State, what an impressive physical specimen.
00:15:42He is 6'7 and 3-0-7.
00:15:44Played only one year at Kentucky State.
00:15:47How'd he get there, Dick?
00:15:49He's from East Palo Alto, California.
00:15:51And his mother said after junior college,
00:15:54I got an airplane ride for you to Kentucky State.
00:15:56He said it was a one-way ticket.
00:15:59His mother bought it.
00:16:00Isn't that great?
00:16:01That is great.
00:16:03They feel they made a steal here.
00:16:04He has a sixth-round selection by the Patriots.
00:16:09Hit by Willie McGinnis, says.
00:16:12Abdul-Jabbar gets it out to the six-yard line,
00:16:14where it'll be third down and nine.
00:16:16They're using those misters to try to cool off the Patriots.
00:16:20And if you're just joining us, the temperature well over 100 degrees.
00:16:23It is just a blistering hot late afternoon in South Florida.
00:16:27And it does look like the New England Patriots have caught their second win.
00:16:31They've gotten a little used to the heat.
00:16:33They've got some fluids in them at halftime.
00:16:35They look like they have a little more energy here in the second half.
00:16:38Well, they'd like to stop Marino and get the ball in good field position
00:16:42as Marino goes to the shotgun, third and nine.
00:16:44Oh, boy, help!
00:16:46Three wide receivers.
00:16:48Oh, no.
00:16:49And the rookie, Wyman, makes the mistake.
00:16:52And O.J. McDuffie, a first down at the 29.
00:16:59Actually, Wyman makes two mistakes.
00:17:02He makes two mistakes.
00:17:03The first one is when he goes offside.
00:17:05The second one, he didn't continue.
00:17:08Offside, number 72 of the defense.
00:17:11It only is a fly.
00:17:12All right, watch Devin.
00:17:13But watch Devin out.
00:17:14Now he's offside.
00:17:14Now watch what he does.
00:17:16He really doesn't put any pressure on him.
00:17:17Sims has got him.
00:17:18He's right there at the line of scrimmage.
00:17:20He doesn't get his hands up.
00:17:24And look at O.J. McDuffie going across the middle.
00:17:26Two safeties back there, but it doesn't matter.
00:17:28Dan Marino, best pass of the day from him right there.
00:17:32McDuffie who caught 62 last year.
00:17:34And that barely could catch 80 or 90 this season.
00:17:39Bernie Parmele, the veteran, out to the 33-yard line.
00:17:42A gain of five on first down.
00:17:45Parmele with knee surgery in the offseason.
00:17:48After a solid year rushing the ball,
00:17:51he gained 878 yards a year ago.
00:17:56Parmele, his first two seasons, barely used.
00:17:59He was a special teamer.
00:18:00And then the last two years, almost matching seasons.
00:18:04Just under 900 yards.
00:18:08He's 196 pounds.
00:18:10A 28-year-old from Ball State.
00:18:13Marino spends a timeout.
00:18:24And Miami, with five minutes and ten seconds remaining in the third quarter.
00:18:29The Dolphins with a two-touchdown lead.
00:18:32On the NFL, on NBC, the Wild West rivalry is renewed.
00:18:37Steve Bono and the Kansas City Chiefs host Tim Brown on the Oakland Raiders.
00:18:41John Elway and the Broncos battle Rick Meyer and the Seahawks.
00:18:44The Ravens take on the Steelers.
00:18:45Or regional action, next Sunday at 12 noon Eastern on the NFL on NBC.
00:18:49We're back in Miami.
00:18:53We're talking about the running game and the variety of young backs.
00:18:56That's Irving Spikes, who was penciled in as the starter,
00:18:59but has a hamstring late this week and obviously not in uniform.
00:19:03He's another part of the new-run offense look of Jimmy Johnson.
00:19:08The catch by tight end Keith Byers for little or no gain.
00:19:12It's Terry Ray all over Byers.
00:19:15Don't you like what Jimmy Johnson said, though, about Spikes?
00:19:17He said he had a twinge, but he could possibly have played.
00:19:20But he said, if he can't give us 100%, we can't use him.
00:19:22I mean, I really like the attitude.
00:19:24I mean, he wants healthy people.
00:19:26Well, a running back that has a little problem with his leg is useless
00:19:29because, you know, their legs are everything, of course,
00:19:32and there's no use with all the good young running backs he has here.
00:19:35You're right, Paul.
00:19:35If you're not 100%, don't even suit up.
00:19:37But I bet you he gets well early.
00:19:41It's McPhail in the backfield with Marino on third down and a long three.
00:19:47Over the middle, wide, and it's Miller.
00:19:50First down at the 42.
00:19:53Willie Clay made the hit.
00:19:55Scott Miller, who played at UCLA, the first down.
00:19:58Scott Miller comes underneath.
00:19:59Everybody's looking at O.J. McDuffie because they know that he's going to throw the ball to O.J. McDuffie,
00:20:04and Miller just comes up underneath, and really no one there to pick him up.
00:20:08Four minutes remaining in the third quarter.
00:20:10The Dolphins' last two possessions have started at the five or inside their own five.
00:20:16And Marino drove them 96 yards for a touchdown the last possession,
00:20:21and he's got them out of trouble now here on this one.
00:20:23Marino's arm.
00:20:34Incomplete to Myers covered by Terry Ray.
00:20:37Well, Miami, since Marino's been here, have never had a 1,000-yard rusher.
00:20:43It's been Marino's arm.
00:20:44That's been the hope at the start of each year.
00:20:47While the other top quarterbacks, Kelly's had seven, Elway five, Aikman with Emmitt Smith, of course, Warren Moon.
00:20:54They've all had a thousand-yard rusher, but not Dan Marino.
00:20:57So what would this team be like should the magical Marino have that kind of running game?
00:21:03Well, a lot of it's Dan Marino's fault for being so good.
00:21:07I mean, why run it when you have him the quarterback?
00:21:10And that's one of the reasons he didn't have a running game.
00:21:12Second and ten, and it's Carmelay protecting the ball to the 49, a game of seven.
00:21:19Third down and three, Miami.
00:21:22Willie McGinnis dragging down the ball carrier.
00:21:26That's the most years without a thousand-yard running back in the NFL in the current string.
00:21:30Wow, that's an amazing number.
00:21:32It is. I'm amazed. I tell you, you'd think you'd luck into one somewhere down the road, but
00:21:36it says a lot of things.
00:21:38It tells you they haven't been patient enough with their running game, but also it makes
00:21:42games longer when you throw it.
00:21:44Your defense wears down.
00:21:46That's why the Dolphins have lost so many games these past years in the second half of
00:21:50them when they were leading.
00:21:51Javar and Carmelay sharing their top duties today, and this is McTale who is unable to make
00:21:58the first down when the flag goes down.
00:22:00And as they go to the flag, just in case you're wondering, the last rusher for a thousand-plus
00:22:04for Miami was Delvin Williams against the Dolphins, undoubtedly to be declined by New England.
00:22:15There he is, Delvin Williams, and the great Larry Zonka and Mercury Morris are the only
00:22:20three ball carriers in Miami's 30 years to rush for a thousand or more.
00:22:27Boy, Zonka, just the very name conjures up images of just plowing for another first down.
00:22:34John Kidd to punt.
00:22:37Meggett, who has returned six punts for touchdowns since he left Towson State.
00:22:43We go to the New York Giants and New England.
00:22:45Back at the 10.
