As you all know, 2013 wasn't a good year for both NY football teams. In fact, it wasn't a good year for any NY team, but that's a discussion for another time. The question here is: Which New York team had a more disappointing season? The Jets or Giants?
The Giants came in w/ SB aspirations the Jets were expected to be a 3-4 win team. Clearly the Giants were the more disappointing team.
I would argue that the Giants had BY FAR the most disappointing 2013 of any NY sports team (not counting the 2013 portion so far of the 2013-2014 seasons for the Knicks, Nets, and Islanders, which are somewhat comparable).
Remember when the Giants GM put a Super Bowl countdown clock up? Yeah me too.. Giants by far had the more disappointing season of the two. The jets were supposed to win 4 games
I don't know that anybody seriously considered the Giants SB contenders and anybody that had the Jets as a 3-4 win team didn't know what they were talking about either. Even still, the answer is obviously the Giants
Come on. The Giants were expected to be pretty damn good. The Jets were expected to be Bottom 3. The Giants are 5-9 while the Jets are 6-8. Whoever voted the Jets was clearly trolling.

Its not even a close question, it was the Giants. They had higher expectations, there season was over when they started 0-6. Ours was going until the 3 game losing streak.
