It's the only time the rivals will meet this year unless they qualify for the cold-weather Super Bowl here in February. The way the Jets and Giants played, it's highly unlikely.

Billy Cundiff won the game with a 32-yard field goal with 8:04 left in overtime. His first attempt from 40 yards missed, but Giants coach Tom Coughlin had called time out. The Jets ran two plays and Cundiff was good the second time.
"As long as Rex and the committee are evaluating us, I think I have a shot," said Smith, who stepped out of the end zone in the fourth quarter and gave the Giants a safety. "As I stated,Cheap NFL Jerseys, I don't think one game, one practice or one day will tell you the type of quarterback I am."
"We're going to compete all the way through,Custom Indiana Pacers Jerseys," Ryan said when asked whether Smith was his No. 1 at this point.
