NFL schedule release.

I think the schedule sets up nicely to be honest. Tough, but it always is. Let's go

10-6

Also, Skins hosting Giants Thanksgiving night is maybe the biggest game of the regular season when it comes to viewers outside of the opening game of the season. NFL loves these east coast, major media market games.

The middle part of the schedule is brutal! And the Thanksgiving game turn around is gonna suck, but it's gonna be at home at least. Also, the following week is another Thursday night game, so at least they are back to back to not create another short week at some point in the season. Then after the Cowboys that 11 day break is like a second bye and gives us a respite before the last four games. If we start off strong (4-0), then split the next 8 games during that tough stretch (8-4), we'll be in good shape coming out of the mini bye, and let's say finish 11-5.

I hope you prediction comes true, but this whole thing is brutal. You really have some nasty back to back games going on that might make injuries a problem this season. The Raiders and Chiefs back to back, same with Dallas and Seattle, and the year ender Broncos then Gmen. A week 5 bye sucks ass, but we might need it on week 5 because of the Oakland, KC one two punch there. The D better be much improved, or this season is going to suck. By our bye week we might be 3-1 or 0-4. Like I just said, our D better be much improved, and our O needs to stay at the same level. It should be a fun season, but damn we have some tuff mini stretches there!

Right now based off of this current roster I'd say 9-7

Skins have only one NFC East game after Thanksgiving ,just seems strange.

The Giants between Thanksgiving and the end of the season play four,Skins, Cowboys,Eagles and Skins.

Giants open AGAIN with the effffing cowboys!Sunday night NBC.

Don't they play the Cowboys right after and then the Giants again to end the season?

Have to agree with you Okie. Unless we draft some stud defensive linemen that are already NFL ready, we might be in for a real fight to get over .500 again. We are already in one of the toughest divisions in the NFC, and now we have to play against the toughest division in the NFL to boot.

It is all about ratings, as I am sure you well know. The Gmen/Cowboys opener is just a great matchup for the first SNF game. Viewership will be sky high for sure. I definitely will be watching it. Get to see if we might actually have a chance at the division in the early going after I see the Skins/Eagles. The Gmen and Dallas are the favorites to win the division. The scheduling of the late divisional games is to keep the ratings at a high level since NY one of the premier TV markets. Interest will be high!!!! Unless the Skins really do go all out on D in the draft and draft well, I think they will be out of the picture most likely after the Turkey Day game, unless we beat you guys. I am just worried about injuries to Reed and Cravens. God damn that Raiders, then Chiefs back to back crap might be a killer if the games get extremely physical.

No cream puff schedule for us! But, you only get better playing the better teams.

Alvin Walton · 04-21-2017, 09:57 AM

Two Monday night games.
Two Thursday night games.
And the bye week position sucks monkey butt.

Hahaha your schedule is brutal. 4 games against teams coming off their bye, more than anybody in the NFL. And 3rd most miles traveled against away teams, the only ones higher are those headed to London.

-22 in rest days compared to your competition. Meaning if you take the number of rest days the Giants will be on going into each game, and do the same with their opponents, and aggregate both, on the whole your opponents will have an aggregate of 22 more rest days than you do.

Eat a GIANT bowl!

You can watch Sunday Ticket without having a dish.

You can purchase offerings that will permit you to stream The Ticket to mobile devices. I have Android devices, and with the app, I can Chromecast my ticket to any of the 5 Chromecasts I have in my home.