00:22:52Low liner.
00:22:54Back at the 12.
00:22:55Gets a block.
00:22:58All the 20.
00:22:59Look at the speed of that tackle.
00:23:0441-yard punt.
00:23:05Nine on the return.
00:23:07Frank Wainwright, a tight end, the tackler.
00:23:10There we go, Dean.
00:23:11Get an ass for football, man!
00:23:13He built the power.
00:23:15Welcome back to South Florida.
00:23:18That's Curtis Martin, who had many big games last year, the last five of the season for
00:23:23over 100 yards.
00:23:24He rolled up 142 against Miami in one of those games, and today held to 2.4 per rush.
00:23:32You're going to like what Bill Parcells said to Curtis Martin.
00:23:35The first day every walk down until practice field with the New England Patriots, he said,
00:23:38Hey, Martin, are you coming out here with football cleats or high heels?
00:23:42Because I don't want a tippy-toe winner.
00:23:44So, Curtis came out with cleats on it.
00:23:47Letso, with his team down by two touchdowns, throws to Will Moore, and it's ruled a catch
00:23:53at the 31-yard line, a gain of about 10.
00:23:56We'll see if it's enough for a first down.
00:23:58This is just an outstanding catch if it is enough, and if he does, in fact, stay inbound.
00:24:03The most important thing, does he have control of the ball?
00:24:06Watch his hands.
00:24:08He's got the ball.
00:24:10He touches.
00:24:11The official is right there.
00:24:12Excellent.
00:24:12I think it's an excellent call.
00:24:13Both feet down.
00:24:14They touch.
00:24:15He's in.
00:24:16They're right there.
00:24:17They called this one right.
00:24:18Borough played three years in the Canadian League with Calgary before coming to New England
00:24:23a season ago.
00:24:24Now, Barkley dragged down in the backfield by Tim Bowens.
00:24:28Bowens, the big number one pick of the Dolphins a couple of years ago out of Mississippi.
00:24:34Now, let me, you know, Jim Gray said, Jim Gray said that Parcells was very calm in the locker room.
00:24:40Now, he said, they're not doing anything to us.
00:24:42Take a look at this play with Bowens.
00:24:44Yes, they are.
00:24:45They're knocking him off the line of scrimmage, and they're creating havoc in the backfield
00:24:48for New England.
00:24:50They can't run the football.
00:24:52Parcells checks the clock.
00:24:53A minute and a half remaining in the third quarter.
00:24:56Second and 11 for Bledsoe.
00:24:58And now he goes.
00:25:01Number 23 shooting through.
00:25:04Robert Bailey, an extra defensive back, along with Daniel Stubbs.
00:25:08The third sack for Miami today.
00:25:11Stubbs, Entman, Bailey.
00:25:15Daniel Stubbs, who was drafted by San Francisco out of the University of Miami, Florida,
00:25:24as a second-round pick eight years ago.
00:25:27You can see Robert Bailey coming from the top of the screen.
00:25:30Nobody could account for him.
00:25:31That's why he got to the quarterback so fast and got the suck.
00:25:34Third and 19.
00:25:35Underneath to Coates.
00:25:44Get up some of the yardage to the 30, but fourth down and about 11, and the punting team on.
00:25:49Zach Thomas made the tackle.
00:25:52And the fans share the defense.
00:25:53Well, it was a simple blitz right there, and New England had the wrong pass play call because one blitzer comes,
00:26:03they can't pick him up, and Ben Coates has to adjust his route for just a short game.
00:26:07O.J. McDuffie drifts back as Tom Tupa in the punt, only the second punt today for New England.
00:26:16Dying spiral, McDuffie at the 26.
00:26:22And hit down at the 33-yard line.
00:26:26Tackled by Larry Wiggum.
00:26:2844-yard punt, eight on the return.
00:26:32A reminder, next Saturday at 4.30, your football fans will want to be aboard NBC Sports World
00:26:38to find out who is the most versatile back in the NFL.
00:26:41Who's the fastest man in the NFL?
00:26:44NFL run to daylight.
00:26:45You'll see some of the game's top running backs.
00:26:47You'll see Curtis Martin, Emmitt Smith, Thurman Thomas, and others compete.
00:26:51It's a series of tests, speed, strength, agility, pass-catching ability.
00:26:55That's NFL run to daylight next Saturday at 4.30 Eastern on NBC.
00:27:00I was there, you know.
00:27:02Well, don't tell us.
00:27:03I'm not going to tell you.
00:27:03I had to demonstrate all of Gould for everybody, though.
00:27:06Yeah, right.
00:27:06I did.
00:27:08First down at the 34 for Miami.
00:27:10Final minute of the third quarter.
00:27:13Abdul-Jabbar breaking a tackle.
00:27:16Makes something out of nothing.
00:27:17Gains five.
00:27:19That's probably the final play of the third quarter.
00:27:21Chris Slade made the stop for New England.
00:27:24So, three quarters in the book here in South Florida.
00:27:28Miami leading 24-10.
00:27:30We'll be back after these messages from your local station.
00:27:40Welcome back.
00:27:41We open the fourth quarter with Miami in the lead 24-10.
00:27:44They started the scoring with a 70-yard touchdown interception fumble.
00:27:49Second and five for the Dolphins as Marino hands off to Abdul-Jabbar, short yardage.
00:27:56Let's take a look at Miami the last few years and how they have performed by month.
00:28:01This is the last four years.
00:28:02September, October, very solid.
00:28:05But in the last two months of the year, playing under 500 ball.
00:28:08What does that tell you, Phil?
00:28:09Well, it tells me everything we've been talking about today.
00:28:12The running game, the defense stays on the field way too long in most of their games.
00:28:17And when it gets down, when they're ahead, like we said, late in the game, fourth quarter,
00:28:21they can't sustain by running, keeping the other team off the field, so they lose.
00:28:26So, Jimmy Johnson says, we're going to run the ball.
00:28:28And they have been very effective today.
00:28:31Third down and short.
00:28:32The throw to Miller.
00:28:33Complete.
00:28:34Almost a tough catch for Scott Miller, covered by Ty Law.
00:28:38And the Dolphins will have to punt.
00:28:40One other point, though.
00:28:41We came down here after the Miami Dolphins last year.
00:28:43They were 5-0.
00:28:44And they were playing Indianapolis.
00:28:46Had them a 24-3 at halftime, Dick.
00:28:48And the problem is they could not run the football at all in that ballgame.
00:28:53You're right.
00:28:53Indianapolis Colts back, win it in overtime, and beat them.
00:28:56And then they just went on that slide.
00:29:00Costly in many ways, including the head coach's job.
00:29:05John Kidd.
00:29:08Beautiful spiral.
00:29:10Megan.
00:29:12The 12.
00:29:15How about it to go?
00:29:1714 minutes and some change remain.
00:29:21New England down by two scores.
00:29:23The NFL on NBC is brought to you by Nissan, who reminds you that life is a journey.
00:29:29Enjoy the ride.
00:29:30By the U.S. Army.

00:29:34Be all you can be.

00:29:38Tap the Rockies with a smoother pour.
00:29:41And by United Airlines and its more than 50,000 employee owners.
00:29:44Come fly the friendly skies.
00:29:46Back in Miami where the Dolphins lead 24-10.
00:29:52Bledsoe from his own 14.
00:29:54Goes to the out.
00:29:55And that broken tackle as number 81, Hassan Graham, skips down the sidelines to the 37 before
00:30:03Lewis Oliver can make the stop.
