Game Notes:
"It was a great day for a football game if you were lucky enough to have a boyfriend who has season tickets to the Jets game. Getting a foot in the door for a Giants fan was the big battle today, but if you managed it, it paid off bigtime. The temperature was in the mid 60's and if you could ignore all the green stuff around you and sitting in a different area then you usually occupy, you were home free (pardon the pun) to enjoy a really good Giants game.
The Jets came ready to play stopping the Giants cold on the opening drive, and they scored a touchdown on theirs
to make the score Jets 7-0. Things could have turned out worse for the Giants, but Brandon Short was all over the Jets causing fumbles and turnovers and he had one sack. The Giants should have put this one away in the fourth quarter when they went up by two touchdowns after having Kerry Collins rush the ball across the goal for the two point conversion.
Of course they made you sweat the outcome and the game ran way late into overtime and all when it shouldn't have had to, but admit it, you had a great time even with all those Jet fans around, thanks to the way it turned out."


Game Notes:
"You want football, pick another team. You want Hollywood football movie type entertainment tune into the Giants. They are the NFL's answer to ESPN's entertainment show 'Playmakers', and all the action is real. The Giants should have had this game won, up 14 big points in the fourth quarter, but you know the routine if you're a Giants fan. They let the other team, that would be the Jets this time, catch up in the fourth quarter.
Fassel kind of helped the drama along. When the Giants had a first down with 29 seconds left in the fourth quarter at their own 25 yard line, instead of taking a shot or two for a big yardage play downfield and maybe a last chance field goal, he had Collins take a knee. That sent the game into overtime. The Giants won the coin toss, got the ball, and moved nicely downfield. Things were looking pretty good until Brett Conway missed a 39 yard field goal.
It was back and forth until the Giants last drive when Tiki Barber ran the ball ten yards to the Jets 11 for a first down. Jim Fassel, anxious to keep you on the edge of your seat, didn't have Collins spike the ball to stop the clock. Instead, with time running out it looked like a fire drill as the field goal unit ran onto the field. This time Brett Conway made the 29 yard field goal attempt and Fassel doesn't have to answer as many post game embarrassing questions, just a few."

Notes:
Giants Shaun Williams and Ralph Brown had interceptions for the Giants.

Chad Pennington was the 51st different QB sacked by Michael Strahan in his 11 years.

Giants were 0-6 on 3rd down plays in the first half.

It was the first time this season the Giants allowed a touchdown on an opposing team's opening possession.

This is the first time since 1981 the Giants have played three OT games in one season.

Jim Fassel's 58th regular-season victory moved him ahead of Allie Sherman into third place on the Giants' career list.

The most points allowed by a Fassel team in a win is 28, both by the Jets: 41-28 in 1999 and 31-28.

This was the sixth time in eight games that the Jets scored on their opening drives this year.

Jets Curtis Martin rushed for 108 yards, the first back to get over 100 yards against the Giants this season.
