It has been a successful start to the pre-season for both sides as they won the first two games.

The Jets are coming off a thumping win against the Falcons. The biggest positive for the Jets is that Mike White is doing a decent job in the absence of Joe Flacco. White finished with 12 of 17, covering 90 yards. The Giants, on the other hand, won an exciting last game against the Bengals. It was a stellar performance from Davis Webb as he secured 22 of 27 for 204 yards. His 15 yards touchdown pass to Alex Bachman turned out to be the biggest factor that separated the two teams. It will be interesting to see which side will get its third straight pre-season win in the Sunday’s clash.
