epitomizes the Big Blue preseason more than ahometown clash against the Jets. The East Rutherford natives squared off Friday night with plenty to prove on both ends. Luckily Womens Janoris Jenkins Jersey , the Giants would be the victors with a 22-16 win. Hometown hostilityVincent Carchietta-USA TODAY SportsIs there anything better than some early tension between two bitter rivals? The Giants and Jets both came out swinging in a tight first half in favor of the G-Men.Happy to be herePhoto by Jeff Zelevansky/Getty ImagesStill no OBJ appearance for Giants fans in Week 3 despite him being dressed for warm ups. However, we can easily assume why he’s in a cheery mood with rumors swirling about his record-breaking contract being finalized. Hug it outPhoto by Jeff Zelevansky/Getty ImagesHunter Sharp took advantage of some suspect punt coverage by the Jets early in the first quarter to score the Giants’ first touchdown of the night. The 55-yard sprint was enough to tie the game at 7-7.Send itVincent Carchietta-USA TODAY SportsWhile this was Eli Manning’s last game action of the preseason, that didn't stop him from slinging it all over the field in the first half. Manning threw a strong 17-for-23 on his passes for 188 yards but no touchdowns.Can’t touch thisPhoto by Jeff Zelevansky/Getty ImagesWith 7 receptions for 78 receiving yards, Sterling Shepard was Manning’s go to target in the first half. Slipping in and out of the Jets’ secondary, Shepard capped off his performance with a 30-yard reception in the second quarter.Going deepVincent Carchietta-USA TODAY SportsA significant amount of deep shots were called on offense, one of them being a 47-yard grab by Alonzo Russell. If the play calling was indicative of what is to come Womens Landon Collins Jersey , expect Pat Shurmur to stretch the field in 2018. Nothing but greenVincent Carchietta-USA TODAY SportsDespite another uninspiring rushing performance as a team, Jhurrell Pressley had a big night. Finishing with 13 carries for 72 yards, Pressley averaged 5.7 yards per carry. As more backup running backs shine, Jonathan Stewart’s case to stay is slowly diminishing. Brick wallPhoto by Jeff Zelevansky/Getty ImagesThe Big Blue defense came to play once again. On the night they held the Jets to just 240 total yards of offense and 66 rushing yards.Another oneVincent Carchietta-USA TODAY SportsTwo straight preseason wins for the Giants might be enough to boost the confidence of fans. With the offense moving more efficiently and the defense stonewalling opponents, only time will tell if this recent success will correlate to the regular season. Typical New England Patriots.After he had done a good job protecting the blind side of Tom Brady for seven season, the Patriots refused to get into a bidding war for left tackle Nate Solder. Instead Womens Curtis Riley Jersey , they let him hit the open market where Solder, of course, cashed in via a four-year, $62.5 million deal ($34.8 million guaranteed) from the New York Giants.The Patriots? They did another very Patriot-like thing, trading for an inexpensive player who had played only three games at left tackle in three seasons to take Solder’s place.A third-round pick was the price for getting right tackle Trent Brown from the San Francisco 49ers. New England installed Brown and his $1.907 million salary at left tackle, where he made them forget all about Solder.Thing is Womens Jon Halapio Jersey , the 25-year-old Brown can be an unrestricted free agent in March and the Patriots aren’t in the habit of paying big money to keep players. They know that somehow they always manage to find capable replacements, so why would they?The basicsAge: 26 in AprilExperience: 4 seasonsHeight: 6-foot-8 | Weight: 380Pro Football Focus: Overall grade (70.6) | Pass blocking (70.9) | Run blocking (64.6) | 3 sacks and 37 pressures allowedPFF ranked Brown No. 26 on its list of the top 50 available free agents. Their endorsement wasn’t exactly a glowing one:The skinny Before being acquired by the Patriots, Brown had developed a reputation with the San Francisco 49ers for not having a tremendous work ethic.Question is, when people come to play the mammoth Brown in 2019, will he be with New England or elsewhere? That might come down to whether the Patriots are willing to do something they don’t often do — pay big money to keep a player off the market.If he hits the market, could he be in play for the Giants? The Giants have Solder at left tackle http://www.newyorkgiantsteamonline.com/b.j.-hill-jersey , so that might depend on whether Brown is OK with going back to the right side. And whether the Giants are willing to pay him left tackle money to do so.Honestly, I believe the possibility of Brown ending up with the Giants is a slim one. Still, it’s worth discussing.
