It's a (Pre) Christmas Miracle

The Dolphins won their first game since last year.

In a Christmas miracle reminiscent of Jimmy Steward (George Bailey) finding out what life would have been like if he had never been born, in It's a Wonderful Life, or, Kris Kringle receiving tons of mail addressed to Santa Claus in Miracle on 34th Street, this is a miracle of Hollywood proportions. Baltimore Ravens kicker Matt Stover, who had been a perfect five for five in overtime kicks, missed wide left in sudden death overtime. The Dolphins then marched down the field and score a touchdown, bringing to an end the speculation about the only football franchise to have a perfect season (1972) going perfect in other direction.

Christmas miracles continue.
