Giants Break Losing Streak, Beat Raiders 34-10

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.

New England Patriots Beat the New York Jets 42-10

The Patriots were always going to win this game, and the majority of people thought they’d do it handedly, but could anyone have expected something this uneven?

New England entered the locker room at halftime leading in just about everything over New York: total yards (344-77), first downs (23-3), turnovers forced (1-0), time of possession (20:17-9:43) and points (35-3), and things didn’t improve very much coming out of the break.

The Jets ran back-to-back fake punts on their first possession of the second half, with the second failing miserably and the game was lopsided until the end. 

Christmas Lights Create A Winter Wonderland

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.
