NY Giants schedule: Ranking 2021’s opponents by toughness
By Carly Mersky
13. Philadelphia Eagles
The second highest ranking is the Philadelphia Eagles.
The Eagles finished last in the NFC East last year with a record of 4-11. The NY Giants will be playing the Eagles at home on November 28 and then away on December 26. We do not know how new head coach Nick Sirianni will do, since this is his first time as a head coach and quarterback Jalen Hurts is facing a similar “prove it” season that Daniel Jones has ahead of him in New York.
Last year in the four out of 16 games Hurts played, he would have finished 32nd in passer rating, 23rd in yards per attempt, 21st in interception rate, and he completed just 52% of his passes. It is up in the air for how this team will do, but right now it looks like the Giants are in better shape.
