I would be surprised if this is accurate.

Night game, followed by west coast trip, followed by another west coast trip on short rest?

Seems unlikely unless they intentionally plan to stay on the west coast between games.

But connected with a SNF game? I expect a very light camp for the starters this year.
Full Schedule (Unofficial)  
Simms2McConkey : 5/11/2023 8:58 am : link
Hey everyone.

Not sure on all dates and times yet, but I am fairly certain this is the breakdown week by week.

My sourcing is below. Not sure of any more primetime games there than the ones I listed. If I didn't list a date, I am not totally sure on it.

Week 1: Sun, 9/10 HOME vs Dallas Cowboys (SNF)
Week 2: at San Francisco 49ers
Week 3: at Arizona Cardinals
Week 4: Mon, 10/2 HOME vs. Seattle Seahawks (MNF)
Week 5: Sun, 10/8 at Miami Dolphins
Week 6: at Buffalo Bills
Week 7: at Washington Commanders
Week 8: Sun, 10/29 HOME vs. New York Jets
Week 9: Sun, 11/5 at Las Vegas Raiders
Week 10: at Dallas Cowboys
Week 11: HOME vs. Washington Commanders
Week 12: HOME vs. New England Patriots
Week 13: BYE
Week 14: Monday, 12/11 HOME vs. Green Bay Packers (MNF)
Week 15: at New Orleans Saints
Week 16: Monday, 12/25 @ Philadelphia Eagles (Christmas, 4:30)
Week 17: Sunday, 12/31 HOME vs. Los Angeles Rams
Week 18: Sunday, 1/7 HOME vs. Philadelphia Eagles

NFL confirmed: Week 16 Eagles.

Art Stapleton of Bergen Record has confirmed: Cowboys Week 1, an early back to back SF and Arizona road trip (more on this in a second), Jets 10/29, Raiders 11/5, Packers MNF Week 14, Rams NYE.

License Plate Guy has confirmed the home/away breakdown of the schedule week to week alongside games he needs to fly too and the three games where he's driving (safely assuming: Philly, Washington, Buffalo).

Yes, LPG is your typical "reliable" journalist source but he's done schedule leaks the past few years and all have been accurate and spot on, and they also match everything I saw from Stapleton too as well as the schedule leaking sources I reference below.

So with that, SF and Arizona should be Weeks 2 and 3. LPG already leaked a MNF game Week 4 on 10/2 and at Miami Week 5. Weeks 6 and 7 are driving games, only Buffalo and Washington left.

@OzzyNFL and @NerdingonNFL (yearly schedule breaking crew, legit) have it Buffalo Week 6, leaving Washington for Week 7.

That group also has at Dallas Week 10 and home Washington Week 11. And from there, you can connect the dots.

The only possible road game and slot left is at New Orleans, Week 15.

Two home slots, Weeks 4 and 12. But we know Seahawks are hosting 49ers on Thanksgiving Week 12. Which means Seattle home Week 4 MNF, New England home Week 12.

And that leaves...Eagles home to close the season, playing PHI twice in last 3 weeks.

Yea, I see now that SF & ARZ are switched and the game at ARZ is on TNF. I also saw week 6 at Buffalo. This makes sense.

It’s funny, despite the “skim” error, it brought to mind how the Giants almost always played their first 3-4 games (while playing at Yankee Stadium) on the road to accomodate the perennial World Series entrants, the Yanks..That began to change from the mid-60s on..

The schedule balances out. The first half is alot of travel, including three straight road games in October. No daytime home games until Oct.29.

But, from week 11 onward, they will play three straight at home. Five of seven at home, and will only have to get on a plane once the last seven weeks of the season.
And to offer some commentary on the leaks...  
Simms2McConkey : 5/11/2023 9:18 am : link
I don't have a register of past Giants schedules in my head, but this one is really odd.

5 of first seven on road, including three of four not on Sunday afternoon, including two games back to back on opposite end of the country...is something.

But the payoff is Giants only have to hop on a plane once in the last eight weeks of the season.

Giants have 9 road games this year, this has caused some quirks in scheduling with that extra game.
A lot of factors contribute to wonky schedules in today's NFL...  
bLiTz 2k : 5/11/2023 9:20 am : link
This year we play the AFC and NFC West, in addition to the NFC being short a home game.

All of that adds up to trying to fit in a ton of west coast trips with one less home game than last year.

If this is the real schedule I don't hate it...it was always going to be a tough one.

Yup, they pretty much have to.

7 of 9 games are on the road? That does not sound feasible. On the one hand we are then stacked with home games mid Nov. Until the end of the season, but damn, that could be a disaster.

That's a rough start to the season, first 5 of the 7 games there will be heavy traveling.

Chris684 : 5/11/2023 10:07 am : link
The San Fran game is tricky and it is a lot of road games early but if we’re being honest, up to Buffalo and down to Washington are easy trips in terms of travel/logistics. Stiff competition early but the 2nd half will be a real opportunity with all those home games.

