A breakdown of the Giants 2017 opponents, and where the team's schedule ranks league-wide:
No division won more games than the NFC East in the 2016 regular season, so it comes as no surprise that all four teams rank in the Top 10 of toughest schedules for 2017.
The New York Giants, who went 11-5 last season, are tied with the New York Jets for the eighth-hardest schedule with an opponent winning percentage of .535. Strength of schedule is based on the 2016 records of opponents for all 32 teams.
