November 3, 1985 In a portent of the 1985 AFC Championship Game between the two teams ten weeks later, the Patriots devour the Dolphins on the ground in a gritty 17-13 comeback win in rainy Foxboro. Trailing 13-3 after three quarters, Steve Grogan orchestrates two long ball-control scoring drives. The first touchdown coming on Grogan's gutsy fourth down flea-flicker to Greg Hawthorne, then calling his own number on a QB keeper for the game-winning score.

I was there. I only remember this play (I was young) and my father heckling Jim McMahon for the next 3 hours.
