Survey – How many games will the Giants add to their win total in 2026?

Nobody seems quite sure what to make of the New York Giants as we head into the 2026 season.

There was excitement early on when the Giants landed John Harbaugh to be their new head coach. That excitement subsided some when Harbaugh hired Matt Nagy as his offensive coordinator after Todd Monken became the new head coach of the Cleveland Browns. Likewise, it seems there was disappointment when Harbaugh didn’t immediately use his power blow up the roster and shove Joe Schoen out the door.

Instead, the Giants only tinkered with the top of their depth chart in free agency.

The Giants were praised for their draft class, particularly adding Arvell Reese, Sisi Mauigoa, and Colton Hood, and it was generally heralded as one of the league’s best draft hauls. Since then, however, the Giants’ rookies haven’t gotten much conversation at the national level.

That largely seems to be due to a perception that the Giants’ 4-13 record in 2025 is all there is to the team.

This week, Bill Barnwell at ESPN wrote that he believes the Giants will be one of the teams to improve and exceed expectations this year.

Barnwell argues that based on their point differential, the Giants should have been a seven-win team last year, and simply regressing to the mean would give them a three-game improvement over last year.

Back in May I wrote that last year’s Giants are an extreme statistical outlier to lose as many games they should have won, and they’re better than their record says they are. Furthermore, the Giants are in a much better spot than they would be had they won seven games last year. After all, they might not have fired Brian Daboll, nor would they have been in position to draft Reese, Mauigoa, or Hood.

So with that in mind, this week we want to ask you how many more games you think the Giants will win in 2026 than in 2025?

Do you think they’ll improve their win total by six or more games, breaking into the double digits with 10+ wins?
Do you think they’ll win four or five more games and finish as an eight- or nine-win team?
Do you think they’ll only win two or three more games and just finish with the six- or seven-win total they should have in 2025?
Do you think they’ll fail to improve at all, adding zero or one win to their 2025 total?
Do you think the Giants will regress and win fewer than four games in 2026?