00:30:0523-yard play.
00:30:06Well, the weakness of this Miami Dolphin defense on first down, these out cuts, Hassan Graham
00:30:12doing an excellent job there.
00:30:14And Terrell Buckley being a little over-aggressive, must make that tackle right there after the
00:30:1910-yard catch.
00:30:20Did you hear Ditka in the pre-game show?
00:30:22Said, WRA, if Terrell Buckley can tackle.
00:30:24Well, that's what he said.
00:30:28Bledsoe underneath to this side.
00:30:31And another catch by Graham right at the sticks.
00:30:34They're going to rule him out of bounds at the 46-yard line, a yard shy of a first down.
00:30:40Well, Graham back-to-back catches the former Georgia star.
00:30:44And you see right there again, J.B. Brown slipping and falling, but wide open.
00:30:48And even Hassan Graham trying to turn up the field, slipping to the field.
00:30:52Even though it's dry right here, it rained last night, it's very hard, but the top layer
00:30:57is a little moist.
00:30:58That's why you see so many players slipping.
00:31:00Wrong cleats.
00:31:02Bledsoe, 6 for 7 in the second half after throwing a 50% first down.
00:31:10Reverse to Jefferson.
00:31:12Jefferson's speed gets it.
00:31:14And he fumbles again, but it goes out of bounds.
00:31:17He's ruled down, and he may be ruled out.
00:31:20He hasn't moved.
00:31:22He was smothered.
00:31:24What a hit on Sean Jefferson by Zach Thomas.
00:31:28You can understand why he would fumble that time.
00:31:31Yeah.
00:31:31That hit.
00:31:32But I'm going to tell you something.
00:31:34I mean, if you're going to run the reverse, why this guy?
00:31:36I mean, he's fumbled twice, and now he's fumbled for the third time.
00:31:39I know the hit is there by Zach Thomas.
00:31:41Number 54.
00:31:42Here comes the hit.
00:31:43Oh.
00:31:44I mean, that's shoulder to shoulder.
00:31:46He goes down, the ball comes out.
00:31:47That is a fumble.
00:31:48He's out on the way down.
00:31:49It looks like Sean Jefferson on the way down has already been, oh, it's, yeah, helmet to
00:31:55helmet right there.
00:31:56I mean, that's just a great play by Zach Thomas.
00:32:00I mean, this guy, the one thing that Jimmy Johnson told us about him is watch this.
00:32:05Watch 54 come in and just level Jefferson.
00:32:08But the thing about Zach Thomas, he said, he is going to make mistakes, but he's going
00:32:13to be where the ball is.
00:32:14He may miss a tackle or two.
00:32:16He didn't miss this one.
00:32:17Sean Jefferson's head.
00:32:18Just watch what happens when Zach Thomas hits it.
00:32:21And I think Phil's right.
00:32:22He was out on the way down.
00:32:23Watch his head go back and away, and the ball's just coming out.
00:32:27Now, that is not a fumble.
00:32:29But, I mean, he was just, helmet to ear hole.
00:32:32Here it comes.
00:32:35His head just snaps.
00:32:38That is a solid hit.
00:32:43Sean Jefferson's left arm, left hand, reaching for the attendant.
00:32:47That's in a way, in his own way, as a signal for his family at home to know that he's got,
00:32:51you know, strength in that arm and that it isn't serious.
00:32:55That's perhaps his way of communicating to his loved ones watching.
00:33:01Back to the action.
00:33:02First down.
00:33:03New England trailing 24-10 from the 48 of Miami.
00:33:06Bledsoe out of the backfield.
00:33:07Sam Cash gets a rare chance.
00:33:10The fullback, primarily a blocker, out of Penn State, close to a first down, and does have it inside the 38-yard line.
00:33:18Thomas, another tackle, along with Gene Atkins.
00:33:20I saw Ben Coates go in motion, a little spring in his leg.
00:33:23Something like this inspires the team to go on.
00:33:25If you remember after the touchdown with Ben Coates, when we showed Parcells, he put one finger up, like, this is the first touchdown.
00:33:31We need two more.
00:33:32Plenty of time.
00:33:33Over 12 minutes remain.
00:33:36First down, Patriots.
00:33:38Thomas on the blitz.
00:33:39They pick it up.
00:33:40And it forces Bledsoe to throw high and long.
00:33:43Troy Brown on the near sidelines.
00:33:45The target, covered by J.B. Brown.
00:33:50Well, the Miami defense tired of seeing these passes to the outside on first and second down, so they change it up.
00:33:56They send the blitz, put some pressure on Drew Bledsoe.
00:33:58He has to unload a little before he's ready.
00:34:01Incomplete pass.
00:34:02Gash doing a good job of picking up the blitz and linebacker.
00:34:06Jimmy Johnson's debut in the NFL with Miami.
00:34:11His team leads 24-10.
00:34:1312 minutes left.
00:34:16Bledsoe.
00:34:18Blossom high for Coates.
00:34:20Terrible pass.
00:34:22Intercepted out of bounds by Oliver.
00:34:26Boy, I'll tell you what.
00:34:27You hit that one on the head.
00:34:28I mean, you talk about a terrible pass.
00:34:31I mean, that was awful.
00:34:33There was no chance for Coates to get it.
00:34:34Lewis Oliver is just trying to hold onto the ball.
00:34:39Now, he wasn't trying to throw that away.
00:34:41No, he was not.
00:34:41And he just, it's just all flying by about 10 yards because if he throws it to the inside, it might be a touchdown.
00:34:49Lewis Oliver was outside, kind of fooled on the play.
00:34:52And Drew Bledsoe, just bad judgment where to throw the football.
00:34:54Third and 10 from the Miami 37.
00:35:01Blitz.
00:35:02He hits Miggott.
00:35:04But shy of a first down at the Miami 29.
00:35:07So, Bill Parcells trailing by a 14.
00:35:11Doesn't have much of a choice here.
00:35:13Fourth down and about two.
00:35:17Trailing by a 24-10 score.
00:35:19They're going to go for it.
00:35:21If there's a bright spot, it's Miggott.
00:35:22I mean, this guy does everything.
00:35:24Every time we ever see these guys with Miggott, when he was with the Giants and with New England,
00:35:28this guy does everything for you.
00:35:30Jimmy Johnson sends in two linebackers and takes out two defensive backs.
00:35:38I say they blitz it.
00:35:41Time out.
00:35:42Blitz off.
00:35:42That's an interesting and most times fourth and two you send in heavier linemen.
00:35:50Johnson goes to linebackers.
00:35:53We'll be back.
00:35:53Kevin Thomas, Rodney Hampton, Curtis Martin, and more.
00:35:58Eight elite NFL running backs in a test to see who's best as they run to daylight.
00:36:04Plus, who's the league's top speed burner?
00:36:06The NFL's fastest man settles the score on Sports World.
00:36:10Next Saturday at 4.30 Eastern on NBC.
00:36:14Critical spot in this game with New England trailing by two touchdowns.
00:36:19A fourth down and two at the 29.
00:36:24Pokes in motion.
00:36:28Let's all can't complete it.
00:36:30No one there.
00:36:32Zach Thomas applied the pressure up the middle.
00:36:36The middle linebacker.
00:36:37And this rookie from Texas Tech kicked in the fifth round has been brilliant on his 23rd birthday.
00:36:44I'll tell you one thing.
00:36:45I mean, when you look at Zach Thomas here, the blitz is on.
