The Giants' defense, led by and , recorded six sacks while allowing just one third down conversion on 15 attempts.Sunday's game is somewhat of a rematch; the two teams faced off this preseason in what was Rodgers' first live action with the Jets.

Before the two teams renew their rivalry on Sunday, here's a look at the top-five games in the long history of Gotham's two teams.Ryan Fitzpatrick had some crazy moments during his truly unique career. One of those moments occurred as the Jets' quarterback in a win over the Giants in Week 13 of the 2015 season.Down 20-10, Fitzpatrick led the Jets on a pair of late scoring drives. The second drive ended with his game-tying touchdown pa s to Brandon Marshall with 27 seconds left in regulation, forcing overtime. "A strike to Marshall!"An iconic Jets-Giants moment from 2015! New York Jets UK (@NYJetsinUK) Fitzpatrick, who threw for 390 yards on the day, started overtime with five straight completions to set up Randy Bullock's go-ahead field goal. But after Giants wideout Dwayne Harris returned the ensuing kickoff 43 years, it appeared that Fitzpatrick's herculean effort would be outdone by Eli Manning, whose accoladesalready included a pair of Super Bowl winning drives.Two completions from Manning to Odell Beckham Jr. helped get the Giants Julius Randle Jersey into field goal range. But Josh Brown mi sed his 48-yard attempt, giving the Jets a 23-20 win while adding to what was a forgettable season for Big Blue.One of rivalry's most memorable matchups took place in Week 9 of the 2003 season. In a game that took nearly 75 minutes to decide, the Giants prevailed, 31-28, on Brett Conway's 29-yard field goal on the Giants' third and final overtime po se sion. The Giants had taken a 28-14 lead with le s than 10 minutes to play, but the Jets rallied to tie the score on a pair of Chad Pennington touchdown pa ses, the second one occurring with 29 seconds left in regulation.Both teams had opportunities to win the game in overtime. The Giants mi sed a field goal at the start of overtime, and the Jets followed suit with a mi sed field goal on their second po se sion of the extra period. Given another chance to win the game, the Giants took advantage when Kerry Collins completed pa ses to Amani Toomer and Tiki Barber to set up Conway's game-winning kick.Oddly enough, the first meeting between the two teams was not played in either New York or New Jersey. It was instead played at New Haven, Connecticut's Yale Bowl, which temporarily housed the Giants for two seasons during the '70s. While it was a, the first Giants-Jets game had a playoff atmosphere. Fresh off of a win inIII, the Jets were hungry to beat the team that had first captured New York's heart after winning the 1956title. The Giants were hoping to hold off Broadway Joe and the defending champs in the first and only game played between the two teams before the AFL-NFL merger."Giants fans still don't feel we're on a parity with their team and we feel we've got to prove it Stanley Johnson Jersey ," Jets linebacker Larry Grantham said that summer,. "A lot of people, NFL fans, still regard the Super Bowl as a fluke."The Jets' upset in Super Bowl III created even more interest in pro football. Evidence of this was the fact that over 70,000 fans were on hand on August 17, 1969 to see if the Jets could back their shocking upset over the NFL championmonths earlier by beating the Giants, who by this time had fallen on hard times after being one of the NFL's crowed jewels during the '50s. Fans rooting for the green and white that day were not disappointed. Led by Namath's three touchdown pa ses, the Jets recorded a 37-14 win over the Giants, who fired their head coach after the game."We played as hard as we did in the Super Bowl, said Namath, who actually played better against the Giants than he did in Super Bowl III. "There's no doubt who's No. 1 in New Tony Carr Jersey York now. The score proves who's No. 1."

Big Blue's playoff hopes were officially dashed when Jets wideout Al Toon caught the game-winning score with 37 seconds left. Making this lo s even tougher to digest for Giants fans was the fact that their team had rallied back from a 20-7 deficit to take a one-point lead following Phil Simms' 9-yard touchdown pa s to Lionel Manuel with just under five minutes left.But mere moments after Simms' touchdown pa s, Bobby Humphrey took the ensuring kickoff 37 yards to the Jets' 48-yard-line.

While anticipation for this Christmas Eve matchup was already high (then-Jets coach Rex Ryan declared Gang Green as the better team earlier in the week), it reached an even higher level after the Jets put black curtains over the Giants' four Super Bowl logos painted on the outside wall of the locker room hours before kickoff. Fuming, the Giants took their frustrations out on the Jets, who had appeared in the previous two AFC title games. The Jets led early, but fell behind for good after scored on a 99-yard catch-and-run late in the first half.
