Dolphins’ coach Mike McDaniel’s reaction to the Patriots’ field goal block: Though the game ended in defeat for the Patriots, one bright spot came from an unexpected place on Sunday.
New England special teams gunner Brenden Schooler used a running start prior to blocking a Dolphins field goal attempt during the third quarter. He sprinted parallel to the line of scrimmage, timing the snap perfectly before he ran around to make a play.
Following the game, Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel acknowledged that, despite the moment coming against Miami, he admired the design and execution from Bill Belichick’s team.
