Giants 2012 Schedule is Toughest in League - GMEN HQ - GMEN HQ - A NY Giants Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and more.

]]> The Giants had a tough tough road to the playoffs last year, and this year will be no different as they have been recognized as having the toughest strength of schedule in the NFL.  Now you have all heard me say many times that it’s not who you play, but when you play them, and this will certainly hold true this coming season.

The one difference this coming season however is the amount of travel the Giants will be doing.  Last season they had trips to Arizona, San Francisco, New Orleans, and Dallas besides the local trips to New England, Washington, and Philly.  This season they travel to Atlanta, Carolina, Baltimore, Cincinnati, and San Francisco besides the standard Washington, Philly, and Dallas.

The Giants have no fear of the road as we know, but these quick trips up and down the East Coast are certainly more manageable than the cross country flying they have done in the recent past.  Add to this the fact that they will be home for their final two pre-season games and their first two home games, the schedule becomes a bit easier to handle.  SO, despite playing in one of the more competitive divisions in football, and taking it’s turn against the improved AFC North, the Giants do have some advantages in their favor this coming season.

Giants Pre-Season Opponents Announced: It’s a Local Affair - GMEN HQ - GMEN HQ - A NY Giants Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and more.

]]> We did a study of the 2012 New York Giants regular season a few weeks back, and spoke about the small amount of travel the Giants would be required to do during the season, with only one trip west of Dallas.  The pre-season opponents were announced today and the travel schedule will again be light.  With the annual Super …sorry… Snoopy bowl being played as a Jet home game, the Giants benefit by playing three pre-season games in MetLife Stadium.  The other contest will be held in Jacksonville, and that will be in week one, so the Giants will be home for their final three pre-season games, and then open at home on Wednesday September 5th against Dallas.

Week One: In Jacksonville TBA

Week Two: At Jets TBA

Week Three:  Friday August 24th vs Chicago on CBS

Week Four: Wednesday August 29th vs New England
