The New York Giants defeated the Las Vegas Raiders 34-10 on Sunday, getting the club’s third win of the season and stopping a nine-game losing streak. The Raiders now have a leg up on the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 draft.

Jaxson Dart ran for two touchdowns, Deonte Banks returned a kickoff for another score, and the New York Giants snapped a nine-game losing streak with the road victory over the Las Vegas Raiders, who extended theirs to 10 consecutive outings. Mike Kafka picked up his first victory since becoming interim head coach.

Dart completed 22 of 30 passes for 207 yards and ran for two touchdowns. Dart now has 22 total touchdowns (13 passing, nine rushing) in 11 starts. With one game to go, the No. 25 overall draft pick trails only Charlie Conerly (27 in 1948) and Daniel Jones (26 in 2019) for the most total touchdowns in Giants history by a rookie quarterback.

The 3-13 Giants wrap up the 2025 season with a visit from the Cowboys, who improved to 7-8-1 with a 30-23 victory over the Commanders on Christmas Day. The Giants lost the first leg of the season series in a wild overtime finish at AT&T Stadium in Week 2.

The Jets lost to the New England Patriots, 42-10, for their 13th loss of  the season and their sixth loss in the last seven games.

The first half saw the Jets not show up. The Patriots moved the ball at will on offense. They scored a touchdown every time they touched the ball. It was as thorough a beating as you will ever see in the NFL as the Patriots cruised to an insurmountable 35-3 halftime lead. The rest of the game would be extended garbage time.

The Patriots offense proceeded to score their sixth touchdown on another Drake Maye touchdown pass. The score was 42-3 early in the third quarter. 

Drake Maye called it a day and Joshua Dobbs replaced him under center. On the first play of the fourth quarter, Jet Breece Hall took a handoff and rambled 59 yards for a touchdown, making the final score 42-10.

The Jets drop to 3-13 on the season. Next week this abomination of a Jets season mercifully ends when they go on the road to play the Buffalo Bills.

Soccer fans eagerly await the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with MetLife Stadium in New Jersey prepared to host several key matches. The stadium, which seats over 82,000, will be the venue for five Group Stage matches, specifically matches 7, 17, 41, 56, and 67. However, none of these matches will feature the United States team.

In addition to the Group Stage matches, MetLife Stadium will host a Round of 32 match, a Round of 16 match, and the much-anticipated final match. The World Cup will take place from June 11 to July 19, 2026.

Fans can apply for FIFA’s 2026 World Cup ticket drawings starting December 11. The application period will continue until January 13, giving fans a chance to secure their spot at one of the world’s most prestigious sporting events.

In one of the ugliest games of the 2025 NFL season, the (7-8) Minnesota Vikings defeated the (2-13) New York Giants 16-13. The loss was New York’s ninth straight and enhanced their chances of getting the number one overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.

The two teams had a combined 22 accepted penalties, and the lone offensive touchdown scored all afternoon was a J.J. McCarthy 12-yard run in the second quarter.

To put in perspective how bad this season has been for the Giants, they’ve fired more coaches this year (Brian Daboll, Shane Bowen, and Brian Cox) than they have wins.

The offense was disastrous on Sunday as they were only able to muster 141 yards. But they still could have come away with a victory if Abdul Carter hadn’t lined up offside on a Jevon Holland 96-yard interception return for a touchdown. But as they say, bad teams will find ways to lose.

The New Orleans Saints (5-10), behind five field goals by Charlie Smyth, defeated the New York Jets (3-12) 29-6 at Caesars Superdome.

New Orleans won its third consecutive game while the Jets lost their third in a row and fourth out of their last five games.

Saints rookie quarterback Tyler Shough carved up the Jets defense finishing 32 for 49 with 308 yards and a touchdown pass. 

Sunday marked Chris Harris‘ first game as Jets interim defensive coordinator. Following Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence scoring six touchdowns last week, the Jets defense couldn’t get much worse. 

In the second start of his career, Jets QB Brady Cook failed to show much growth from last week’s game. Cook was sacked eight times due to his lack of pocket presence. 

The Jets rushing attack struggled to get going. Breece Hall finished with 54 rushing yards on the ground and the Jets averaged just 3.2 yards rushing.

The Jets will play their final game at MetLife Stadium this season next weekend when they host the New England Patriots.

Dyker Heights is once again the epicenter of electrifying Christmas magic — enough to knock your stockings off!

Every holiday season, just after Thanksgiving, the Brooklyn neighborhood — which stretches from 11th to 13th avenues and from 83rd Street to 86th Street — is transformed into a winter wonderland.

Throngs of all ages flock to the nabe like wise men to Bethlehem to gaze at life-sized Santas, sleds and snowmen — as well as aliens in sports cars; humongous toy soldiers; and mountainous milk and cookies left for Father Christmas.

Subtlety is sidelined. From lawns to rooftops, every inch of property is covered with illuminated choirboys, angels, wreaths and snowflakes.

NEW YORK CITY  —  Santa Claus made a surprise visit to Rick’s Cabaret New York, the famous adult club known for its stunning array of over 200 beautiful exotic dancers, the best in VIP treatment, and great food.

Rick’s girl Kristi said, “All the Rick’s girls are really hot, and Santa was impressed. Christmas is amazing at Rick’s with so many parties, business people, office parties, pro athletes, couples —  all having a great time.”

Jacory Croskey-Merritt ran for a touchdown, fellow rookie Jaylin Lane returned a punt 63 yards to the end zone and the Washington Commanders ended their season-derailing skid at eight games by beating the similarly woeful New York Giants 29-21 on Sunday.

The only NFL game this week with no playoff implications has a far bigger bearing on draft positioning. The Giants (2-12) lost their eighth in a row, moving a step closer to the top pick, a last-place finish in the NFC East and potentially front-office changes, with a coaching search already coming.

Jayden Daniels’ didn’t play Sunday after aggravating a left elbow injury, so it was Marcus Mariota who quarterbacked the Commanders to their first victory since Oct. 5.

Mariota connected with top receiver Terry McLaurin on a 51-yard catch-and-run TD early in the fourth quarter. That was one of only 10 passes Mariota completed on 19 attempts for 211 yards, with a fumble.

Giants QB Jaxson Dart had TD passes to Tyrone Tracy and Wan’Dale Robinson but also threw a costly interception and was incomplete on a fourth-and-goal attempt with 10 minutes left.

Tracy ran for the Giants’ first touchdown after falling behind 13-0, and his TD catch happened when they were down 22-7.
