I was at that game, and it is one of the most vivid memories of any Pats game ever for me. It was a miserably hot day and by the time the second half started fans in the stadium were starting to drop like flies. Another beer? No way, get me a water ...
The Pats couldn't get anything going on the ground. I think Antowain Smith was hurt so Kevin Faulk was the lone running back; Miami continually stuffed him for no gain. The Pats also had a bunch of injuries to their starters on defense. This was back when the Dolphins still dominated the Pats in Miami. Yes the Pats had won the Squish The Fish game, but the Dolphins almost always beat the Pats down there. I don't know if they had ever won in Miami early in the season (i.e., in hot weather, September or October) at that point in time. Realistically it did not look good for the Pats.
The Dolphins shared the stadium with the baseball team so the two field goals came from the dirt of the infield. One was shanked and another low, blocked by Richard Seymour.
Miami wasn't getting huge chunks of yardage but all game long they seemed to get just enough from Ricky Williams running the ball and passes to their tight end (Randy McMichael?). Somehow the Pats kept Miami from pulling away and then Brady hit David Givens with about a 30 yard TD pass to tie it in the second half. After that there were the two missed field goals and then overtime.
Brady was sacked and nearly lost the ball; the Pats had to punt but they got it right back on an interception. First play of the drive and Brady hits Troy Brown in stride to his left. Where the catch was made was directly below where I was sitting, I had a great view of that play. Game over, back to the bus, crank up the AC and now I was more than ready to pop open a cold beer.
