The day has finally arrived. The NFL has officially announced the schedules for all 32 teams for the upcoming season. Speaking for the New York Giants, they will open their season at home versus the Minnesota Vikings on September 8th.

Their schedule also features three prime-time games, along with an international game in Germany. The Giants’ schedule won’t be any easier this season as it is ranked the sixth-hardest in the league with their opponents having a combined win percentage of .516 last year.

Here are three challenging matchups on the Giants’ schedule for the upcoming season.

Week 15 vs Baltimore Ravens

Indeed, this game is expected to be one of the three toughest matchups for the Giants this season, aside from games against divisional rivals.

The Baltimore Ravens are coming off a disappointing season, having been defeated by the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC championship game. They are bound to be highly motivated this season. With that being said, this game is likely to play a pivotal role in the Giants’ playoff hopes, considering its difficulty and timing late in the season. We can only hope for the best outcome in this critical matchup.

Week 4 vs Dallas Cowboys

The first upcoming divisional matchup against the Dallas Cowboys at home will present a significant challenge to this highly motivated Giants team. Dallas, another playoff contender, is coming off a disappointing blowout loss to the Green Bay Packers at home.

Notably, the Cowboys have had New York’s number for a long time. The Cowboys boast one of the best defenses in the league, featuring a core that includes Micah Parsons, Trevon Diggs, DeMarcus Lawrence, and Daron Bland. On the offensive side, Dallas also poses a formidable threat with Dak Prescott, Ezekiel Elliott, and CeeDee Lamb, who are all capable of disrupting the Giants’ defensive efforts.

Week 7 vs Philadelphia Eagles

And lastly, the Giants will welcome back Saquon Barkley as a visitor when the Eagles come to town. Philadelphia is coming off a playoff loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the wild-card round. This Eagles team looks to continue their dominance against this Giants team as they have shown many times in the past. New York will have to bring their A-game when this divisional rival team arrives for the Week 7 showdown.
