The 2016 season is the New York Giants' 92nd season in the National Football League, their seventh playing their home games at MetLife Stadium and the first under head coach Ben McAdoo.
The Giants began 2–0 before failing on a three-game losing streak to the Redskins, Vikings, and Packers. The Giants rebounded and went on a six-game winning streak for the first time since 2010 before falling to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 13. The Giants then upset the 11–1 Dallas Cowboys in Week 14 to improve to 9–4. With their Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys, the Giants clinched a winning season for the first time since 2012 and also swept the Cowboys for the first time since 2011. The Giants got their 10th win of the season in Week 15 having a 10 win season for the first time since 2010. Their 7–1 record at home is their best home record since Metlife Stadium opened in 2010.
Despite losing to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 16, the Giants clinched a playoff trip for the first time since their last Super Bowl season when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost to the New Orleans Saints 31–24. They will play the Packers in the Wild Card round, a place they won during their 2011 Super Bowl run.

It was the first time in a season that the Giants face the Redskins, who added Josh Norman. Over the last nine months, Odell Beckham Jr. and Norman had a fierce rivalry between each other.
