The New York Giants finished last season with a 6-10 record, but stayed in the hunt for the NFC East title due to the struggles of the division as a whole. Because of this, the Giants will have a legitimate opportunity to compete for the division title and a berth in the playoffs. Here are the five biggest games on the Giants’ 2016 schedule.
