VIDEO: A Look Back At The Patriots 2003 Overtime Win In Miami 17 Years Later

Heading into week seven of the 2003 season, the New England Patriots were neck and neck with the Miami Dolphins for first place in the AFC East.

At the time, the Patriots had lost six straight in Miami and appeared headed to another loss until Richard Seymour blocked a 35-yard field goal by Olindo Mare at the two-minute warning and the game would go to overtime tied at 13.

In overtime, the Dolphins again had a chance to win with a field goal, but Mare missed from 35 for a second time after failing to plant his foot on the infield dirt, which existed on the Miami field due to the Florida Marlins playing in the World Series at the same time.
