The Jets came into MetLife stadium away instead of home for once against their home town rival Giants. Many people were calling it the battle of New York or the MetLife Bowl, but either way the Jets came out victorious. It was not a pretty win, but it got it done. Both of these teams came into the game knowing it would be the most important game of the season not only because they were rivals, but because they were both in playoff contention and needed this win to get a spot in the playoffs. The Jets entered the game without two of their star players this year, cornerbacks Marcus Williams who is leading the league in interceptions and their legend lock down corner Darrelle Revis. What everyone wanted to watch was the key matchup of Odell Beckham Jr. vs Darrelle Revis, but it could not happen. The Jets started off the game very ugly as they usually do if you're a Jets fan you know the feeling. The Jets were leading 3-0, then on a horribly punt covered play Duane Harris returned it 80 yards to the house making the game 7-3. Josh Brown kicked a field goal and Odell Beckham Jr. broke a tackle and had a 72 yard touchdown putting the Jets in a bad place down 17-3. Fitzpatrick finally got some protection on one of the final drives of the half and drove it down to the red zone leading to a beautiful Bilal Powell screen pass touchdown. The final drive of the half Will Tye had a 45 yard reception and led to another Josh Brown field goal making it 20-10 at half and leaving me very disappointed.
And so the second half begins with a Giants 3 and out a Jets three and out then the Giants killing 8 minute drive into the 4th quarter. During this 8 minute drive the Jets defense continually stopped them, gave up flags leading them right to the red zone. Tom Coughlin makes one of the worst calls I've seen all year and goes for it up 10 on 4th down instead of kicking a gimme field goal. This led to a HUGE Rontez Miles interception sparking the Jets to a drive down field that went for a field goal. The Jets stopped them at about the 2 minute warning without using any timeouts and had all 3 for their final drive in which they tied it up with a jump ball Brandon Marshall touch down his 9th of the season, he also achieved 1,000 yards on the season this week.
In over time the Jets got the ball first drove down kicked a field goal, Odell kicks a dropped ball after the play, gets a flag, jets stop Giants in 3 downs. Josh Brown misses 48 yard field goal his first miss of the year and the Jets win in an amazing comeback game.
