We are in for one of two shows Saturday night, when the New York Jets play the New York Giants in one of two games they play this season. While the first is only a pre season game, it's thought to be the most intense game of the pre season. The starters for each team will likely play three quarters each, leaving us with a showdown between Rookie of the Year Odell Beckham Jr. facing off against Revis Island.

This past week Odell Beckham Jr. has been facing some criticism after teammate Victor Cruz said the young stud is being "targeted". When talking to NJ.com, Revis had one simple reply for OBJ "He just has to step up to the challenge," Revis said. 

"He's one of the best receivers in the league. He definitely is maybe a target for coaches to game plan, or maybe slide the coverages over his way, or maybe a safety, or maybe a double [team]. The guy did awesome last year. This comes with it, in years after. It's something that he has to work at."said Revis

Beckham Jr. is going to have to get use to being double teamed, and getting some cheap shots on him if he plans to be the best wide out in the league. No player wants to be embarrassed especially by some second year kid who is doing the "nae nae" on every first down. If his elder teammate Victor Cruz wants to help he can get off the sidelines, and take some pressure off him.

The two teams will battle it out for the king of MetLife in week 13, the Giants will be considered the home team.
