COVID-19 definitely played a factor in both team\u2019s poor starts because there were no exhibition games and the training season was cut short; it&#8217;s expected that the teams would be a little rusty, but not this rusty. It really is interesting to watch a game and hear the same audience you hear when playing Madden. I appreciate that the NFL is trying to make watching the game more exciting with the fake audio, but it feels like a missed opportunity to hear everything the coaches and players are saying to each other.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/oceansideschools.org\/siderpress.oceansideschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/darnold.jpg?resize=375%2C210&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-65\" width=\"375\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/siderpress.oceansideschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/darnold.jpg?w=660&amp;ssl=1 660w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/siderpress.oceansideschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/darnold.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px\" \/><figcaption>Darnold and the Jets are 0-7 on the year.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The one thing the Giants and Jets are both good at is losing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the Giants at 1-6&nbsp; and the Jets winless at 0-7, it\u2019s looking like a tough year for both teams. It appears the Giants&#8217; opponents can turn on their offenses with a flip of a switch, and although the Jets put up some points and at times can move the ball, they are very inconsistent. With the Giants having a quarterback with more fumbles than games played, how could they possibly get any worse at this point? They can only get better, right? It&#8217;s almost a good thing that there are no fans in attendance because there would probably be a lot of empty seats at MetLife stadium anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Mack Olmsted The Giants and Jets are back with the live audiences they deserve: no one.&nbsp; You would think with an empty stadium the teams would have more time to focus and perform at their best, but that\u2019s not the case.
