Either the Giants or Jets would play at 1 and one would play at 4. Every single week, but no more.
There was a moment, right around 1:15 p.m. or so last Sunday, when I could have sworn that the Vikings caused Daniel Jones to commit a big fumble and that the Commanders had picked off a Mike White pass. Which was odd because the Giants were really playing Washington and the Jets were actually playing Minnesota.
Still, one would play at 1 and one would play at 4. Every single week. There were some grim years when that meant six solid hours of nothing but brutal football, and only occasionally was there a national doubleheader paired against the late game. It’s probably why “MNF” became instantly popular in New York. And why the Thanksgiving Day games were like tonic for the football soul.
Of course, this year the Jets and the Giants flipped the script somewhat unexpectedly. They are both good: the Giants 7-4-1 heading into their home game Sunday with the Eagles and the Jets 7-5 as they head to play Buffalo. Both of those games will kick off within seconds of each other, the same way the Commanders-Giants and Jets-Vikings games did last week.
But if you’re someone like me who likes to toggle between the two games … well, your mind plays tricks on you sometimes. Sunday you may wonder why the Jets simply can’t tackle Jalen Hurts, or be pleasantly surprised when your eyes play tricks on you and Daniel Jones slices through the Bills’ defense for a big pickup … until you recalibrate.Vac’s Whacks
