The NFL released its 2011 schedules inspite of the fact that the entire league is on shut down, and that these games may not be played at all.
There were rumors that the Giants and Jets would open the season against each other on the 10th anniversary of September 11, but alas, the league thought differently.
For the third time in the last four seasons, the Giants will open up with the Redskins. (Can't the NFL think of a different opponent for Big Blue on Opening Day). Meanwhile, the Jets will play the Cowboys on Opening day on Sunday Night Football.
The Giants will play their first home game in week two on Monday Night, against oddly enough, the St. Louis Rams. Why the NFL feels the nation wants to see the Rams on Monday Night is beyond me, but that's the way it goes.
The Jets have night games against the Ravens, and Patriots on Sunday Night, a Monday Nighter that nobody wants to see against the Dolphins, and a bruttle mid-week night game against the Broncos on Thursday Night.
The Jets also have to play a brutal three game road trip against the Raiders, Ravens and Patriots that takes place in mid October which is bound to hurt them at some point.
The Jets and Giants will play their highly anticipated football game against one another on Christmas Eve at 1:00 on FOX.
The Jets end the season on New Year's Day at Miami, while the Giants will play host to the Dallas Cowboys.
HERE are the schedules:
2011 Jets schedule!
2011 Giants schedule!
Let's hope the NFL owners and players can come to an agreement on the labor situation, otherwise this schedule will not be played until 2012.
