Around the League
1997 New England Patriots (10-6, 4-2) at 1972 Miami Dolphins (14-0*, 5-1)
Drew Bledsoe and the Patriots take advantage of penalties and turnovers and beat the ’72 Dolphins 19-10. RB Curtis Martin was POG with 97 yards and 1 td. The Perfect Season Dolphins are now tied for third place with these Patriots behind the ’75 Cowboys (10-5**, 6-1) and the ’77 Patriots (9-5^, 6-2).

1999 Dallas Cowboys (8-8, 5-1) at 1985 Chicago Bears (15-1, 4-2)
Two teams battling for first place. Walter Payton vs. Emmitt Smith. Troy Aikman vs. Jim McMahon. This game had the look of a classic. However, Da Bears rolled past the Cowboys rather easily in a 30-17 win. Sweetness was POG with 181 yards and 1 td. Smith had a good game as well (114 yards, 1 td). The difference in the game was the play of the quarterbacks. Aikman (10-14 – 90 yards – 1 int). McMahon (15-24 – 194 yards – 2 td – 1 int).

2013 Indianapolis Colts ( , 2-4) at 1960 Philadelphia Eagles (, 1-5)
Indy puts on an amazing display of offense hitting the endzone 11 times in a huge 77-14 drubbing of the Eagles. Trent Richardson had 129 yards and 4 td’s. Donald Brown had 118 yards and 2 td’s. Andrew Luck threw for 201 and 3td’s. Wow.

1999 Minnesota Vikings (10-6, 2-4) at 1999 Baltimore Ravens (8-8^, 7-0)
The ’99 Ravens did not make the playoffs in real life, but are having a great run in the Ultimate League. They complete a perfect half-season by beating the Vikings 19-13. No one Ravens player had a particularly great game. In fact, the POG was Cris Carter of the Vikings (88 yards, 1 td).
