CHATHAM TOWNSHIP, N.J. — It is four hours before kickoff at MetLife Stadium, and the pregame routine at Greg Van Roten’s house has reached a critical juncture.

Van Roten, the Giants’ starting right guard, grew up on Long Island. So did his wife, Trish. What this means is that they regularly have 30 of their family and friends — two rows in a section of the stadium — on hand to cheer for the Giants and attend their pregame tailgate.

Trish is the family’s game-day quarterback, which was a lot easier a few years ago before she had two daughters in diapers. Now, as the minutes tick down before they depart for their 45-minute drive to MetLife Stadium, what can only be described as very organized chaos reigns at the house.
