Last year, the New Orleans Saints and San Diego Chargers spent almost a week in London getting acclimated to the time change, but the Patriots and Buccaneers arrived late - much like the New York Giants and Miami Dolphins did two years ago. ``What we tried to do was to get all our work done in New England, all our preparation,'' Belichick said of the late arrival. ``We tried to cram three days ... into 2 1/2 (before arriving).''

DOLPHINS: After scoring a crucial home victory against the New York Jets last Monday night, the Miami Dolphins (2-3) had a week off to enjoy their two-game winning streak and think a bit about the next opponent on the schedule. With an emphasis on the latter, presumably, since the next opponent is the 5-0 New Orleans Saints. The Saints will travel to Miami f |

DAVIE, Fla. (AP) -A gimmick? Nonsense? The Miami Dolphins don't like the way their wildcat is being belittled. Triggerman Ronnie Brown had a suggestion Wednesday for those who disparage the funky formation: Just stop it and the Dolphins will move on to something else. The New York Jets were less than gracious after they failed to tame the wildcat Monday night in a 31-27 loss at Miami. The Dolphins gained 110 yards with the formation, including 2 on their final play for the winning score with 6 seconds |

He, too, felt a longing to try the NFL and took over the Miami Dolphins in 2005. But after going 6-10 in 2006 - Saban's only losing season as a head coach - he returned to college with the Crimson Tide. Saban's team was No. 1 in the country for much last season and is again in the running for a national title. ``I p |

NEW YORK (AP) -Rex Ryan arrived back at the New York Jets facility early Tuesday morning and never went home. The Jets coach was too angry about how his defense allowed the Miami Dolphins to pull one out against it Monday night. ``It absolutely was a humbling experience,'' Ryan said of his team's 31-27 loss at Miami. New York's defense had given up three touchdowns in the first four games, but allowed three in the fourth quarter against Miami and blew three leads in the second half. Miami did it wi |

DAVIE, Fla. (AP) -Chad Henne's team had the ball near midfield trailing late in the game when he dug into the playground playbook, wound up and heaved the ball toward the end zone. It was the sort of pass where Miami Dolphins quarterbacks have long come up short - a throw designed to stretch a defense, redefine an offense and turn around a game. Henne's toss hit Ted Ginn Jr. in stride, two steps behind the New York Jets' secondary near the goal line. Suddenly the Dolphins had a touchdown, and a keeper |

Seau first retired in August 2006 after 13 seasons with the San Diego Chargers and three with the Miami Dolphins. ``I'm not retiring. I am graduating. Today is my graduation day,'' he said then. ``Retirement means that you'll just go ahead and live on your laurels and surf all day in Oceanside (Calif.). It ain't going to happen.''

| Monday night, the New York Jets were left accentuating the negative. On a night in which wide receiver Braylon Edwards made a spectacular debut with the team, Gang Green was let down in its 31-27 loss by a defense that had major trouble getting the Miami Dolphins off the field. The attacking nature of the Jets' defense through the first four weeks was marginalized by the Dolphins' ability to gain big chunks of yards in the running game, in turn easing the pressure on Miami quarterback Chad Henne, who had a s |
