What would happen if the..... (1 Viewer)

There'd be an easy solution.

Either one game would be on Saturday and the other on Sunday.

Or, One game would be at 11 AM, and the other would be at 7 or 8 PM. Plenty of time to get the stadium set up again.

Conference Championship games are usually both played on Sunday, (this year at 3pm and 8pm), so that solution prolly wouldn't work.
 
It's really no big deal.

Converting GIANT STADIUM into the Jets home field takes literally 5 minutes.

They just take a giant green bed sheet and drape it over the GIANT STADIUM logo out front. So not only do the New York Jets play in New Jersey but they also play at Giant Stadium. Comical.

Well, they're "usually" played in different stadiums, but that's not happening here, hence the original question.

Good call . . . I am pretty sure the NFL would never try anything different to solve a problem they never had before. In fact, they probably would not even delay the 2nd game if the first ran over. It would be a little confusing at first, but most of the time, the games would be going on at different spots on the field.

Read post 12. Just in case you want to watch the first half of the Giant-Pack game the game starts at 6:30. :help:
 
I think you'd see a 1 p.m. game and an 8 p.m. game. Still "normal" football times and enough time to get the stadium ready.

Then you'd see both teams demand their own stadium.

It would be on Saturday and Sunday.Why? It almost happen one year and thats how it would have been handled.Reson. OT, IF the first game went into Over time it would make things way too hard.But the Jets really do need to get there own field. That team is a joke. :goodposting:

uhhhh - Jet's and Giants are building a state of the art new stadium where each is a co-owner - no more tenant status.As for your question - they couldn't make it too on the same day without moving it somewhat - the field would be fine but it would take a long time to filter the parking lot. That would take hours
 
Parking for one game is already a nightmare...logistically, as cool as it would be, I don't think it's possible to swing a doubleheader there.

So there building two Stadiums? No. That my friend is the problem.Jets are toooooo cheap.

Aren't the end zones painted with the Team's logo?

That's just a big sticker that can peel off and on in under 2 minutes.

Great googly boogly.

I disagree - they were going to sink mega bucksinto a Manhattan Stadium when the politicians sold them out - they will own the new stadium just as much as the Giants so why aren't the Giants considerd cheap? It will be a billion dollar facility that will alter to each team on game day. Jets will finally be an owner not a tenant and it will no longer be "Giants stadium"

Since most teams tax the hel out of the locals to build stadiums, I would imagine most folks are pretty happy they held it down to one. Do you really need two stadiums in the same general area?
 
they would have to be on separate days. Tailgating is a full day event for many of the fans for both teams.

I would think that it would be on Saturday and Sunday. Back in the 80s (I don't remember the exact year, around 85 I think) both teams hosted the wildcard game and that is the way it was handled then.
 
This will occur on the average once every 256 seasons, so it isn't a big worry. But still, it could happen. A Saturday game and a Sunday game.

Giants and Jets Submit Plans for New Stadium

Teams unveil renderings at joint press conference

December 12, 2005

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The Giants and Jets today took another step toward building a new jointly owned stadium next door to their existing home when Giants Stadium LLC and Jets Development LLC jointly submitted a preliminary Master Site Plan for the New Meadowlands Stadium and its surroundings to the New Jersey Sports Authority.

> VIEW SELECT RENDERINGS FROM THE JOINT PROPOSAL<

The stadium, which is expected to seat approximately 80,000 people, will be the centerpiece of one of the most innovative and memorable spectator environments in professional sports.

The parties continue to work on design and financing details for a project that could cost approximately $900 million. The teams hope to have details finalized by early next year, begin construction in 2007 and open the new stadium in 2010.

Yada-yada-yada...
 
Play two "half-court" games at the same time. No kickoffs, instead it's like College OT, except they start from the 50.
Just picturing similar rules to half-court basketball: if the defense intercepted, would they have to take the ball back past the 50-yard line, then turn around and try to re-advance it toward the endzone they were just defending to return the INT for a TD? :thumbup:
 
IF, that happened, and IF they both won, a NY vs. NY Superbowl would be a media frenzy the likes of which we have never seen. If it happens to be the year their new stadium opens, and thus the Superbowl may be hosted in NY as well, the NFL higher ups may collectively and simultaneously wet themselves.

That, or the space time continuum would just fold over on itself.

Let me guess you live in New York. :no: No, the rest of the of the Country does not care to see Giants-Jets. :no:
 
Well, another option would be playing the first quarter of one game, then the first quarter of the next game, then the 2nd quarter of the first game, etc...

 
This was discussed a few years ago and IIRC the options were having one game extra early and one game late. So like 12:00 and 8:00.

The other oprion was having one game on Saturday and the other on Sunday.

This came up somewhere else and is getting researched with the league, so I will report back what the league has to say on this more officially.

And we still won more games than you, ####er.

That's just a big sticker that can peel off and on in under 2 minutes.
So once the logos are converted in 5 minutes, then all they have to worry about is the minor detail of clearing the stadium of 80,000 people in preparation for game 2. I can't imagine they'd be able to play both on the same day, but they might have to with the way the tv deals are setup.

Nope, not even close really. And I am a Redskins fan, so I could care less about either team. But I was witness to the "Subway Series" between the Mets and Yankees. I would guess that the Super Bowl would garner a bit more interest than that.
