September 2014:
Sunday, September 21 at 1pm: Washington vs. Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA | For Tickets Click Here For A Free Price Quote
Many observers have the offensive-minded Philadelphia Eagles a favorite to win NFC East, while Washington always finds headlines both on and off the field. In addition to being an important division clash, former Eagles star wide receiver Desean Jackson returns to The Linc for the first time as part of Washington D.C.’s hometown team. On the Philly side, you have Nick Foles behind center, Lesean “Shady” McCoy in the backfield, while D.C. has scrambling Robert Griffin III and Jackson leading the way on offense. Lots of NFL stars on the field for this one.
Sunday, October 12 at 1pm: Denver Broncos vs. New York Jets at Metlife Stadium, East Rutherford, N.J. | For Tickets Click Here For A Free Price Quote
Jets fans are optimistic the team is a playoff contender. But by October will the J-E-T-S be lead by Geno Smith or Michael Vick? Will the Mean in Green be so mean defensively? Jets fans will have a better sense of how their team stacks up when the Super Bowl runner-up Denver Broncos, led by legendary quarterback Peyton Manning,come to the Meadowlands. It’s one thing to see Peyton’s genius on TV but to see him at work in person – seeing the fake (and some real) audibles, seeing his presence in the huddle and in the pocket, seeing his throws in the face of danger – is a football lover’s joy. Manning’s visit in October could be one of the last chances to see him at work in person. More reason to go see this game live.
Sunday, October 12 at 8:30pm: New York Giants vs. Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA | For Tickets Click Here For A Free Price Quote
Another key NFC East clash with two longtime I-95 rivals. Being an earlier season matchup, both teams undoubtedly will see this as a must-win division battle. The Giants hope the Eli-Manning-To-Victor-Cruz connection returns to being a dangerous combination for the Eagles defense. Philly fans want to see Nick Foles roll down the field with that high-powered passing attack.
Monday, November 3 at 8:30pm: Indianapolis Colts vs. New York Giants at Metlife Stadium, East Rutherford, N.J. | For Tickets Click Here For A Free Price Quote
Another quarterback to watch is of course Peyton Manning’s replacement in Indy, Andrew Luck, who is expected to have a Hall of Fame-caliber season. This could be a crucial non-conference game for the contending Giants or a blowout air show from Luck and the Colts. Regardless, it should be an entertaining game.
Sunday, November 16 at 1pm: San Francisco 49ers vs. New York Giants at Metlife Stadium, East Rutherford, N.J. | For Tickets Get A Free Price Quote
Possibly Big Blue’s toughest home game of the season, Colin Kaepernick and the San Francisco 49ers head to Metlife Stadium for a big mid-season test. The 49ers are among the most talented in the league and would be looking to stay strong in an ultra-competitive NFC West, while the Giants – if they are playing well enough to be in the playoff hunt – can see where they stack up against a Super Bowl contender.
Sunday, November 23 at 8:30pm: Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants at Metlife Stadium, East Rutherford, N.J. | For Tickets Click Here For A Free Price Quote
It’s simple: if you hate the Dallas Cowboys, you want to see them live so you can boo them and hopefully see your team win. If you love the Cowboys – and there are many Dallas fans living near the New Jersey Turnpike – you will want to take advantage of seeing The Star when playing at a stadium near you. Dallas will visit the Meadowlands the Sunday before Thanksgiving…
Sunday, December 14 at 8:30pm: Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA | For Tickets Click Here For A Free Price Quote
…and Tony Romo‘s boys will visit the hostile confines in South Philadelphia on December 14. Iggles fans: gear up those boos! Cowboys fans: wear your Michael Irvin throwback…just be careful.
Sunday, December 21 at 1pm: New England Patriots vs. New York Jets at Metlife Stadium, East Rutherford, N.J. | For Tickets Click Here For A Free Price Quote
Ideally, this game determines the playoffs picture for both teams. The Jets would be very happy to either spoil New England’s plans or stake its claim of AFC East leader with a win. Once again, Tom Brady aims to put up big numbers with a ensemble cast of receivers while the Jets defense will try to knock the Patriots off their rhythm.
Sunday, December 28 at 1pm: Philadelphia Eagles vs. New York Giants at Metlife Stadium, East Rutherford, N.J. | For Tickets Click Here For A Free Price Quote
If recent history tells us anything, this final NFC East regular season game is likely to determine the division winner. In 2013, the Philadelphia Eagles eked out a tough road win against the Dallas Cowboys to clinch the division. To end the 2011 regular season, the New York Giants started its Super Bowl championship run with a big win over the hated Cowboys. In January 2010, Dallas romped Philly to clinch a playoff home game against those same Eagles, with the Cowboys winning that home playoff matchup as well.
So as a ticket buyer, you are virtually guaranteed to see the division- or playoff-clinching game. If you are a NFL junkie, the final regular season game pitting NFC East rivals will be worth every penny.