00:36:49And there is just no place to go.
00:36:50They sent too many people out.
00:36:51And not enough people stayed home.
00:36:53Nobody even blocks Zach Thomas.
00:36:55And Drew Bledsoe throws it away.
00:36:57But let me ask you something.
00:36:58Both of you guys.
00:37:00When was the last time you saw the Miami defense play this well?
00:37:04Probably never.
00:37:06No, I mean that.
00:37:07I mean because it's a different defense.
00:37:08That's the attitude.
00:37:09The coaching is a little different.
00:37:13You're saying never meaning the last 10 years or so.
00:37:16As long as I've been following it, I've never seen it play probably this sound and give you a few different looks.
00:37:22But the base defense they're playing today, it might be the best I've seen.
00:37:26And some of the folks here would say, well, the killer bees defense in the early 80s and, of course, going back to the glory years in the 70s and the perfect season.
00:37:34But in recent memory, certainly this has been Jimmy Johnson has shown why he's so highly regarded as a coach.
00:37:41He's made this team.
00:37:43Many felt that Johnson was going to get his head handed to him here.
00:37:46Well, he said, my defense, he's told a lot of people, my defense is going to fool this league because we're going to do a little better than people expect.
00:37:55They've held New England to 195 yards today.
00:37:58Marino to McDuffie and a flag.
00:38:05Kai Law, just a little premature in his contact.
00:38:08I don't know if it's just me up here, Phil, but when I look at Marino sometimes and he makes that throw, when he sees that defensive guy so close to his receiver, he seems to pick out the guy.
00:38:23I mean, it's almost like an instinct.
00:38:25On the defense, the cornerback.
00:38:27First down.
00:38:28He knows he's going to get a pass interference call.
00:38:30It just seems that way because O.J. McDuffie was covered.
00:38:33And he's grabbing his arm before the ball, sir.
00:38:41Marino knows.
00:38:42I'm telling you, he knows.
00:38:43He knows.
00:38:44Of course he does.
00:38:46A lot of times you don't get that call, but that time he did.
00:38:50First down at the 35 for Miami with 10 and a half minutes remaining.
00:38:5524-10 the score.
00:38:59Look at that.
00:38:59The almost submarine that pass complete to Stanley Pritchett, the rookie fullback.
00:39:05He has thrown three-quarters, sidearm, and now he's going on.
00:39:08He's doing an Eldon Orker down.
00:39:10Well, I'll tell you.
00:39:11Hey, as a quarterback in the National Football League, you're going to have to make up ways to throw it sometimes.
00:39:16And right there, Dan doing the old sidearm.
00:39:19You're right.
00:39:19Almost a submarine.
00:39:20Well, he saw Slade coming, and he knew he was going to get hit.
00:39:24But he said, well, almost got me.
00:39:27You know, the thing about it is, see, this is what we're talking about, the run game earlier.
00:39:30Now, you can run early in the ball game.
00:39:31But now when you need to run and control the clock, this is when they have to work on their running game.
00:39:3775% hits for Marino.
00:39:39Here's Abdul-Jabbar, ranking tackles for the 48 of New England.
00:39:49That's what I'm talking about.
00:39:51This is when you have to be able to run the ball, Phil, at this point in the game.
00:39:56Nine and a half minutes to go.
00:39:57You've got a 14-point lead, and you've got to control the ball and the clock.
00:40:01And watch this blocking.
00:40:03There's Pritchett again coming out, making an outstanding block.
00:40:05And then Abdul-Jabbar on his feet, making the run to pick up the first down.
00:40:09Keeps the clock going, keeps the ball moving.
00:40:12And you see where they ran that football, to the left side.
00:40:14And Jimmy said, we've got to have success on the left side of the offensive line today.
00:40:19They've had it.
00:40:2079 yards down for the rookie, Abdul-Jabbar.
00:40:29It's Jabbar again for about 5 to the 43, 42-yard line.
00:40:35Devin Wyman, Imani Brown, the tacklers.
00:40:37Well, Paul, you say you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
00:40:40Well, that one goes out because this offensive line, which has never been noted to be physical,
00:40:45is showing us today, after a training camp of preseason,
00:40:49they don't mind getting in there and just butting a few hits.
00:40:52Well, every time we ask an offensive lineman, and I know Phil always looks at me,
00:40:54would you rather run block or pass block?
00:40:56Dick, what do they say?
00:40:57They always say run block.
00:40:58They bet.
00:40:59Because they're the aggressor then, instead of taking the punishment,
00:41:02falling back to protect the passer.
00:41:04That's the point.
00:41:05Jabbar.
00:41:08As they wear down the New England defense, another first down, Miami.
00:41:16There's one thing they've got to work on, though.
00:41:18This is new to him running the football.
00:41:19Dan Marino getting this late in the game.
00:41:21Abdul-Jabbar is going to come out.
00:41:23Parmalee replaces him, and the fans on the near side give him a hand.
00:41:28And they're standing, some of them.
00:41:3297 yards rushing for the rookie from UCLA.
00:41:37I'm not kidding you.
00:41:38When I saw Jimmy Johnson in Chicago, he said, I don't know anything about this guy.
00:41:43I mean, he looks good on one play, then he gets hurt, and he goes and sits on the sidelines.
00:41:46Even Marino told us that.
00:41:48Now it's Parmalee, the veteran, and it's as if the Patriots were waiting for Parmalee to come in to punish him,
00:41:54as Wyman and others make the stop.
00:41:57And I'm not knocking this guy, and Jimmy wasn't either.
00:41:59He said, I just don't know what he's going to do.
00:42:01He makes a super play, and then he goes on the sidelines, and he's got a nick here, a nick there.
00:42:06And he said, but then, I guess the last couple of games, he came on and did practice,
00:42:10and Marino said, we know he can run.
00:42:12He's had a pretty good high school team, Paul, at Dorsey High in L.A.,
00:42:16Keyshawn Johnson, the number one pick from the Jets, and this guy on the same team.
00:42:20That's a bit unfair.
00:42:21Yeah, it is.
00:42:23Yeah, and they didn't win a game.
00:42:24Yeah, I bet.
00:42:26They did.
00:42:27Yeah, by less than 40.
00:42:29Third, second down, and close to 15 as Marino throws.
00:42:36He hit away.
00:42:37Closest was Ricky Reynolds, the cornerback.
00:42:41Pio Sangapula Politelli was in there to apply pressure.
00:42:49I think, actually, old Devin Wyman knocked the ball down.
00:42:52But when he walked in the room, all the lights went out.
00:42:55I mean, I never—that guy is huge.
00:42:57Yes, he is.
00:42:59There he is, 6'7", and 3'07".
00:43:01He's got to waste about 38.
00:43:04Well, he looks like he could carry a lot more.
00:43:06A little saggy now, but when we saw him, it was air-conditioned and cool.
00:43:11That's right.
00:43:13A little saggy.
00:43:14Third and 15.
00:43:16And whistle before the snap.
00:43:20That usually means offense for five, and James Brown moving.
00:43:23Before the snap, the ball starts.
00:43:26Number 76.
00:43:28Five yards.
00:43:29It's still third down.
00:43:30See, and, you know, we talked about how they're moving the ball and how they do things.
00:43:34But here they are.
00:43:35You know, there's still almost seven minutes to play, Phil.
00:43:38And they're now down into a third-and-twenty situation.
