why the Giants would get primetime games regardless of their record last season

Yup that’s an advantage - other longest trips are Dallas, Houston, Indy

I think it's a pretty reasonable schedule. Love the amount of 1pm games.
Going 3-13

and being shit for 6 years will get you alot of 1PM games, I suppose.
Seems like a pretty rough schedule  
illmatic : 4/19/2018 3:55 pm : link
for a team coming off a terrible last place season. But I guess it's a little skewed since we know the Niners should be better next season.
No matter how you slice it  
QB Snacks : 4/19/2018 3:57 pm : link
that's a really difficult schedule.

IF we take a QB first (not saying it's a bad idea) it's hard to see this team surviving the early portion of the season. Simply not enough on offense.

We need to nail AT LEAST one offensive line pick in this draft.
A couple players away..

holy shit the negativity is insane.

guys 3-13 without our 3 of our 4 top WRs. no run game, a dogshit OL play, shep banged up. the defense banged up early, poor coaching, no adjustments, etc.

I dont get why people think we are going to get stomped by everyone this season. we played philly tight as hell...they kicked a 61 yarder to win....they are the champs.

the NFL is any given sunday. go game by game, there is no reason we cannot becompetitive...

I agree with your overall sentiment but the team was 0-5 with those WR healthy.

They need to hit on an Offensive lineman in this draft badly or you're looking at jones jerry flowers from center to right. Thats pathetic.

When I'm going to the game i like 1 o clock but on tv I like 4.

The majority of the NFL slate is on at 1. Watch those games as an appetizer to the giants at 4.
Hate 1pm games  
Giants in 07 : 4/19/2018 4:08 pm : link
Redzone is where its at @ 1pm.

If the Giants are good, a decent chunk of those 1pm games will turn into 4:15 starts after the bye

okay first off...the defense was banged up first few weeks and we had a tough schedule. the OL badly struggled in those weeks and we had ZERO run game. i get we were bad, i am not saying we are fixed....however adding solder will definitely improve the OL. jones jerry flowers isnt even close to a gaurantee. wheeler could win the RT job, flowers could kick inside. OL play around the league is down, every team has holes and question marks. imo we took big steps to improve the OL.
if the giants draft barkley and hit on a guard in round 2, i see no reason why the offense cannot be pretty damn good. if we could just get the defense to wake up, we wont be a horrible team next year.
I'm with BleedBlue  
RollBlue : 4/19/2018 4:12 pm : link
if the team stays relatively healthy, they should be competitive. If OBJ plays in at least 14 games, they'll have a winning record.

Agreed. It makes for much better experience as a fan to have most other games at 1 for RedZone and Giants 4 or prime time.

RetroJint : 4/19/2018 4:26 pm : link
sense that I feel all games should be played Sun at 1. Impression: When you are a fan of a shit team, you approach these things with trepidation . Obviously they will do no worse than last season . They should be able to sweep Washington , maybe split with the AFC South . I see 6 wins, perhaps 7. As long as their mindset is to build a foundation with guys they can keep, as well as take care of some transitionary matters , there is nothing wrong with that win range .

Seen a year with so many 1pm games.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

To me, nothing says Giants games best like the 4:30 games against the likes of our division opponents with other nice matchups sprinkled in.

Doesn't help that we play the most boring division in the AFC this year

I was very worried when I saw the schedule.

Then, upon analyzing it further, I dont hate it as much, given the opponents we had to face.

The schedule is 100% front-loaded. The heavy lifting will need to be done right off the bat and if they do not get 3+ wins in their first 8 games, the season is pretty much toast.

The end of the schedule right now looks like they have an opportunity to win 4 out of their last 5. Which gets you at about 7 wins.

Then you got @ 49ers, home vs the Bucs, @ Philly. Brings me to around 8-10 wins. Without knowing much of anything obviously pre-draft and pre-training camp.

Nice to have a Thursday night game

What is the story with another front loaded schedule????  
Chris L. : 4/19/2018 4:48 pm : link
The NFL is all about getting off to a good start. Easy games at the end don't help if your team is out of it and has already checked out. After last year I didn't think the NFL would do it to us twice in a row...I was wrong. Mara needs to call the league and bitch.

I still have a special liking for 1pm games because for some reason I am still on a 2007-clock where my psycho ex-girlfriend would work from 1-6 on a Sunday. Always loved 1pm games when she was at work and I could watch football in peace.

Ah, the memories.
Darnold debuts Week 13 against Chicago.

2016 was the extreme on the positive, 17 extreme on the negative. The truth is in the middle.
I'm thinking 4-10 or so unless we have an amazing draft.

Although perhaps our horrid play last year had more to do with injuries and coaching than I am crediting.

Cleveland will have better record than that. Indy might be that again. Same teams in the top 3 spots in '19 draft, different order. Do it right, it's a quick (,re-)build for 2020.
That said, I think we win more than that, and will wait for the draft and camp look to see how it might go.
