Here’s how the Giants make the playoffs

The Arizona Cardinals did the New York Giants a big favor on Sunday night by defeating the Philadelphia Eagles on the road at Lincoln Financial Field.

Even with this help, the Giants will have a hard time making the playoffs this season after their loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday afternoon.

The following needs to happen in order for Big Blue to win the NFC East and make it to the playoffs:

  • Giants must win their final two games against the Vikings and Eagles and finish with an 8-8 record.
  • Washington must lose their final two games (Eagles & Cowboys) and finish 7-9 since they own every tie-breaker against New York.
