2020 New York Giants season

The 2020 season was the New York Giants' 96th in the National Football League and their first under head coach Joe Judge. For the first time since 2003, Eli Manning was not on the roster, as he announced his retirement on January 22.[1][2][3]

Despite starting the season 0–5 for the second time in four years, the Giants improved on their 4–12 record from the previous season with their week 13 upset win over the Seattle Seahawks and rallied to finish 6–10, but despite beating the Dallas Cowboys, the Giants failed to win the NFC East or make the playoffs, for the fourth consecutive year following the Washington Football Team winning their final game against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 17. The Giants would've needed the Eagles to win in order to win the NFC East.

On July 20, 2020 the Giants confirmed that their home games would take place without fans in attendance due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in the United States.[4]

Watt forced an interception of Jones which sparked two Steelers touchdown drives before halftime. In the 3rd quarter, on the 19th play of an 87-yard drive, Jones was hit by Bud Dupree and forced a goal-line interception, which the Steelers kicked a field goal to make it a 2 possession game. Slayton scored a touchdown in the final minutes and made the final score 26-16 Steelers.

The Giants were down 17–0 at halftime and tightened up their defensive play in the second half, forcing two interceptions from Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky. In the final 2:02, Daniel Jones tried to complete a comeback and led the offense to the Bears' 10-yard line, but could not score, so the Giants started 0–2 for the 4th consecutive year. During the game, running back Saquon Barkley and wide receiver Sterling Shepherd were also knocked out the game with knee and toe injuries respectively. Barkley tore his ACL and did not return for the season.[8][9]

The Giants blew a 14-point lead in the second quarter. Daniel Jones' fumbling woes continued after he was sacked and Cowboys' Anthony Brown returned that same fumble for a touchdown. The Giants briefly regained the lead with 8:46 left in the 4th quarter after Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott suffered a season-ending ankle inury, but their defense could not hang on against backup quarterback Andy Dalton. The Cowboys kicked a game-winning field goal to drop the still-winless Giants to 0–5 and two games behind the 2–3 Cowboys.

Game information

After a slow start in the first half, the Giants gained momentum to take a 21–10 fourth-quarter lead. However, several mishaps would ensue for New York, including late penalties and a critical drop by Evan Engram in the 4th quarter at the Eagles 25 yard line. Philadelphia capitalized on the momentum swing and scored two unanswered touchdowns for a 22–21 lead with 40 seconds left in regulation. With one last chance to drive for a potential game-winning field goal, Daniel Jones was strip-sacked by Brandon Graham on second down. The Eagles recovered the loose ball, sealing New York's fate. The heartbreaking loss dropped the Giants to 1–6 on the season and extended their losing streak against the Eagles to eight games dating back to Week 9 of the 2016 season.

Game information

Despite leading 17–15 heading into the fourth quarter, more miscues haunted the Giants as the defense allowed Tom Brady to score 10 points and quickly fell behind 25–17. Despite the miscues, the Giants drove down the field with Daniel Jones finding Golden Tate in the endzone with 28 seconds left. However, during the two-point conversion, controversy arose after the referees picked up a flag for an Antoine Winfield Jr. pass interference on Dion Lewis in the endzone as Winfield made a deflection on a Daniel Jones pass. This forced the Giants to attempt an onside kick and could not recover the kick ending the game. The Giants dropped 1–7 for the third time in four seasons.[10][11]

The Giants defense forced three turnovers in the 2nd half, the first an interception by Niko Lalos, a rookie from Dartmouth making his NFL debut, and a forced fumble later by Logan Ryan which he also recovered. The Bengals cut into the Giants 19-10 lead in the final minutes and had a chance to win the game on the final drive, but backup quarterback Brandon Allen was sacked by Jabaal Sheard and lost the ball, which was recovered by the Giants. Daniel Jones injured his hamstring in the win.[15]

Game information

The Giants did not have Daniel Jones as their starting quarterback and were double-digit underdogs going into a cross-country battle with the Seahawks. In only his second appearance with the team and first start, Colt McCoy and the Giants shocked the NFL with one of the biggest upsets of the 2020 season. McCoy won his first game as a starting quarterback since October 27, 2014, when he was with the Washington Redskins. The Giants defense contained Russell Wilson all game long, sacking him 5 times and forcing 2 takeaways. Seattle was leading 5–0 at halftime, but in the third quarter, the Giants' rushing attack broke through with a 60-yard run by Wayne Gallman which set up two Alfred Morris touchdowns on back-to-back possessions. With a 17–12 lead and under two minutes to play, the defense was able to stop Wilson one last time. With the upset win, the Giants improved to 5–7, beat the Seahawks for the first time since 2010, and earned their longest winning streak since 2016. In addition, New York would take sole possession of first place in the NFC East, though the Washington Football Team would move back into a first-place tie with the Giants the following night with an upset win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Giants average starting field position was from their own 17-yard line while the Cardinals' started from their own 47-yard line all game. The Giants struggled from start to finish in an uphill battle as Daniel Jones and the offense struggled to move the ball with only 4 first downs in the first half. The defense kept the game competitive as long as they could with an early goal line stand, but were overmatched in a 26-7 blowout loss. The Giants snapped their four-game winning streak, dropped to 5-8 on the season, and lost Jones to another leg injury. New York also dropped to second place in the NFC East when the Washington Football Team defeated the San Francisco 49ers later that afternoon to take sole possession of first place.

Before Week 14, the NFL flexed the Giants-Browns game into the Sunday Night Football slot, replacing the San Francisco 49ers visiting the Dallas Cowboys. It was the first time the Giants have played on Sunday Night since the 2018 season.[16]

The Giants did not have Daniel Jones due to his injury and also lost offensive coordinator Jason Garrett and defensive back James Bradberry who both contracted COVID-19. Former Browns draft pick Colt McCoy and former head coach Freddie Kitchens were promoted to starting QB and offensive coordinator, respectively. The Giants opened the game with great field position and drove into the red zone only to turn the ball over on downs on a fake field goal attempt. The defense forced a turnover on downs of their own and the Giants took advantage of the ensuing field position and led 3–0 after the first quarter. Baker Mayfield then got hot, leading the Browns on three 10+ play touchdown drives, two of them for 95 yards. The Giants offense struggled to gain that kind of momentum and the Browns won 20–6, dropping New York to 5–9 and losing to the Browns for the first time since 2008.

Game information

The Ravens scored on all 4 drives in the first half and all of them were 10+ plays. Daniel Jones made his third start in 5 weeks and could only muster 89 yards on 8 completions in the first half. A tired Giants defense couldn't keep up, and the Ravens became the first team since 2008 to have 3 players run for 75+ yards in the same game (Jackson, Dobbins, and Edwards).

In the loss, kicker Graham Gano tied a Giants franchise record with his 29th consecutive field goal.

Despite the loss, the Giants remained in playoff contention with Washington's loss to the Panthers, and the Eagles loss to the Cowboys.

The Giants aim to be the first 6 win team in the playoffs other than those in the strike-shortened 1982 season, and the winner of the NFC East will be the first team in NFL history to make the playoffs after a 2-7 start.

With the win, the Giants improved to 6–10 and snapped a 7-game losing streak against the Dallas Cowboys, which dates back to Week 14 of the 2016 season. They also won all three home games against the NFC East opponents in a season for the first time since 2005. However, Washington won its game later in the evening, claiming the division title and eliminating New York from the postseason. Had Washington lost, the Giants would have won the division based on tie-breakers and become the first team in NFL history with double-digit losses to make the playoffs.[17]
