Currently you can catch a train all the way from Connecticut to the Meadowlands on game days. It really wouldn't make sense to add the extra costs to extend the subway there for the stadium. There's not a lot going on there most of the week, and the extension to Secaucus is primarily to relieve rail congestion and get more commuters into the city.
