EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Follow the money. It always seems to tell the true story of what is happening, especially when it applies to the NFL.
In the case of the New York City area football teams, all you need to do is peruse the ticket market for their opening games this week. A seat in section 113, row 11 right behind the home bench for the New York Jets’ opener on Monday night against the Buffalo Bills is being sold for $4,500 per seat on Ticketmaster. The same row, section, two seats over for the New York Giants’ opener on Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys is going for $1,932, a cool 57% off compared to the Jets.
