With the full New York Giants 2026-2027 schedule now released, it's time to gauge your optimism for the upcoming season. Are you seeing a playoff push or a rebuilding year? Cast your vote in the poll below to predict how many games the Giants will win in John Harbaugh's debut season as head coach.
Chris kicked things off with an optimistic game-by-game breakdown, projecting a 10-7 record. Now, it's only fair that I share my own predictions—and yes, these are as hopeful as they come. Here’s my take on the season ahead:
Week 1: Dallas Cowboys (Sunday Night Football, Sept. 13)
Win (1-0). The optimist in me sees a strong start to the Harbaugh era, though this one could easily swing the other way.
Week 2: @ Los Angeles Rams (Monday Night Football, Sept. 21)
Loss (1-1). Tough road test against a solid Rams squad.
Week 3: Tennessee Titans (Sept. 27)
Win (2-1). I can't pick Robert Saleh and Brian Daboll to return to MetLife and win—they rarely did as head coaches in that building.
Week 4: Arizona Cardinals (Oct. 4)
Win (3-1). The Giants need a hot start, and I think they get it. Maintaining that momentum is the real challenge.
Week 5: @ Washington Commanders (Oct. 11)
Loss (3-2). Division road games are never easy.
Week 6: New Orleans Saints (Oct. 18)
Win (4-2). Jaxson Dart and the Giants exorcise the ghost of last season's five-turnover nightmare.
Week 7: @ Houston Texans (Oct. 25)
Loss (4-3). A tough matchup on the road against a rising AFC contender.
Week 9: @ Philadelphia Eagles (Nov. 8)
Loss (4-4). As much as I want to predict a win—and believe the Eagles won't be the powerhouse they've been—I can't pick the Giants to win in Philly for a second straight season.
Week 10: Commanders (Thursday Night Football, Nov. 12)
Win (5-4). A prime-time bounce-back at home.
Week 11: Jacksonville Jaguars (Nov. 22)
Win (6-4). The Giants keep rolling with another winnable home game.
So, what's your call? Are you riding with the optimist or taking a more cautious approach? Drop your prediction in the poll and let us know how many wins you see for Big Blue this season.
