The Giants went 11-5 season, and they did so while failing to score more than 20 offensive points in their final six games and 10 of 17. They also were rather successful in close games, finishing 6-2 in games decided by five points or less.
Pro Football Focus believes that good fortune is about to snap back on the Giants in 2017. The analytics site not only has the Giants failing to return to the playoffs this coming season, but it says they will stumble to an 8-8 finish and not even finish in the top half of the NFC.
