Leave it to Bill Belichick to give NFL fans a call to be in awe of, as evidenced by the Patriots coach’s decision to deploy a never-before-seen special teams formation against the Dolphins on Sunday night.
With the Dolphins up, 17–3, in the third quarter, kicker Jason Sanders looked to boost the lead with a 49-yard field goal attempt from New England’s 31-yard line. As Miami prepared to snap the ball, Belichick elected to send safety and budding special teams ace Brenden Schooler in motion to get a running start in an attempt to block the kick.
