The sibling rivalry between the New York Jets and New York Giants took place on Sun. October 29, at MetLife Stadium. The end result was a 13-10 overtime victory for the Jets in a game that was slow and sloppy at times. It would be a brutal blow to the Giants, who were in the lead most of the way, as their season gets more complicated. Brutal first half Zach Wilson started under center for the Jets, and Tyrod Taylor, who was filling in for the injured Daniel Jones, started for the Giants. The Giants got the board first on a 31-year kick from Graham Cano. Both teams would go back and forth with the ball for over the next ten minutes until, with 1:18 left in the first quarter, Wilson connected with running back Breece Hall, who ran 50 yards into the endzone to give the Jets the lead. It was a big thrill for Jets fans to see Hall at his best after missing most of his rookie season last year with a torn ACL. The second quarter was a slow and boring pace of the game that didn t see either team score. However, things would get worse for the Giants midway through the quarter. With 7:41 left in the half, Taylor fumbled an attempted pass but caught it before he was tackled and brought down by C.J. Mosley. Taylor stayed on the ground writhing in pain while trainers attended to him before he got up, clutching his ribs and heading into the locker room. With Taylor ruled out, the Giants looked to undrafted rookie Tommy DeVito to get the offense going. The first half of the game ended with the Jets leading 7-3, with both points coming in the first quarter. Despite the low score, both teams combined for 15 punts on 20 possessions, the most in the half of an NFL game since 2000....Read more
