| In that game, yes the Giants were better than the Patriots. Overall, no, the '72 Dolphins and '07 Giants were not better teams. The Patriots won one more game in a row that season than Miami, if they played in 1972, they'd be 17-0 Super Bowl champions +1. As mentioned above, the Dolphins schedule was DREADFUL that season, while the Patriots destroyed the Steelers, Chargers, and Cowboys, and beat the Colts on the road, all division winners. They also if you remember defeated another playoff team, and eventual champion, Giants, on the road. |
