New England Patriots are a perfect 16-0

This evening I had the pleasure of watching the play-by-play coverage of the New England Patriots make history at the Meadowlands in New Jersey, as the Pats defeated the New York Giants 38-35.

The Giants gave the Patriots a spirited battle--at one time they held a 12-point lead, the largest any team held over them this year.

The Miami Dolphins were the last team to go undefeated in a season. Two teams had performed the feat earlier, the 1934 and 1942 Chicago Bears, but only the Dolphins were able to move on to win the league championship.

That's what the Patriots need to do if they expect anyone to rank them as one of the NFL's greatest teams.
