Here we go, the NFL playoffs are finally here. Find out how the Giants stack up to the rest of the league's best in Joe's weekly rankings.
Neil Keefe needs a miracle this Sunday to finish the regular season picks season at .500. It's nearly impossible for him to come back, but that isn't stopping him from picking the Week 17 games and trying to figure out where the Giants and Jets will end up.
Neil Keefe makes his Week 16 picks and asks for the same two things he asked for last Christmas. And then of course there's Giants-Jets...
You won't find any local teams in Joe's Top 10, but the season isn't over yet.
Neil Keefe wants you to forget about what happened with last week's picks as he picks the Week 15 games in the NFL, and looks ahead to the home stretch in the league and a big weekend for New York's two teams.
The Jets continue their steady climb, but have the Giants finally resurfaced on Joe B's Top Ten?
The Giants shouldn't be in this spot, but they are. They've lost four games in a row as part of their annual second-half collapse.
They might not own a playoff spot (right now), but look who's back in Joe B's Top Ten!
The problem with the Giants' loss to the Saints is that as bad as it was on Monday (and it was bad), there's a chance it's going to get a whole lot worse this Sunday and possibly the next Sunday too. Neil Keefe picks the Week 13 games, but he only has faith in one of the New York teams this Sunday.
After a second straight bad loss, the Giants have slipped off Joe B's Top Ten. But wait, what's this? An NFC East rival has cracked the list.
Rex Ryan's mouth really cost him this time. "Obviously, it was a mistake that I made and I'm responsible for my actions," he said Monday.
Justin Tuck matter-of- factly warned an historic second-half collapse could be on the horizon -- and then Antrel Rolle called out everyone in the Giants organization.
Jets coach Rex Ryan has been fined $75,000 by the NFL for using profanity while angrily responding to a fan at at halftime of the team's 37-16 loss to the Patriots in Week 10.
Moving his NFL picks from Thursday to Friday didn't work out well for Neil Keefe. But if starting pitchers can cite an extra day of rest between starts as their reason for failing then Neil can certainly use an extra day between picks as a reason for his struggles.
Jets head coach Rex Ryan was right earlier this week. Winning the AFC East is doubtful.
Surprise, surprise. Green Bay is still atop Benigno's Top 10 -- but how about those Texans?
The Jets won't have much time to dwell on their loss to the Patriots. They have a short turnaround with a game at Denver against the unpredictable Tim Tebow on Thursday night, and some players thought that might be exactly what they need.
Rex Ryan's emotions got the best of him - again. "I was full of emotion and just popped off," said the Jets' outspoken coach.
This could have been a shining moment against the Patriots. Instead, like we've seen over and over with these Jets, they let it -- and the chase for the AFC East title -- slip away.
If you woke up Monday morning utterly disgusted, you had every right. Jets Nation was taken to the woodshed Sunday night in every possible way. A superior football mind did a number on the brash and the bovine.
Fresh off the last night's dismantling of the Jets, Patriots head coach Bill Belichick joined Joe and Evan to talk about the game.
Here's a guarantee that I feel pretty good about: The Jets will not be AFC East Champions. There will be no changing of the guard. For the Jets to make the playoffs, they will have to go through their familiar route of getting a wild card spot.
With everything to gain or lose, the Jets chose the latter. Last night wasn't about tactics; it was about temerity. The Patriots wanted it more. Much more. There's no other way to explain the score despite the disparity in talent.
Tom Brady has thrown for at least 300 yards for the 40th time in a regular-season game, breaking a tie with Hall of Famer Joe Montana for eighth on the NFL's list.
Tom Brady threw three touchdown passes, in a convincing 37-16 victory over the New York Jets on Sunday night.
