2024 NFL Strength of Schedule

June 4, 2024

The Giants’ 2024 schedule is out. So, how tough is it?

Based on combined winning percentages from the 2023 season, the Giants are tied with the Bills for the sixth-toughest schedule (.516). The Browns (.547) top the list while the Saints and Falcons have the “easiest” lineup at .453.

The Giants finished third in the NFC East with a 6-11 record in 2023. They will play nine games at home and eight on the road in 2024. In addition to their normal divisional matchups, the Giants will face the entire NFC South and AFC North. They will also face the same-place finishers from the NFC North (Vikings) at home and NFC West (Seahawks) on the road.

2024 NFL strength of schedule listed from hardest to easiest, based on opponents’ 2023 winning percentages:

  • 1. Browns .547
  • 2. Ravens .536
  • 3. Steelers .533
  • T-4. Packers .526
  • T-4. Texans .526
  • T-6. Bills .516
  • T-6. Giants .516
  • T-8. Jaguars .512
  • T-8. Raiders .512
  • T-8. Patriots .512
  • 11. Lions .509
  • T-12. Cowboys .505
  • T-12. Rams .505
  • T-12. Jets .505
  • T-12. 49ers .505
  • T-16. Bengals .502
  • T-16. Chiefs .502

  • T-21. Eagles .491
  • T-21. Titans .491
  • T-24. Cardinals .488
  • T-24. Dolphins .488
  • T-24. Seahawks .488
  • T-27. Chargers .478
  • T-27. Buccaneers .478
  • T-29. Panthers .467
  • T-29. Bears .467
  • T-31. Falcons .453
  • T-31. Saints .453

With that in mind, it’s never wise to jump to conclusions based off previous seasons, especially in the NFL.

Since 1990 (34 straight seasons), at least four teams have qualified for the playoffs in every season that were not in the postseason the year before. Additionally, in 19 of the past 21 seasons, at least one team finished in first place of their division the season after finishing in last or tied for last place. The Texans accomplished the feat in 2023.

HOW THE NFL SCHEDULE IS MADE

The league’s 32 teams are split into two conferences — the American Football Conference (AFC) and the National Football Conference (NFC). The 16 teams in each conference are split into the East, North, South and West divisions; every division has four teams.

Every team will play 17 regular-season games with one bye week. Teams will alternate seasons where they host nine regular-season games and one preseason game, or eight regular-season games and two preseason games.

Here’s a breakdown of how each team’s opponents are set:

  • Six games against divisional opponents — two games per team, one at home and one on the road.
  • Four games against teams from a division within its conference — two games at home and two on the road.
  • Four games against teams from a division in the other conference — two games at home and two on the road.
  • Two games against teams from the two remaining divisions in its own conference — one game at home and one on the road. Matchups are based on division ranking from the previous season.
  • The 17th game is an additional game against a non-conference opponent from a division that the team is not scheduled to play. Matchups are based on division ranking from the previous season.
