The Giants weren't expected to win many games this season (my projection was six). You blame me? They hadn't topped six wins in any of the previous five seasons. But all they've done so far is find ways to win, whether it's by going for two in the opener, shutting out Aaron Rodgers in the second half or getting their first interception of the season to win them the game against Lamar Jackson and the Ravens. It doesn't matter that the Giants are 23rd in total offense and 15th in defense. Coach Brian Daboll has this team believing and finishing. They've outscored opponents 87-49 in the second half of games. -- Jordan Raanan


9. New York Jets (4-2)​


Week 6 ranking: 16

The rookie class is developing quicker than expected. Cornerback Sauce Gardner and running back Breece Hall, in particular, have made such an impact that they have to be considered candidates for Defensive and Offensive Rookie of the Year, respectively. Gardner has eight pass breakups, one interception and has allowed only one reception in man coverage, per NFL Next Gen Stats. Hall replaced Michael Carter as the RB1 and is ninth in the league with 609 yards from scrimmage. Growing pains? Not at all. -- Rich Cimini
 

NFL Power Rankings for Week 7: Giants, Jets taking league by storm​

By Ryan Dunleavy

7. New York Giants 5-1 (10)​

The Kings of Comeback have trailed by seven points or more in the second half of four of their five wins. Defensive coordinator Wink Martindale got the last laugh against his former team when the Giants recorded an interception and a fumble recovery in the final six minutes of a 24-20 win against the Ravens.

11. New York Jets 4-2 (15)​

Rookies have brought swagger back to the Jets: Breece Hall celebrated a touchdown with a Lambeau Leap and Sauce Gardner ran around wearing a cheesehead after a 27-10 win against the Packers was complete. The Jets are off to their best start since 2015, after brothers Quincy Williams (14 tackles) and Quinnen Williams (two sacks) led the defense.
 
As a Jets fan I will state the obvious. No one truly believes in them yet and in most everyone of these rankings they have the lowest ranking re their record.

And really, to date based on just the games played how can anyone have Tampa Bay picked over the Jets?

Give me Zack Wilson over Tom Brady any day of the week. LOL

I’ve watched a lot of the Jets games , even though I’m a Giant fan , and like A lot of the sports media analysts have said the Jets have drafted well and have a number of really good young talent on their roster . One more above average draft , sighing a couple of key free agents and Wilson continuing to get better and they are a solid playoff team that will be a tough out.
 
The Giants are 5-1 with a + 14 point differential. They've won by one, three, eight, five and four and have a seven-point loss.

The Bills are also 5-1 and their point differential is +95 while the 6-0 Eagles are +56. Similar to the Giants, the Vikings at 5-1 are + 21.
