You mean when John Riggins beat the Dolphins in 83?
If so I remember that game well. I was a Dolphins fan at the time and Riggins performance was so incredible it became funny. The Dolphins knew he was going to get the ball and run up the middle but he carried it for 4-7 yards every single time. Jeez it was unreal.
