The New Orleans Saints vs. the Miami Dolphins wasn’t considered one of the most attractive games of Week 13 of the 2025 NFL season. However, the two teams entered the field with a strong desire to beat each other.
De’Von Achane had a fast start to the game, rushing for 29 yards to the end zone to give the Dolphins a 7-0 lead after a Riley Patterson extra point. The first play of the Dolphins’ third drive also included Achane, but his run wasn’t as successful.
Saints’ linebacker Danny Stutsman stopped Achane before he even could cross the scrimmage line, bringing him down with a spear tackle, famously used in pro wrestling by legends such as Goldberg, Edge and Roman Reigns.
The clip of the play racked up over 100K views in 30 minutes, gathering a lot of fans in the comments. Many compared Stutsman’s move to the tackles they used to watch in the ring.
The Dolphins punted the ball in the end, after Cam Jordan sacked Tua Tagovailoa for a 4-yard loss.
Miami would score on the next drive with Riley Patterson’s 39-yard field goal at 14:09 in the second quarter. Patterson would add three more points with a 25-yard field goal with 6:07 left.
At halftime, Achane finished with 13 carries for 88 yards and one touchdown. Stutsman recorded just one tackle, and it was one of the best of the seasons.