00:43:41But, Paul, the big thing is, even if they don't score in this drive, they ate up a lot of time, got some good first downs.
00:43:47The running game did it.
00:43:50So they've accomplished a lot right for the Miami team right here in this drive.
00:43:54Four-and-a-half minutes so far on the drive.
00:43:55And yet, if you're a New England fan, you can play, what if, and, you know, the score may be a bit misleading.
00:44:03Three turnovers, two fumbles, and we're bounced right back to Miami, both for touchdowns.
00:44:08Marino from the blind side.
00:44:10That could be ruled a fumble.
00:44:11No, now they're saying incomplete.
00:44:13His arm was going forward.
00:44:14And Marino just happy all the limbs are in the same place.
00:44:17But, Dick, my big point is, what if, well, Miami had something to do with those turnovers.
00:44:23So, and McGinnis had trouble getting in and getting pressure on Dan Marino all day that time,
00:44:29just showing his speed and quickness and beating Richmond Webb.
00:44:33And that's the first time today he's had a chance to hit Dan Marino.
00:44:37John Kidd in to punt.
00:44:38Just try to pooch one as Megat stands inside the ten.
00:44:45Megat fair catch at the nine-yard line.
00:44:52Flag is down.
00:44:53Back at the line of scrimmage against Miami.
00:44:57Holding.
00:44:58Number 53 of the kicking team.
00:45:00Ten yards.
00:45:01Three feet, fourth down.
00:45:05Larry Izzo, the free agent rookie from Rice, who was the second man to make the team.
00:45:11Holding as New England put on a punt block.
00:45:15And, uh, he made sure that it didn't happen, but held in the process.
00:45:20Let me, let me guess who the first guy was that made the team.
00:45:22I think it might have been that number 13.
00:45:24Jimmy Johnson said, hey, a couple of weeks to go, let's end all doubt.
00:45:28One guy's made the team, Marino.
00:45:30And a week later, he said, Izzo, where do you live?
00:45:33He said, Houston, call your parents.
00:45:34You're the second guy.
00:45:35Because he loved the way he plays on special teams.
00:45:37That's right.
00:45:38Is that a thrill?
00:45:39Oh, you know, they just fired everybody on the team, I'm sure, to hear you get rewarded for working hard.
00:45:45Psychologist.
00:45:46And the negate lets it go into the end zone.
00:45:49And so, uh, the penalty is worth about 11 yards as New England will take over at the 20 when we return.
00:45:55I'm Jim Gray.
00:45:56Well, on this play, Sean Jefferson was hurt.
00:45:58Initially, the Patriots told us it was a problem with his collarbone, possibly a fractured collarbone.
00:46:02The Patriots are now changing that diagnosis.
00:46:05They say he has a concussion, he's in the locker room for observation, and he will not return.
00:46:09Dick.
00:46:10All right, Jim.
00:46:12New England trailing 24-10.
00:46:14Six-and-a-half minutes remaining from the 20-yard line.
00:46:17Bledsoe underneath for the tight end, Coates, but only five on the play.
00:46:21As Thomas makes still another tackle, his ninth of the game.
00:46:26What a debut for him.
00:46:28Hurry up offense.
00:46:30Second and five.
00:46:31Make it second and four as they spot it at the 26.
00:46:36That's up.
00:46:37The Coates again.
00:46:39And the big tight end has ten more on the first down.
00:46:41Gene Atkins and Sean Hill combined on the tackle.
00:46:45Filler, these pre-call plays, because all Bledsoe did was walk up the line and said, go.
00:46:48No, I see him right now.
00:46:50He's telling them.
00:46:50He's yelling at the numbers.
00:46:52The system is pretty simple for the Patriots.
00:46:55Two numbers will tell everybody what to do.
00:46:57Six catches for Coates in the game and a touchdown.
00:47:01Oh, he caught him.
00:47:02Screamed to Megat, and it's incomplete.
00:47:05You were saying they caught him because the defensive was the perfect call for the blitz.
00:47:09Against that play.
00:47:11That's right.
00:47:11They're sending blitzers right here.
00:47:13Watch Sean Hill be coming there, and they let the defensive lineman come in.
00:47:18They got the perfect call on the screen against it.
00:47:21But look, Miami only has two people reacting to it, and Megat drops the ball.
00:47:30A little outside, but if Dave Megat usually gets his hands on it, somehow he usually catches it.
00:47:35Second and ten with five and a half minutes left.
00:47:39New England trails by 14, and way outside as Troy Brown is the intended receiver.
00:47:45Bledsoe under pressure.
00:47:46Do you know what's amazing about a screen pass that I just, I can never understand with offensive linemen?
00:47:54Why are they looking at the quarterback, and why are they looking at the receiver,
00:47:57and why aren't they faced upfield to make a block?
00:48:00I mean, that kind of Megat drops the ball, but they're all looking back at the quarterback.
00:48:05Third down and ten.
00:48:08One for eight are the Patriots on third down today.
00:48:12Bledsoe.
00:48:14Guns it.
00:48:14Complete.
00:48:15And John Burke, the tight end, has a first down at the 45 of the Dolphins.
00:48:2119 on the play.
00:48:23Excellent job of the New England Patriots picking up the blitz.
00:48:26And there we saw Drew Blitz, so something we didn't see last year.
00:48:29That's right.
00:48:29Moving in the pocket, bought himself some times.
00:48:32And he really threw a rifle shot.
00:48:34That he can do.
00:48:36Throws this one long.
00:48:38Almost intercepted by Oliver intended for Will Moore.
00:48:41And a flag down at the 32-yard line where Zach Thomas made contact with Hassan Graham.
00:48:50Yeah, well, Hassan Graham was on the ground.
00:48:53That's called contact, too.
00:48:55Illegal contact.
00:48:56Illegal contact.
00:48:57Number 23 of the defense.
00:48:59Five yards.
00:49:00Automatic first down.
00:49:01Well, Robert Bailey says, who me?
00:49:03Yeah, Robert Bailey hit the receiver coming at him.
00:49:06He's 10 yards down the field.
00:49:07And he basically just, boom, comes up, fires into him, knocks him on the ground.
00:49:11That's a penalty.
00:49:11That gives, stops the clock at 5-0-2.
00:49:15I think Lewis, I think Lewis Oliver's touched the ball from Bledsoe more than his receivers had.
00:49:19Well, Lewis has got to wear some sticky gloves because he can't catch it.
00:49:23He's dropped the Shure.
00:49:25He's dropped two.
00:49:26Shure interceptions did get one, but he's dropped two today.
00:49:28One that led to the opening touchdown of the game, a 70-yard play.
00:49:33On first down, Bledsoe, a little too tall for Hassan Graham.
00:49:39Porter, I like what the defensive line just did.
00:49:41They were almost offside.
00:49:43And Aaron Jones, which Miami has the luxury of doing,
00:49:46they have seven defensive linemen, and they've been able to use them all.
00:49:50And what these guys did, they were almost offside.
00:49:52But watch what they do.
00:49:53No, no, watch him slide.
00:49:54They slide down the line.
00:49:56He gets back onside.
00:49:57What are you looking at me?
00:49:59He got back onside.
00:50:00I think he was offside.
00:50:01Yeah, well, you're not throwing the flag.
00:50:03If you had a flag, you could throw it up there.
00:50:05All right, that's a good comeback.
00:50:06Get away.
00:50:07Just under five minutes remain.
00:50:09New England trying to scramble for a score, and he has to throw this one away.
