Has any team ever won a game while being dominated in time of possesion like the Colts have been tonight? The game isn't over and the Dolphins may still win, but I find it amazing that a team can be dominated in the time of possession category like the Colts have been tonight and still have the lead with only 3 minutes to go. This game has been very interesting to say the least.
Phins-Colts thought.

BTW, did you hear that stat? That was the smallest amount of time a team has had the ball and won the game.
I think we've seen teams hold the ball for just 20 minutes or 25 minutes and win. That isn't common, but I wouldn't call it rare. However, the 'phins held the ball more than 3 times longer than the Colts. THAT, is wild.

If you have a quick strike offense, it's not uncommon to lose time of possession but still dominate a game.
I think we lost time of possession to SELA in a 46 point win, so I know it's not a very meaningful stat.
However, that's still sick to have the ball for less than 1 quarter and still win. I'd be curious to know how often a team has fewer than 15 minutes of possession period. Obviously they say a team has never done that and won, but I'd bet it's rare that a team has the ball for that little time in any game.
