All of this is fun. Let’s call it like it is: Giants-Jets is fun. All of this is cool. Let’s be very honest: Jets-Giants is cool.

Giants found way to survive and advance with their season on the lineAll of the pomp and all of the circumstance will be perfectly lovely accoutrements to the afternoon in North Jersey. There will be lots of green jerseys interspersed with a preponderance of blue jerseys. There will be scads of trash-talk starting in the parking lot, moving into the stadium, probably lingering all the way to the walk back afterward.All of this is cool. Let’s be very honest: Jets-Giants is cool.

And the last time was a case-study in how all of the stuff surrounding the game can carry the game. The last time was Nov. 10, 2019, and the Jets entered the game 1-7 and the Giants came in at 2-7. Both seasons were already up in smoke. The Jets raced to a 14-0 lead thenafter the Giants had roared back for a 27-21 lead, but even Jets fans weren’t all that chatty that day.

If the Giants win, they’re 3-5 and look up to see a spate of awfully winnable games ahead of them. If they lose … well, 2-6 is a dark place, no matter how optimistically you want to spin it. Said Giants coach Brian Daboll: “I’ve got a tremendous amount of respect for Coach Saleh. I understand the history behind . This is a good team that’s playing well, that just beat Philadelphia. They’re off their bye week. So, that’s really where my focus is, just getting onto the tape and kind of turning the page here from the last week.”
