They do this on the Orville too. At least with Trek it was either the Captain or the XO, not both. In the Orville they both always go down. Loved that series but that always struck me as odd.

    Wasn't there a TNG episode centered around Troi being in charge pecause Picard and Riker being away?

    I believe that was a situation where they were still on the ship, but there was an emergency because different parts of the ship were cut off from each other.

    There was an episode where Geordi was in charge because Riker and Picard had transported to the surface. That was the first season, and he was a bridge officer (and I think a lieutenant or even lieutenant junior grade) at the time.
