Giants Name Jason Garrett Offensive Coordinator

Giants vs. Cowboys is about to get a whole lot more interesting next fall.

Big Blue has finalized a deal with former Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett to become the club's offensive coordinator.

Garrett is no stranger to the Giants; he was a back-up quarterback for New York from 2000 to 2003, and is well regarded within the organization.

Garrett, of course was fired just two weeks ago by the Cowboys after a lengthy, and at times, bizarre 10-year stay as Cowboys head coach. Bringing Garrett into New York could be a huge boon for new Giants head coach Joe Judge.

Judge has never been a head coach at any level and will definitely pick the brain of Garrett who is very familiar with the personnel in the entire division, including Dallas. 

Garrett's primary job will be to tutor quarterback Daniel Jones and get this Giants offense humming on a more consistent basis. While Jones showed flashes last season, he was troubled by turnovers, specifically fumbles. Garrett's experience as both a quarterback and quarterbacks coach could be extremely helpful to the Giants.

When will Garrett get a chance to avenge his old team? We'll have to wait until mid-April when the 2020 schedule is released, but rest assured the match-up will garner plenty of attention as one would expect. Heck, the Giants have opened up the schedule with the Cowboys in five of the last six seasons.

Jets, Dolphins and Patriots Playoff Breakdown

Here are the formuli that could get the Jets into and out of the playoff party this season: 1) If the Jets win against Seattle and Miami, they win the AFC East based on a better conference record (8-4) than the New England Patriots, even if New England wins out as well. 2) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins win out and finish at 11-5, the Jets would be 10-6, or 9-7, and probably out of the playoffs. Both New England and Miami would make the playoffs, with the Dolphins as a divison winner and the Patriots as a wild card. The Patriots make the postseason if Baltimore loses one of its final two games. 3) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins and Jets split, then the Patriots win the AFC East. The Jets will have to hope that they beat Miami to win that tie-breaker and, further, hope that they have a better conference record than the Baltimore Ravens in order to clinch the sixth seed. 4) If the Patriots and Ravens win out and the Dolphins and Jets split their final two games, then ...

Francisco Lindor Remains Red Hot as Mets Top Phillies

 Francisco Lindor remains the hottest player in Queens right now.  The Mets shortstop blasted two more home runs, including a three-run blast in the bottom of the eighth inning, Monday night to help propel the Mets to a 5-4 win over Philadelphia.   Lindor who typically struggles in the month of April is putting together a heck of a month. Monday's two hit effort was the 10th game in the last 11 where Lindor has recorded a hit. In fact in the month of April alone this year, Lindor was hitting at .311 coming into Monday's action.  On the year, Lindor is batting .284 with five homers and 13 RBI.  Lindor's efforts proved to be prophetic, as the Phillies Alec Bohm crushed a three-run bomb off Edwin Diaz in the top of the ninth to cut the Mets lead to a single run. Fortunately for New York, Diaz was able to shut the door with strikeouts of Trea Turner and Bryce Harper.  New York (16-7) has now won five in a row.

Mets Keep Rolling into Phillies Series

 The New York Mets are feeling pretty good about things right now!  The Amazin's swept a four game series from the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday, winning 7-4 Sunday afternoon. It was the first time since 1986 that the Amazin's had swept such a series from St. Louis. We all know what happened later that season.    Well, not to get too far ahead of ourselves, because the 2025 version now faces a very stiff challenge. The Mets will face their arch rivals the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday with only two games separating the two teams in the NL East.  The Mets took out Philly in the NLDS last October, so this figures to be a heck of showdown. The Mets begin a month long stretch against teams that are likely postseason contenders like the Phillies, D-Backs, Cubs, Yankees, Red Sox, and Dodgers.  If the Mets (15-7) are this good, we will know for sure in a month.