00:50:15Well, I'm going to tell you what happened.
00:50:16They're trying to run a screen, and Meggett can't get out.
00:50:18Bowens just knocked him down and held him on the ground.
00:50:21They threw a flag, but Tim Bowens is holding Meggett.
00:50:27That's a bit unfair.
00:50:28They're different weight classes, that's for sure.
00:50:30I would think so.
00:50:31Now, watch number 95.
00:50:32Here's Meggett.
00:50:33He's trying to get out, 22.
00:50:34What's this here?
00:50:35Is this?
00:50:37Oh, man.
00:50:37That's a body slam.
00:50:40That's a semi on a...
00:50:42On a Volkswagen.
00:50:44No chance there.
00:50:47Oh, man.
00:50:48Tim is 3'10 plus.
00:50:51And Jimmy Johnson said, he just got tired and fell on that other guy.
00:50:56First down on the five-yard penalty to the 35.
00:51:00That was a big play, because that was third.
00:51:02It could have been third and 10 coming up.
00:51:05Patriots have two timeouts left.
00:51:07Four minutes, 49 seconds remain.
00:51:09So a touchdown here in New England.
00:51:12We'll have some hopes alive.
00:51:14But what impressed me on that play right there, and it has all day long, is the pressure they put on that play.
00:51:20Deflected on the deflection by Terrell Buckley.
00:51:25The pass intended for Troy Brown.
00:51:28Gene Atkins deflected it.
00:51:31And Buckley, who had three interceptions in the preseason, gets his first of the year.
00:51:37But what impressed me on that play right there, and it has all day long, is the pressure they put on Drew Bledsoe.
00:51:45But there you can see Brown getting behind the defense.
00:51:50Good job.
00:51:50But Gene Atkins, the safety, getting over there.
00:51:53And Terrell Buckley in the right spot.
00:51:54But here's what I think caused the whole problem for Drew Bledsoe.
00:51:59They're just pushing the pocket.
00:52:00Nobody's getting free.
00:52:01Look at that.
00:52:02Pushing, pushing.
00:52:03And then Tim Bowens finally gets free to get in there.
00:52:05Makes Drew Bledsoe throw it before he's ready.
00:52:09Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
00:52:11Marino back on offense.
00:52:12Jabbar just needs a couple of yards to hit the century mark in his debut.
00:52:1898 yards today.
00:52:20That would be a pleasant story for him.
00:52:23He's outside.
00:52:25He's got two.
00:52:26He's got four.
00:52:27And goes over the century mark.
00:52:30Ricky Reynolds makes the tackle.
00:52:32I tell you, they should put that up on the scoreboard because this place would go crazy.
00:52:36And it's been a long time since they've had a 100-yard rusher in one game.
00:52:42And, I mean, it's really a nice thing to see.
00:52:45This young man has played very well today.
00:52:47Of course, the offensive line has blocked extremely well.
00:52:49Well, then, and really, all the rookies for the Miami Dolphins that were in this game,
00:52:54all stepped up and had good, solid football games.
00:52:58And that's the reason why they're leading.
00:53:01More turnovers have haunted the New England Patriots.
00:53:04And Marino and Ryan taking advantage.
00:53:07And Jabbar squirts to a first down at the 31.
00:53:11And at the risk of belaboring the point, this is what Miami didn't have for many years,
00:53:17a running game that could run out of clock with a lead.
00:53:19Monte Brown makes the stop.
00:53:21A reminder, tonight, Dateline Sunday, the president's top political advisor caught in a scandal.
00:53:29Why did this story surface when it did?
00:53:31And just what's in those red-hot home movies?
00:53:34Watch Dateline NBC following this game on most NBC stations.
00:53:39To be seen at its regularly scheduled time out on the West Coast.
00:53:45First down for Marino.
00:53:46The clock continues to run.
00:53:48And so does Jabbar.
00:53:51As he gains five more.
00:53:53Bill, I'm going to tell you, after this game, I would love to have a conversation with Marino.
00:53:59He's going to love what happened in this ballgame.
00:54:01I mean, this is the type of ballgame that he likes.
00:54:04I mean, he does not.
00:54:06Many breakfasts, he's broken.
00:54:08It's not important for him to come out here and throw for 400 yards.
00:54:11It's important for them to win number one.
00:54:13They control the football.
00:54:14And that's what they can do.
00:54:15Oh, I think you can appreciate it more now, late in his career.
00:54:18But the big thing it does, too, it also takes away the wear and tear on Dan Marino.
00:54:24He can still be fresh as this year goes along.
00:54:27This running game is only going to help him.
00:54:31Bernie Parley replaces Jabbar.
00:54:32He stops two yards shy of a first down.
00:54:35You saw Jabbar come out with 115 yards rushing today as the clock ticks down toward the two-minute warning.
00:54:45And timeout call by New England.
00:54:48They have one remaining.
00:54:50Curtis Martin, who, going back to last year, rushed for 100 yards, five consecutive games,
00:54:56only 23 yards today.
00:54:58And Abdul-Jabbar not only over the century mark, but a solid average, 4-4.
00:55:03That's what's impressive.
00:55:05When you can, when you, you know, you look at the numbers, and, you know, a lot of times you're
00:55:09inflated.
00:55:09But you look at Jabbar's numbers, 4.4 yards every time he touches the ball, on the average.
00:55:15Now, all you got to do is give it to him three times.
00:55:18And here's the other statistic that underlines the game story for those just joining in.
00:55:24Jabbar carried the ball 26 times.
00:55:27Marino threw the ball 21 times.
00:55:30Wow.
00:55:31You know what was surprising?
00:55:32And I looked at Phil's face yesterday.
00:55:34We were talking to Marino, and he said, I've never had a problem with my arm.
00:55:39My arm has always been strong.
00:55:41Even as many balls as he's on, he's broken every record there is to break.
00:55:44Well, this year, he'll go over 4,000 completions and over 50,000 yards.
00:55:49First man, and probably next year, he'll hit his 400th touchdown pass.
00:55:55That's a running game today.
00:55:57Took it off to a different runway here.
00:56:00And it didn't work.
00:56:01I tried to say earlier, Dick, he's got to learn to, when they get ahead like this,
00:56:08to look at that 25-second clock and run it down to one or two seconds.
00:56:13Third timeout used by New England.
00:56:16So their allotment has now been utilized with 2.09 left and a fourth down coming up.
00:56:24But you can't blame Martin.
00:56:26The Patriots fell behind early 10 to nothing.
00:56:28And the game strategy changed with New England always being behind.
00:56:34Never really close.
00:56:36You know, we've seen New England, but I really do.
00:56:40You know, this weather down here, you walked out on this field about 11 o'clock this morning.
00:56:45I almost fell down.
00:56:46So, I tell you why.
00:56:47It was the hottest field I had ever walked on.
00:56:51And, of course, I didn't play a lot down here in Miami.
00:56:53We went to the Redskins, to the Dallas Cowboys on AstroTurf, and then in closed place.
00:56:58Listen, this was the hottest surface I ever walked out on as a player.
00:57:03Well, they've already confirmed in 30 years of play here, this is the second hottest day.
00:57:07This early September day, where the temperature on the field was well over 100 megat on the fly.
00:57:18One of his many valiant receptions of a punt to the 34-yard line.
00:57:23That takes it to 159.
00:57:25The two-minute warning.
00:57:27Miami by 14.
00:57:28Next Sunday, it's the Chiefs and the Raiders capping off a big week of NFL football next Sunday on NBC.
