The Giants are still the favorites, but they need help
Week 15 was as close to a disaster for the Giants’ draft position as possible without a “moral victory” over the penalty-ridden Baltimore Ravens.
The biggest blow of the weekend was the Las Vegas Raiders losing a winnable game to the Atlanta Falcons, falling 15-9. Beyond that, several of the teams the Giants needed to lose to lower their strength of schedule came away with victories. Because of that, while the Raiders’ strength of schedule stayed nearly the same (dropping just 0.001), the Giants’ strength of schedule has risen to 0.
