I think one of the most misleading stats in the NFL is when you look at a team’s strength of schedule before any season begins. This is because you truly never know how good a team is until you get through the first 3-4 games. That is usually when the bad teams are separated from the good ones. But even then you don’t know which teams are the best.
Now when looking at the 2021 NFL season, the Giants have the fourth easiest schedule in the NFL, according to Giants Wire.
Of course a big part of this is due to the fact that the NFC East was so bad in 2020 and the best team, the Washington Football Team, finished with a 7-9 record.
