Wouldn't it be funny if the Dolphins beat the Patriots?

Just kidding, I know that question has been asked a million times. My real question is, why do some players have a green dot on their helmet?

    yes, just like 33 seconds ago it still would be funny if the Dolphins beat the Patriots.

    someone needs to put a green dot up your *** knock it off.

    J/K

    I guess sarcasm doesn't translate well since everyone really answered your green dot question.

    By rules only so many players on the field can have a speaker in there helmet to hear the coaches. They put the green dot on the helmets so the refs know who has them.

    And yes it would be funny if the Dolphins beat the Patriots

    QB's have a radio receiver in their helmets. NFL rules specify that only one of those helmets can be on the field of play at any time. The rule also specifies that the helmet with the receiver must have a green dot on the back of it so that the Ref's can see how many are on the field.

    Miami ruined Chicago's perfect season in the mid 80's. But they had Marino as QB and they had won a few games so that was a little different.

    ya that's just not gonna happen, Pats could win with 2nd string or 3rd stringers in.

    Green Dot question has been asked a million times, I think I asked it once myself. it denotes the person who is legally mic-ed and/or has a headset in his helmet and is in communication with the coach

    they have a microphone in their helmet. i think there is a rule about how many players on the field may have one, therefore the green dot identifies them.

    If the Dolphins' perfect season is so "Holier-than-thou-art"

    then the Dolphins will beat the Pats this week.

    But, I hate the Dolphins just less than I hate the Raiders.

    Go Pat's

    Yes it would be very funny

    Just as funny as the Steelers only putting up 3 points against them...

    If not for the Steelers kicker they would be 7 - 6 and out of the playoff hunt

    Shows which helmet has the radio headset. Everybody knows that only the QB has it any way. I think it's pointless.

    I think it would be absolutely hysterical. An 0-13 team beating 13-0 team.
