FOXBORO -- Ronnie Brown scored his third touchdown of the game -- and second after taking a direct snap from center -- to give the double-digit underdog Dolphins a stunning, 21-6 lead over New England with 59 seconds left in the first half. The innovative play capped a 77-yard drive.

Miami's first two TD drives were 74 and 79 yards, as the Dolphins consistently have carved up New England's befuddled defense.

The Patriots seemingly have no clue how to stop Brown when he takes a direct snap.

The Pats left the field at halftime to a chorus of boos from frustrated fans.