Miami is pretty short flight as well. I actually like AZ and SF back to back. Better than flying out West twice
Only 3 Home games in the first two months of the season

I'm pretty sure that's a more likely setup for every single team that plays on TNF than any alternative (which can only really happen when a team has a bye week leading up to TNF). So I don't see how that makes it weird, when it's the same way for the overwhelming majority of TNF participants.

But connected with a SNF game? I expect a very light camp for the starters this year.

So the 11 day stretch is shortened by six or seven hours total, and it's at the very top of the season. I think you're making too much of it.

Maybe if the Giants were opening on MNF and then playing TNF two weeks later, it would be odd. But this is just the nature of playing on TNF.

shockeyisthebest8056 : 5/11/2023 10:21 am : link
They’re giving teams “schedule losses” like the Giants got in Seattle last season or Seattle got in Germany. Unless a team is one of the absolute best in the sport, the travel within a short period of time makes certain games nearly impossible to win. I don’t recall scheduling like this a few years ago.

As a NY team, we get used to being in prime time as soon as the team isn't terrible, but if this is the schedule Mara should have a fit, if he means what he says about considering the ticket holders.

Surprising indeed that it's the Lions, but my friend just brought up a good point. Lions will should be competitive based on last season and gambling wise, it makes a lot sense.
Giants took advantage of one of the easiest schedules in the whole NFL  
Metnut : 5/11/2023 10:30 am : link
last year to go 9-7 after winning a number of close games. It's going to be harder this year.

The good news is that the team might be better (even if they catch match last year's record). The Week 1 game vs Dallas looks like an early crucial game with @SF following it up. NYG can't go 0-4 vs DAL and Philly again and home vs Dallas would be the type of game the team really needs to win.
I hate not having a home 1pm game not until week8?

assuming the team is relatively healthy early, knock on wood, then six of the last 10 games are at home, four on the road plus a bye.

I'd prefer that as the team is (hopefully) pushing for a playoff berth late in the year.

The travel breaks out pretty nicely.

Back to back games on west coast, they stay out there. That eliminates another West Coast trip. Then have off until the following Monday night vs Seattle.

Miami-2 hr flight
Buffalo-barely an hr flight
Washington-Train ride

Vegas & Dallas back to back games, it is what it is.

Then from Week 11 onward they will travel by plane once to NO, take a bus or train to PHI and play the rest at home.

Same stuff. Different yr

Well. There are more games for those sports some of us don't have to worry about working around work schedules. All of the away New York Ranger games that I attended this past year just so happened to be on days I had off. Football I'm taking days off for.

Seattle has always been a better home team than road team. Let’s see how they handle the roles being reversed and THEY have to travel 3000 miles for a road game

To get to gel with teammates better as they travel together in the beginning of the season? Just looking at a potential positive.
Cardinals  
AcesUp : 5/11/2023 12:32 pm : link
Kyler is expected to miss the start of the year, getting the Cardinals early would be a nice break. Especially if they honor the Giants request and it's part of a west coast road swing. Short week road game against a Cardinals isn't the best spot, so would be nice to get them against McCoy instead.
Also keep in mind  
AcesUp : 5/11/2023 12:34 pm : link
Giants requested back to back road games out West. Makes it easy for travel since they can stay out west. The league wouldn't be screwing the Giants there, it's actually a favor. I believe Arizona State practice facilities have been used in the past in similar spots.

See how they handle the roles being reversed in what sense? They are indeed a better home team than road (most teams are), and they have a strong home field advantage (especially with the piped-in noise). But Seattle also has to travel at least 800 miles just to get to their nearest opponent (and that's in their own division), every year. Every single one of their road games requires air travel. They're not the only team with this sort of dynamic (there just are more teams more closely-located on the eastern half of the map), and this is hardly a unique occurrence for them. In fact, I'd bet that the only times they don't lead the league in miles traveled is when some other west coast team plays in Europe and they don't.
Schedule  
stretch234 : 5/11/2023 1:33 pm : link
Every year there is complaining

- not enough prime time games
- schedule doing us no favors with lots of early home games
- too many road division games at end of year
- why so many back to back road games
- why not more 1pm games
- why so many 4pm starts
- never on prime time at home
Etc, etc, etc

We know that as long as Philly and Dallas are good the Giants will have a prime time game with each. You will have a Thu night game

Next year will likely be a lot of early games due to playing AFC North and NFC South, almost all in Eastern time zone
I just have to laugh

IMO that’s actually favorable, but I guess that’s up to the individual. I’d rather have it all grouped together - as a player and coaching staff, you can really get into a routine and find what works…plus they’ll presumably stay out on the west coast for 2 weeks. That’s the only real travel they’ll have. Buffalo, Miami and DC are short flights. Plus you gotta remember the flight experience for these players is much better than your average persons airport/flight experience.

Having 5 of 6 on the road also means that 9/12 of the other weeks they’ll be at home or on BYE.
