Patriots, Patriots, everywhere

As the NFL's New England Patriots attempt to finish the regular season Saturday as the first team ever with a 16-0 record, the game may appear to be everywhere you turn.

It almost is.

CBS and NBC will carry the NFL Network feed in the first simultaneously broadcast football game since the 1967 Super Bowl.

"We have taken this extraordinary step because it is in the best interest of our fans," NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement, citing the "potentially historic" element of the game.

The Patriots will play the New York Giants on Saturday after beating the Miami Dolphins earlier this week, leaving it with a perfect 15-0 record in the season to date.