00:57:41Kansas City winning that one with the overtime interception by James Casey.
00:57:45We'll be at Arrowhead Stadium.
00:57:47I'm looking forward to sharing all the action with you.
00:57:49I had an opportunity to talk to Marty Schottenheimer a couple days ago, and he said, you know, I said,
00:57:53Houston, there's probably not going to be many people there.
00:57:56He said, Paul, I'm going to tell you, they are a very good football team.
00:57:59He said, everything we've seen about them, they, you know, they may be going someplace else,
00:58:03but they're still a good team.
00:58:04They're young, they're well coached, they run a defense that's hard to really get ready for.
00:58:08They do a lot of blitzing, and Kansas City was lucky to get out of there with a victory today.
00:58:13You bet.
00:58:14But so, looking at the loose defense, protecting against the pass, and it's almost intercepted by Sean Hill.
00:58:22Well, if Miami closes this out, it'll mean for Jimmy Johnson his ninth straight win going back to his Dallas days,
00:58:32the last time a Jimmy Johnson team lost in the NFL, we were there at Texas Stadium on Thanksgiving Day.
00:58:38The Leon Lett play in the snow that led to defeat to these Miami Dolphins.
00:58:46This would make it nine in a row for him.
00:58:54Lett saw his arm appeared to be hit as he released that one incomplete.
00:58:58At the conclusion of this game, plans are that we'll switch you out to the West Coast
00:59:04for the completion of the Chargers and Seahawks.
00:59:1029-7 San Diego at the point, and we'll update you as to how San Diego and Bobby Ross and Bobby Bethard's team
00:59:18got started today.
00:59:20And it's also had those Seahawks flapping their wings at the end of last year,
00:59:24but unable to come up with any significant points to that.
00:59:28Bledsoe breaks one tackle.
00:59:31Snow with a chance.
00:59:33No one open.
00:59:33Has to go out of bounds with him.
00:59:35Oh, there's going to be a penalty there.
00:59:37They really rode him unnecessarily, Robert Bailey, but no fly.
00:59:41Well, the guy that we're really looking at is that number 94 at the end of the play
00:59:45because he does get his hands on Bledsoe out of bounds.
00:59:50Fourth sack for Miami today.
00:59:53Watch here.
00:59:54What?
00:59:54See, 94.
00:59:55Now he pushes him there, but not enough.
00:59:58Bailey's there.
00:59:59That's a good play.
01:00:00Good call.
01:00:00Yeah, it's a tough call.
01:00:01I'll tell you one thing that Jimmy Johnson will be working on this week, guys.
01:00:04Those defensive backs catching the tip drill.
01:00:06Yeah, that's good.
01:00:07That's right.
01:00:08Because they have dropped a few interceptions.
01:00:11And then Bledsoe knocks it down on fourth down, which means Miami takes over on downs.
01:00:22If he'd have caught it, well, maybe not enough room to gain 10 yards anyway.
01:00:26No.
01:00:27If he'd have caught it and he'd have gotten killed.
01:00:28So he says, we got 15 more games.
01:00:32Let me just knock this baby down and get out of here.
01:00:34Well, there's a defensive lineman.
01:00:35You're going to see the ball get tipped up in the air.
01:00:37Again, a blitz by the Tim Bowens.
01:00:40Knocks it up in the air.
01:00:42And look if he catches it.
01:00:43Steve Inman.
01:00:45Wise decision by the quarterback.
01:00:47There will be another day.
01:00:48Well, watching in North Carolina, and I'm sure rooting for the Miami Dolphins, is the immortal Don Shuler.
01:00:54Well, 26 years ago, he took over in Miami, and President Nixon was the head of state.
01:01:00Neil Armstrong was about to walk, was walking on the moon, and Woodstock and the Maize and Mets were winning.
01:01:08Lou Alcindor, to beat Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, was at UCLA.
01:01:12And Paul McGuire was turning 50.
01:01:15Is that right?
01:01:15But Dan.
01:01:16Not only that, though, he was averaging 44 and a half yards a kick.
01:01:20Wow, really?
01:01:21With the Buffalo Bills.
01:01:22Yeah, I missed winning the punting championship that year by one-tenth of a yard.
01:01:28Dennis Partee, I think it was.
01:01:30How do you remember that?
01:01:31You good.
01:01:31I followed your career closely.
01:01:37You swore you would never lie to me.
01:01:39Second down at 11.
01:01:42Final minute, and with no timeouts left for the New England Patriots.
01:01:47A couple of kneel downs, and then we'll be switching you out to San Diego.
01:01:51And, of course, as part of that, also a recap of all the scores of this first Sunday in the National Football League.
01:01:57Well, final volleys here for Jimmy Johnson.
01:02:00High grades, indeed.
01:02:03I don't know.
01:02:04Could Jimmy Johnson even expect this team to come out here and play this well today?
01:02:08I thought they would play hard and be organized.
01:02:11But, honestly, I thought New England was the better team.
01:02:13But they showed more enthusiasm, and they made the plays when they counted.
01:02:17Abdul-Jabbar, 115 yards rushing to underline Johnson's season game plan.
01:02:24We're going to run it.
01:02:26He did, and he has his first win in Miami.
01:02:3024-10.
01:02:35The Dolphins beat the Patriots, and now let's go to San Diego.
01:02:39Jim Lampley, Bob Golick, the Chargers, and the Seahawks at the Murph.
01:02:44We're going to tell them how we're going to try to spoil Jimmy Johnson coming out part of the day.
01:02:54You all right?
01:02:54Yeah.
01:02:55Oh, you look thrilled.
01:02:56He must be running you.
01:02:57I heard he was running you.
01:02:58Yes, he is.
01:03:00What's going on?
01:03:01Jimmy Johnson stood at the center of the pro football universe.
01:03:07But on opening day, it was his team that grabbed the share of center state.
01:03:11Bledsoe, he's looking.
01:03:12He throws on the slant.
01:03:13Oh, Lewis Oliver picked it off.
01:03:15He's at the 40.
01:03:17The 50, down to the 40, cutting back at the 35.
01:03:20The 30, 25, down to the 15, and they get him at the 10-yard line.
01:03:25Sean Hill picked it up.
01:03:26He's in for a touchdown.
01:03:27Johnson's twin loves are a swift defense and a power running game.
01:03:33The Dolphins have not had a 1,000-yard rusher since 1978.
01:03:37And Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, number 33, became the first Miami rookie to rush for 100 yards since 1989.
01:03:47O.J. in motion right.
01:03:48Hand off.
01:03:49Kareem again off the right side.
01:03:50He's in.
01:03:51Touchdown, Dolphins.
01:03:52Another rookie, fullback Stanley Pritchett, number 36,
01:03:55paved the way for Abdul-Jabbar's first NFL touchdown.
01:04:00Hey, nice job.
01:04:01Nice way to run that football.
01:04:02A new star was born.
01:04:06And an old hero was reborn.
01:04:09That's right to pick up that first.
01:04:10Oh, we're all right.
01:04:12We're all right.
01:04:14The call came for a defense that was robbed of its marquee players by free agency.
01:04:20But the young unit responded, especially rookie Zach Thomas,
01:04:24number 54.
01:04:28Drew Budsoe was ineffective except for this touchdown to tight end Ben Coates.
01:04:37While the Patriots withered under the fierce South Florida sun,
01:04:41it was a day at the beach for the Dolphins.
