Top 5 most intriguing games on the New York Giants' 2023 schedule
The New York Giants will play opponents with a combined winning percentage of.549 in 2023, which is the third toughest schedule in the NFL.
This year's schedule has a ton of challenging contests. Here are the top five according to our crew.
#5. Week 4: vs. Seattle Seahawks
The Seahawks will play a stronger, more seasoned Seahawks squad this time around after defeating the Giants 27-13 in Seattle last year. Seattle, a team that had a great draft last year and may have just had another one in April, has defeated the Giants just once in their last six meetings.
#4. Week 3: at San Francisco 49ers
Never a simple journey. Although the quarterback position for the 49ers may still be up in the air, their defense is always ready to the challenge. The Giants' grit in the trenches will be put to the test in Santa Clara, so they must get ready for a rough game.
#3. Week 6: at Buffalo Bills
Naturally, the coaching staff of the Giants is very familiar with the Bills, since both head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen are highly familiar with their business practices.
If the Giants can't contain Josh Allen and prevent the Bills' pass rush from entering their backfield, it won't really matter.
#2. Week 16: at Philadelphia Eagles
Now that we know, the game will be played on Christmas Day at 4:30 p.m. ET in the late TV window.
For the Giants, who are 3-16 (including playoffs) since 2014, that is not promising. They last defeated the Eagles on the road in 2013, winning 15-7 over a Philly offense led by backup quarterback Matt Barkley. That victory was aided by five field goals by Josh Brown.
#1. Week 10: at Dallas Cowboys
The Giants have not triumphed in Dallas since 2016, have gone 1-11 overall over the previous 12 encounters, and are 4-16 overall in the previous 20 encounters with the Cowboys.
The Cowboys have been rivals during that time, and the Giants haven't been very strong at that time.
