The New York Giants 2023 opponents - *2022 playoff teams.
NFL PLAYOFFS Check out the game recaps and current headlines. Jan 30 Giants betrayed by legendary NYC landmark after Eagles book Super Bowl trip. If a New York team makes it to a championship game, don't expect fans from Boston, Philadelphia, or Pittsburgh to show support. However, the staff of the Empire State Building showed a shocking lack of loyalty to New York on Sunday night. Jan 29 The Giants just completed their best season in six years, posting a 10-8-1 overall record, qualifying for the postseason, and winning their first playoff game since Super Bowl XLVI over a decade ago. That doesn't mean the turnaround is complete. There is still much work to be done. The five most pressing needs the Giants need to address this offseason. NFC East News Jan 28 The Giants receiver group played surprisingly well in the face of adversity,especially in the second half of the season. If anyone had told you at the start of the 2022 season that the New York Giants leading receivers would be guys not named Kenny Golladay, Kadarius Toney, Sterling Shepard, or Wan'Dale Robinson, would you have believed them? Jan 26 The New York Giants' 2022 draft class is one that is hard to quantify. No. 5 overall pick Kayvon Thibodeaux was excellent, even if he didn't have the huge numbers to show it. No. 7 pick Evan Neal was up and down. There were flashes of promise from several players. There were far too many injuries - to the point where it will almost feel like the Giants enter the 2023 season with two rookie classes. Let's go player-by-player through the nine selections made by GM Joe Schoen in his first draft. Jan 25 Did Giants lowball Saquon Barkley during bye week contract talks? Sides 'weren't close'. It's decision time for the New York Giants. How much is too much when it comes to re-signing free-agent running back Saquon Barkley? Earlier this season, during the Giants' bye week, general manager Joe Schoen began contract talks with reps for the 25-year-old. But they didn't go far. And now we know why. Jan
24 Special
Report - Now that the dream season has popped, as do most dreams, the Giants
are faced with the reality of continuing their team-building work in order to
get better - much better? - and present a real threat to the other teams in the
suddenly powerful NFC East. Jan 23 Running back Saquon Barkley and quarterback Daniel Jones have given the Giants' front office a lot to think about in contract years. Jones was drafted in the first round a year after Barkley, but with New York declining his fifth-year option, Jones will join Barkley in free agency this offseason. Barkley has been fairly straightforward about his intentions. ones, on the other hand, has not been nearly as forward with his intentions, until very recently.

three times in a 13-7 Giants victory in MetLife Stadium in which Jones suffered
a season-ending neck injury. The two quarterbacks met again on Dec. 11. Game
19 Playoff Preview - Divison - Giants
(9-7-1) (1-0) Philadelphia (14-3) Jan 20 There were moments in Andrew Thomas' rookie season when he was unrecognizable, both to those that knew him best and to himself. His basic techniques were just off. His confidence was sagging. He looked nothing like the tackle who had been so dominant at Georgia during his three-year college career. That change, in the two years since, has been dramatic. The Giants' 23-year-old left tackle, who once made it look like the franchise made a mistake with the fourth overall pick of the 2020 draft, has been consistently and universally ranked as one of the top offensive linemen in the NFL all season long. Jan 19 What's more fun than playing the team with the best record in football twice in one year? Playing the team with the best record in football three times in one year. The New York Giants hope to make it past the divisional round by pulling off the upset against the Philadelphia Eagles. So let's rewind the tape and look at some of the trends and notables the Eagles defense showed in the first two meetings. Jan 18 By his own admission, Giants right tackle Evan Neal has had an uneven rookie campaign in which he's been learning the ins and outs of how NFL pass rushers try to make their opponents look silly. Such has been the case in particular against the Philadelphia Eagles. But Neal is not one to get discouraged. He believes the more looks he gets at them, the smoother his game will run. Jan 17 The Giants had questions about Daniel Jones as recently as the start of this season, when they declined the fifth-year option in his rookie contract. He would have to prove to the new administration that he was capable of being a franchise pillar. Jones, 25, has done that. He has checked just about every box: stayed healthy for a full season, eliminated a turnover problem, played well in key spots and now, added winning in the playoffs to his resume.

18 Playoff Preview - Wild Card - Giants
(9-7-1) Vikings (13-4) Jan 14 The 9-7-1 Giants are back in the postseason for the first time since 2016, and are hunting for their first playoffs win since 2011, the year New York won Super Bowl XLVI. After years of struggles, the Giants grabbed a wild-card spot despite playing in the highly competitive NFC East, and will try to revive the postseason success of years past with their own first-year coach, Brian Daboll. Jan 13 From the moment he set foot in the New York Giants training facility, defensive coordinator Wink Martindale set out to build an aggressive, championship-style defense that would give opposing offensive coordinators something to think about. As far as things stand now, Martindale is pleased with the overall direction the defense is headed. Jan 12
Giants
fans of a certain age will remember that neither of their last two Super Bowl
champions were regular-season powerhouses. The 2007 champs went the wildcard route
with a 10-6 record. The 2011 champs were 9-7 and got into the playoffs only by
beating the Cowboys in an all-or-nothing season finale. Jan 11 Brian Daboll coached in 30 postseason games as an NFL assistant, so he won't exactly be stepping into unfamiliar territory when the Giants visit Minnesota Sunday in an NFC Wild Card Game. He knows that while the prize gets bigger, the game at its core remains the same. So, Daboll will prepare his team this week as he did prior to each of the 17 regular-season games, meticulously studying the opponent and leaving no detail to chance. Jan 10 The NFL coaching carousel has begun to spin. There were three openings before the regular season ended, and two more have been created today with the firings of Lovie Smith and Kliff Kingsbury by the Houston Texans and Arizona Cardinals, respectively. New York Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka and defensive coordinator Wink Martindale figure to draw some interest on the head coaching interview circuit. [