01:04:43Nothing's wrong, but we want to, hey, we want touchdowns.
01:04:47That's how you blow them out.
01:04:48You get touchdowns.
01:04:49That's how you win the game.
01:04:50Come on, Barca!
01:04:51Let's go with that defense!
01:04:54Dan looking.
01:04:55Pumps once.
01:04:55Now tucks it down.
01:04:56Now throws.
01:04:57He's got Pritchett.
01:04:57He's at the five.
01:04:59He's down to the one.
01:04:59He fumbled the ball.
01:05:01Touchdown!
01:05:02If luck is the residue of grand design,
01:05:05Touchdown!
01:05:07I told you it was a touchdown!
01:05:09She's eating the runs.
01:05:10Well, Lewis really played an outstanding ball game.
01:05:12Besides, you know, getting a couple of turnovers,
01:05:15you know, like he did right here with the interception,
01:05:17he broke underneath the slant route.
01:05:18He anticipated it.
01:05:20In fact, he told Calvin Jackson before that,
01:05:23and J.B. Brown, he said,
01:05:24listen, I'm going to go for the pick.
01:05:25He went for the pick.
01:05:26Now, the only thing is,
01:05:27he fumbled the football when Megan catches up to him,
01:05:29but Sean Hill was right there to score the touchdown,
01:05:31and so Oliver really played well
01:05:34and really happy the way he performed.
01:05:36Zach Thomas, we've been talking about him all preseason.
01:05:38He certainly stepped up in his debut.
01:05:40Nine tackles in a sack.
01:05:41He was everywhere, Jimmy.
01:05:43Well, Tony, you can sum him up with one phrase.
01:05:46He is a football player.
01:05:48He knows how to play the game.
01:05:50He loves playing the game.
01:05:51He can play pass defense.
01:05:53He can make tackles.
01:05:54And a big hit.
01:05:54Oh, he made a big hit there on Jefferson.
01:05:57Knocked him out of the ball game,
01:05:58put him in the hospital,
01:05:59and actually caused a fumble there.
01:06:01And Zach's really a fine football player,
01:06:03and I think he's going to be a good player
01:06:05for a long time.
01:06:06They made big plays all day.
01:06:07You preach this.
01:06:08They made plays when they had to,
01:06:10coming up with a play in crucial times.
01:06:12Our guys were around the football,
01:06:14and they did make plays.
01:06:15You know, gave the offense a great field position,
01:06:17and it also stopped some drives,
01:06:18kept them from scoring.
01:06:19The only time they really scored
01:06:20is when they had a big kickoff return.
01:06:22All right, let's talk about the offensive side of the ball,
01:06:24and another great debut by the rookie,
01:06:25Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
01:06:26Well, we've got to talk about Jabbar
01:06:29because, you know,
01:06:29he had an impressive performance,
01:06:31115 yards,
01:06:32but we've also got to talk about
01:06:34Larry Bechtel and Richmond George,
01:06:37the offensive line coaches,
01:06:38and that offensive line.
01:06:39We challenged Keith Sims and Richmond Webb
01:06:41before the game.
01:06:42We said, hey,
01:06:42we're going to run right behind your big rear ends,
01:06:45so you better knock them off the ball.
01:06:46And they did.
01:06:47And they were in shock
01:06:48when the running plays kept coming in.
01:06:49Richmond and Keith kept looking at each other going,
01:06:51what is going on here?
01:06:52And the other guy, Stanley Pritchett,
01:06:54the other rookie,
01:06:55you know,
01:06:55the fullback in our offense,
01:06:57a lot of times he gets,
01:06:58you know,
01:06:59unrewarded,
01:07:00but he's rewarded right here
01:07:01with a big reception for 52 yards
01:07:03coming off the goal line.
01:07:04You know,
01:07:05Gary said,
01:07:05hey,
01:07:06we're going to run the off-tackle play.
01:07:07I said,
01:07:08no,
01:07:08throw the football.
01:07:09Macfell.
01:07:09Macfell makes a big first down
01:07:11going in there for the score.
01:07:13But we were able to throw the football
01:07:14all the way down the field,
01:07:15threw it to Pritchett.
01:07:16Now,
01:07:17he fumbled,
01:07:17and that's a rookie mistake,
01:07:18but Scott Miller was able
01:07:20to get the recovery
01:07:21before the touchdown.
01:07:22When you consider your running backs
01:07:23were responsible
01:07:23for nine of the 16 catches
01:07:25that were made,
01:07:26it's,
01:07:26you know,
01:07:2673 with that
01:07:27your premium incident.
01:07:28Now,
01:07:29look,
01:07:29we don't even get matching shoes.
01:07:30So how does that make you feel?
01:07:32No good.
01:07:32No good?
01:07:33Wide right?
01:07:33Oh,
01:07:34sorry.
01:07:34So I'm not some 6'5",
01:07:36280-pound stud.
01:07:37We still got to go out there
01:07:38with three seconds left
01:07:40and,
01:07:40bing,
01:07:41drill it right between the uprights.
01:07:42And look who makes
01:07:43the 11 o'clock news,
01:07:44the quarterback.
01:07:45I knew I should have been a jockey.
01:07:46The 96 season kicks off
01:07:48Labor Day weekend.
01:07:50Mr. Del Greco,
01:07:51you're next, please.
01:07:54There's a new sheriff in town.
01:07:57And his name is Jimmy Johnson.
01:08:05Go ahead and wrap his ass up
01:08:06and trip the motor.
01:08:07Let's go.
01:08:08Sure tackle him.
01:08:09Some camp under Jimmy Johnson
01:08:16is like receiving a letter
01:08:19from one of the armed services
01:08:21and saying you have to go to Kuwait
01:08:22and probably fight in a war
01:08:25or something,
01:08:25but we just don't have M-16s
01:08:27or AK-47s,
01:08:29but that's probably
01:08:30the closest thing to it.
01:08:31No question,
01:08:36this camp's been a little physical.
01:08:42Discipline.
01:08:43Discipline.
01:08:44You got to be disciplined enough
01:08:45to stay on sides.
01:08:46Discipline.
01:08:46Let's go.
01:08:48Johnson has made wholesale changes
01:08:50to the Dolphins' roster,
01:08:51but the overall
01:08:52won't be completed this season.
01:08:54Protect that football, Bernie.
01:08:56Coming in and trying to straighten out
01:08:58some of the salary cap problem,
01:08:59that doesn't happen overnight.
01:09:01You're able to bring in
01:09:02some players through free agency
01:09:03and through the draft
01:09:04that might help you,
01:09:06but that's a two- or three-year thing
01:09:08before you can get
01:09:09the type of team that you want.
01:09:10Is this the dressing room
01:09:12or is this the football field?
01:09:14They kept us late in the meeting.
01:09:16I remember what you said
01:09:17about coming out here
01:09:18one second late.
01:09:19Okay.
01:09:19All right.
01:09:20Well, the second thing,
01:09:21you didn't hear
01:09:22the second half of the speech.
01:09:23Coming out here half-dressed.
01:09:25What do you want this, Jimmy?
01:09:26In the den.
01:09:27Hey, where's my other one?
01:09:29Hey, careful.
01:09:32Does he really need
01:09:33all this goop?
01:09:33I guess.
01:09:34How about this hat and helmet?
01:09:36Keep the hat.
01:09:37Lose the helmet.
01:09:37Jimmy Johnson's made the move
01:09:39to the AFC
01:09:40and the NFL on NBC.
