The Patriots, 15-0, will visit the New York Giants (10-5) today in an effort to complete a perfect campaign, the first since the league adopted a 16-game schedule in 1978.

The Dolphins went 14-0 during the season 35 years ago then won two playoff games and the Super Bowl to complete the only perfect run in the modern era of American football.
