    The most important thing to remember in Joe Judge’s debut

    This is only a first Judgment Day for Joe Judge. Let us not forget that Bill Parcells lost his home opener and Ray Handley won his. Judge has a five-year contract and an ownership starving for stability and continuity — and he will coach here for a long time, starting Monday night against the Steelers …

    Joe Judge can’t fix Giants alone

    It is going to take all of them. Every single one. Man-for-man, the Giants do not stack up. Not Monday night in the season opener against the Steelers at empty MetLife Stadium. Probably not the next week in Chicago, or the next week when the 49ers come to town or the next week in Los …

    Sam Darnold looks lost in alarming Jets performance

    When Bills 27, Jets 17 was mercifully over, Sam Darnold did what franchise quarterbacks old and young are supposed to do, even on a day when everyone around him, starting right from the start with Adam Gase, was seeing ghosts. But still, it was 21-3 at the half and Darnold’s lack of poise and accuracy, …

    Jets report card: This was ugly in every way

    Grading the Jets after their 27-17 loss to the Bills on Sunday. Offense The Jets new-look offense looked an awful lot like their old-look offense. Adam Gase’s unit had six three-and-outs, including their first three drives. They managed just 254 total yards and only 53 plays. QB Sam Darnold (15 of 35, 215 yards, 1 TD, …

    Islanders on brink of elimination after Game 4 loss to Lightning

    It was a chance to reset the series, make up for a stiff start and change the dynamic of the competition. But instead the Islanders are now staring at a daunting uphill battle to have any chance of advancing to the Stanley Cup finals after the Lightning took a 4-1 win in Game 4 and …
